Contact UsWhat Is A Diode Laser?
A diode laser is a breakthrough technology that can be used in several dental and periodontal treatments. Using energy and light pulses, a diode laser provides minimally invasive treatments for the delicate tissue of the mouth. The Dentist of Allen uses BIOLASE diode laser tools for effective and safe treatments, including cavity removal and preparation. The benefits of this technology can shorten procedure times and reduce the need for sutures. It can also keep bleeding and the risk of disease after a procedure to a minimum.

What Are the Benefits of Diode Lasers?
A diode laser is a small device that we will use to care for your gums. Prior to any treatment with a diode laser, you may be given a local anesthetic to help make the process more comfortable. Energy from the laser is released in short pulses and should reduce the duration of your treatment. The innovative technology is mild and results in less pain and discomfort during and following your appointment.
Following any procedure using a diode laser, you might experience swollen or tender gums, but there is typically no need for stitches and bleeding will be limited. If your pain is more than you can tolerate, we can prescribe pain medication or offer you non-prescription pain relievers. We will also provide you with aftercare instructions to speed up your recovery. We may schedule a follow-up appointment based on the treatment you received so we can monitor your healing.

About UsDiode Laser FAQs
Is laser dentistry safe?
Laser dentistry, including diode laser treatments, is considered a safe and effective option for various dental procedures. Diode lasers are designed to target soft tissues with precision, minimizing damage to surrounding areas and promoting faster recovery. When performed by a qualified dental professional at The Dentist of Allen, diode laser treatment offers a less invasive alternative to traditional methods with reduced discomfort.
Does diode laser treatment hurt?
Diode laser treatment is generally well-tolerated by most patients and may cause minimal discomfort during the procedure. Many patients report feeling a mild warming sensation rather than pain, and the precision of the laser reduces the need for invasive tools. Additionally, diode lasers often result in quicker healing times and less post-treatment sensitivity compared to traditional methods.
How long does diode laser treatment last?
The results of diode laser treatment for soft tissue procedures can be long-lasting, depending on the specific treatment and individual oral health. For treatments like gum contouring or removing soft tissue lesions, the outcomes are typically durable when paired with proper oral hygiene. Routine dental check-ups at The Dentist of Allen will help maintain the results and monitor any areas treated with the diode laser.
