FRENOTOMY USING DIODE LASER
After evolution of LASERS, conventional techniques are replaced by LASER. PIOON Laser offers different wavelengths like 450nm/810nm or 980nm. In this case before the frenotomy procedure tension test was performed to detect the abnormal frena visually by applying tension over the frenum.
What is Operculectomy and why is it performed
Operculectomy is the procedure of surgically removing the operculum or the flap of gum that partially covers over a tooth. This procedure treats pericoronitis, a condition characterized by pain and inflammation of the operculum. Pericoronitis typically occurs among young adults, especially those whose wisdom tooth is starting to erupt.
7 Benefits of Using Laser Therapy for Periodontal Disease
For periodontists, lasers could be the newest and most accurate way of performing dental work.
The classical Periodontal treatment protocol
As periodontitis usually occurs in the context of untreated periodontal disease, it is essential to carry out periodontal treatment of the whole mouth prior to oral implant placement or treatment of periodontitis.
Laser therapy for peri-implantitis
It is well known that the popularity of oral implants is increasing every year as people's living standards improve. The number of patients with peri-implantitis has increased rapidly in recent years due to the treatment conditions and the lack of awareness of patient protection at a later stage. If peri-implantitis is not treated promptly and effectively, it can lead to the loss of the implant.
Applications of Low-Level laser therapy in dental practice
Numerous studies have been performed on the applications of low level lasers in patient pain reduction. Mechanisms of pain reduction with therapeutic lasers and their application are expressed, and the studies realized in this field are presented.
