Laser Dentistry

Dental lasers have revolutionized dentistry with treatment that is faster, more effective and satisfying to patients. PDHA is using the top-of-the-line dental laser, Fotona Lightwalker. This is the highest performance ER:YAG and ND:YAG for expanded dual wavelength treatment options. This provides patients with a comfortable dental experience that delivers precise, quicker and stunning results.

Benefits of laser therapy consists of treatment that may not need the use of local anesthesia; it will decrease chances of postoperative issues due to the disinfection effects of the laser. The laser can be used on teeth (hard tissue) to remove the decay that caused the cavity as well as soft tissue for frenum modifications, tooth exposure, quick healing of oral ulcers (canker sores) and gingival augmentation. The laser will stimulate natural healing by reducing inflammation.

The Fotona laser is used for Photo Biomodulation (PBM), which is noninvasive, low-level therapeutic light therapy to help reduce TMJ discomfort as well as sleep apnea, Babylase and Oralase.
