Lasers used in dentistry serve the diagnostic purposes as well as the therapy. Taking into consideration the need of their constant application to improve the quality of treatment, each operational station in our Clinic is equipped with diagnostic and therapeutic laser.
Laser diagnostics
It is based on the phenomenon of differences in fluorescence measurements between healthy and sick tissues.
Effectiveness of examination of early stages of dental caries accounts for 90% (for comparison eye and mirror examination – 12%, radiologic test – 60%)
Detection of early dental caries changes enables to treat them non-invasively and painlessly
Possibility to monitor effectiveness of introduced prophylaxis and hygiene
System ASEPTIM – metoda P.A.D. (Photo-Activated Oral Desinfection)
ASEPTIM system enables painless non-invasive and effective dental hard tissue profound disinfection (elimination of 99,9% bacteria) with laser beam and special Aseptim solution. Nowadays, it is reckoned to be the most effective disinfection device in dentistry according to the research. Each dental work station is equipped with ASEPTIM system.
Used in:
early caries changes
tissue disinfection before fillings’ placement, protection from secondary caries
effective disinfection of root canals during endodontic treatment.
KEY LASER III therapeutic laser
The system includes 2 types of lasers. The first one enables localization of pathologic changes with laser beam, and the second one removes these changes without damaging any healthy tissue. This system is based on the principle of automatic information and feedback reaction (detection with simultaneous processing).
The exceptionality of this system, in comparison to others, is recognized in the fact that it does not cause temperature increase and tissue overheating. Thanks to lack of necrotic regions (carbonization), healing of wounds and treated sites is quick.
This is a laser of versatile appliance in dentistry:
processing of dental hard tissues (used instead of dental drill)
sterilization and sterile drying of the surface of tooth and of root canals
treatment of oversensitivity of dental necks
precise incision of frenum, gingivoplasty and osteoplasty, excision of pathologic changes
abscess incision, treatment of fistulas, aphthae, herpes virus (herpes)
surgical procedures
laser non-invasive purification of teeth surfaces along with sterilization of gingival pockets
