What is Conservative Dentistry?

Conservative dentistry focuses on preserving as much of your natural tooth structure as possible. Traditionally, treating cavities or decay meant removing large portions of the tooth. With the Fotona LightWalker, we can precisely target decay and damaged areas, reducing the need to remove healthy tissue.

How the LightWalker Makes a Difference

The LightWalker’s advanced laser technology allows us to treat areas with unmatched accuracy. Unlike traditional drills, the laser can gently and efficiently remove decay while minimizing damage to the surrounding healthy tooth structure. This results in smaller fillings, less sensitivity, and quicker recovery.

Benefits of Laser-Assisted Conservative Dentistry

  • Minimal Discomfort: Laser treatments are often painless and can reduce the need for anesthesia.
  • Less Invasive: More precise treatment means less trauma to your tooth and surrounding tissue.
  • Faster Healing: Since lasers are less invasive, patients usually experience quicker recovery times.

If you’re looking for dental treatments that prioritize your comfort and the long-term health of your teeth, laser-assisted conservative dentistry at Excel Dental is an excellent choice. Schedule a consultation today to learn more!
