Hi
I have a question!
We are considering buying a Biolase laser for the practice.
The main benefits I imagine for my patients are
a) the potential to have teeth restored with no need for injections
b) no need for the old style drill (although it would still be needed to remove old amalgams and crowns etc). I think that this would make the actual experience easier to tolerate.
c) it does have many other applications eg desensitising sensitive teeth, soft tissue work with no need for traditional surgery techniques etc etc.
So my question for you guys is-
'Would you be interested in laser dentistry if it was an option given to you by your dentist?'.
I'd also be interested to hear any comments from any of you who have had experience having work done with a laser- or from any dentists who use them.
Thanks!!
Dr Mike
