The technology has been used in many areas of dental medicine because of its wonderful qualities. Our patients are delighted to be treated with this sophisticated technology since it has enhanced the experience of dental treatment. Laser dentistry technology has no doubt been one of our major assets that have let us treat our patients better and quicker.

Why laser technology is helpful?

Laser technology makes use of a beam of monochromatic light which is shined over the treatment location to achieve the desired functions (drilling, reshaping and piercing through soft tissues). Thanks to this technology, the tasks that required use of mechanical tools are easily completed using lasers today. Following are the fine qualities of lasers which makes them preferable over other options.

All these advantages have increased the use of lasers in many areas of dental medicine.

Laser technology – Common applications

Laser technology has been utilized for a wide range of applications in dental medicine. They are more commonly used for procedures that involve soft tissues.

Cosmetic treatment

Laser technology can be used to reshape the gum-line and enhance the smile. This treatment is recommended when the patient has a gummy smile. Teeth whitening is another treatment procedure where laser technology is used to clear stains.

Periodontal treatment

Lasers are used to cure infected gum tissues. Lasers can easily penetrate through the gum pockets and treat infected tissues to kill bacteria. The laser beam is highly accurate and effective in clearing bacteria from gum pockets.

Fotona - SmoothLase, LipLase, NightLase

SmoothLase

It is a non-surgical method to de-age your face and give you a more youthful feel and appearance. It stimulates the natural development of collagen in the areas around the mouth and chin. We become very obsessed with every wrinkle with each passing birthday. To help combat the visible signs of age, Synergy Dental Group is excited to offer our patients an innovative way to get rid of wrinkles and get a youthful appearance.

NightLase

A laser treatment for increasing the quality of a patient's sleep. It reduces the effects of sleep apnea and decreases the amplitude of snoring by means of a gentle, laser-induced tightening effect caused by the contraction of collagen in the oral mucosa tissue.

Liplase

It's a non-invasive plumping for fuller lips without injectables. In contrast to injectable fillers, the LipLase treatment is non-invasive, and there is nothing artificial as patients develop their own collagen in their lips. One can notice an immediate response and get fuller and smoother lips. The process stimulates collagen remodeling which initiates new collagen synthesis with no needles and no downtime.
