As a BIOLASE Laser Dentist with the Epic X Laser (940nm wavelength diode laser) - a soft tissue diode laser which helps provide an advanced, highly effective and more gentle experience in oral soft tissue surgery, periodontal treatment, endodontic disinfection as well as laser pain therapy and laser teeth whitening, faster and with less to no sensitivity.

The charm of soft tissue lasers in dentistry ranges from treatment of oral ulcers and gum diseases to removal of tongue ties; depigmentation of gums to smile designing; reduction of gummy smiles, to powerful laser disinfection of root canals and perio pockets. This laser also has the ability to seal blood vessels to achieve haemostasis, where the dentist can work in a cleaner, bloodless space, as it seals lymphatic vessels and therefore without the need for stitches. This all-round minimally invasive laser dentistry decreases post-surgical swelling and speeds up recovery.  It makes many once lengthy surgeries traditionally done in theatre now possible more gently and quicker in the dental chair.

Child-friendly and a more gentle dental experience for all through modern technology, BIOLASE dental lasers.

ABOUT LASER TEETH WHITENING WITH BIOLASE LASER & GEL

The laser energy activates the LaserWhite20 whitening gel containing photo initiators to accelerate the whitening process. This helps ensure that whitening is as quick as possible, without pain or damage to the surrounding gums. With the Biolase EPIC laser, a full whitening procedure, lightening teeth by 4-6 shades, in just 30 minutes of active treatment time. This is faster than other in-office whitening systems and allows patients to get back to daily life (with a brighter smile) as soon as possible.

BENEFITS OF LASERS OVER CONVENTIONAL SURGERY 

• Lasers have an ability to seal blood vessels thereby achieving haemostasis
• Lasers seal lymphatic vessels, so decrease post-surgical swelling
• They seal nerve fibres thereby reducing operative and post-operative pain
• Reduces mechanical trauma to tissue
• Less scarring and greater precision because of the monochromic coherence qualities
• Reduces bacterial counts thereby promoting predictable healing with minimal post-operative inflammation
