In a recent study published by Stephen Soos a number of dental procedures were studied to determine the effects of LLLT treatments on patients. It has been theorized that this therapy can be used in place of many types of traditional treatments. In many cases the LLLT treatments showed an improvement in the heal time and pain management in patients without doing additional damage to the surrounding tissue, tooth or bed. If results are conclusive it is likely that these treatments will be applied on a more widespread basis. One of the fields that LLLT in dentistry has seen significant success is in combating dentinal hypersensitivity. This condition is described as the breakdown of a tooth, either from damage or injury, causing the sensitive nerves inside to become exposed to the surrounding environment. This can cause discomfort for the patient when environmental factors such as cold foods come in contact with the nerve.

Patients suffering from oral herpes have also seen benefits from using LLLT. Those who...more

So when you are missing a tooth, or teeth, dental implants have been proven to be a reliable and long lasting replacement for missing teeth. What are Dental Implants?Dental implants are long lasting tooth root replacements that are securely placed into the jawbone to replicate the root of a single pre-existing tooth or multiple teeth. They are natural looking-virtually indistinguishable from other teeth-and provide the same function as your natural tooth root while preventing further decay, dental disease and bone deterioration. The dental implant procedure is a multi-step process that involves placing metal anchors into the bone of the jaw, allowing the anchor and bone to fuse, placing an extension in the anchor, and fixing a prosthetic tooth, or...more
