A dental laser is a technology that produces a focused beam of concentrated light. During surgical and periodontal treatment, this beam typically functions as a precise cutting tool in place of a traditional blade. Because of this, procedures performed with a dental laser can be less invasive than conventional surgical methods, which many patients find preferable.

Using lasers for dental treatment can allow many procedures to be completed quietly, with reduced discomfort, less bleeding, quicker healing, and, in many cases, fewer total visits.
