What is Laser Dentistry?
Laser dentistry uses focused light energy as part of certain dental procedures, often alongside conventional techniques rather than replacing them. It's a tool used for specific, selected cases — not a universal treatment for every dental concern.
How Dental Lasers May Be Used
Depending on the clinical situation, lasers may be used in soft-tissue procedures, gum contouring, and as part of periodontal treatment. Whether a laser-assisted approach is appropriate for you is decided after an in-person examination.
Laser Dentistry for Gum Care
One of the more common applications is in gum care — supporting treatment of certain gum conditions with precision. Dr. Hemanth Katta evaluates each case individually to determine whether a laser-assisted or conventional approach is more suitable.
