One of the most significant benefits of laser dentistry is there is much less pain. As a result, patients rely less on anesthesia. Another benefit is laser dentistry reduces stress and anxiety among patients who worry about having tissue removed or their teeth drilled. Furthermore, patients will experience lesser swelling and bleeding during soft tissue procedures and may not require sutures. Finally, lasers are precise, thus reducing risk, and sterilize gums to reduce the chance of infection.
