Laser Dentist Specialist
When it comes to dentistry, there are many different approaches to how to operate in a procedure. You may be familiar with standard dentistry, but you may not have ever experienced laser dentistry, like that used by the teeth-saving specialists at Greater Endodontics.
Our laser dentist specialists use the most advanced technology, including erbium surgical lasers that are specifically tailored for dental procedures and oral surgeries. Laser dentistry is different from traditional/standard dentistry by allowing a more comfortable operation. It also is less painful, reduces the risk of infection and facilitates faster recoveries with fewer complications.

At Greater Endodontics, you don’t need to feel nervous, anxious or worried about whatever dental procedure you may be undergoing. We have seasoned professionals in endodontics that allow for smooth execution and more-than-professional results.
Our team at Greater Endodontics believes in staying on the cutting edge of technology and techniques. We use only the most innovative, well-researched and successful solutions to provide our patients with the best care possible.
Why Should You Opt For Laser Dentistry?
If you’re considering visiting a laser dentist specialist, it’s worth doing a bit more research about the subject. There are plenty of reasons and advantages to getting laser dentistry:
Increased Precision
Laser dentistry offers incredible accuracy which allows our laser dentist specialists here at Greater Endodontics to more precisely remove and reshape affected soft tissue that would otherwise not be possible using standard instruments. To have this level of precision is optimum in dentistry as it also reduces trauma to the overall tooth and gum structure with targeted dental repair.
Reduces Infection
Teeth don’t have an immune system or blood supply, which means that when a tooth dies there are no white blood cells to fight infection. This leaves the area around the tooth vulnerable. Laser dentist specialists use laser beams to light up and help sterilize the infected areas that your body’s defense mechanisms can’t reach. The risk for complications is reduced as the laser is able to pinpoint and destroy harmful bacteria and infection while eliminating the risk of damaging the healthy tooth.
Faster Recovery and Less Pain
Laser dentistry allows for accelerated healing. How? Laser therapy results in accelerated healing by reducing inflammation, minimizing trauma to surrounding teeth and tissue. This activates the immune system, and stimulates tissue regeneration. The healing process is less painful as laser treatments are much less invasive and reduce the need for outdated dental tools and techniques.
Other Benefits of Using Laser Dentistry
- Less need for sutures when using soft tissue lasers.
- Less bleeding due to the lasers promoting clotting of the blood.
- Anesthesia may be completely unnecessary with some dental procedures when using laser dentistry.

As you can see, there are plenty of reasons to opt for laser dentistry with one of our capable specialists. But it’s also important to assess the risks and disadvantages of laser dentistry.
Some Downsides Of Laser Dentistry
- Laser dentistry cannot be used on teeth that already have certain types of filling (such as metal amalgam).
- Lasers can be intense and the use of hard lasers can negatively affect your dental health. They have sometimes been known to injure tooth pulp.
- While some laser procedures don’t require any anesthesia at all, there are some that still require anesthesia. It’s important to consult your endodontist about this.
- While laser dentistry tends to make traditional dentistry tools obsolete, sometimes the use of drills are needed. Particularly in the case of completing fillings, shaping, adjusting the bite and polishing the filling.
- Depending on what dental procedure you need, you should know that some procedures cannot be done with lasers. This also depends on the condition of your teeth and gums.
- As with any procedure, there is a risk of injury and with laser it’s no different as there is a risk of gum injury.
