Frequently Asked Questions
What is laser-assisted dental surgery?
It uses dental laser energy as a tool in selected soft-tissue procedures. The diagnosis and intended procedure determine whether laser assistance is appropriate.
Which procedures may use a dental laser?
Selected gum, frenum, soft-tissue or lesion procedures may be suitable. A laser does not replace examination, pathology assessment or conventional surgery when those are required.
Is laser-assisted surgery pain-free?
No procedure should be described as pain-free. Anaesthesia and comfort measures are planned as appropriate, and temporary discomfort can occur during healing.
Is everyone suitable for laser-assisted surgery?
No. Suitability depends on tissue type, diagnosis, procedure, location, medical factors and available evidence. Another surgical method may be more appropriate.
What aftercare is needed after laser-assisted surgery?
Follow the procedure-specific cleaning, diet, medication and review instructions. Contact the clinic about unexpected bleeding, swelling, pain or delayed healing.
