Making Lasers an Integral Part of Our Mentor Dental Practice
Lasers have revolutionized general dental procedures, cosmetic dentistry treatments, and restorative dentistry techniques, substantially reducing and sometimes even eliminating discomfort from complex procedures. In addition, lasers have reduced the amount of time patients have to commit to these procedures, both in the office and during the recovery stage. Truly, lasers have transformed the way people think about dentistry.
This is why we have developed our current dental practice around our state-of-the-art lasers. While many practices have tentatively offered laser dentistry treatments, we have fully embraced the advantages of these technological advances, using dental lasers throughout our Mentor practice and across a wide range of dentistry procedures.
Our lasers assist in our mission of early detection and treatment of decay, gum disease, and other oral health problems. Because we are proficient in using lasers for both hard and soft tissue work, we have been able to reduce the need for drills at our practice; indeed, in many instances, we are able to treat patients without anesthesia. At our Mentor office, which serves the greater Cleveland area, laser dentistry treatments have made it possible for us to offer an even more pleasant, relaxing, and effective dental experience to our valued patients and friends.
Dr. Carosello's Experience as a Laser Dentist
To better serve you and all of his Cleveland area patients, Dr. Carosello is an accredited member of the Academy of Laser Dentistry. He also participates in numerous continuing education courses each year to stay abreast of the most recent advances in laser dentistry treatments. As a result, Dr. Carosello is constantly refining his dentistry techniques in a variety of procedures, including treatment of periodontal disease, tooth decay, and aphthous ulcers (or canker sores), as well as preparation of fillings and teeth whitening at his Cleveland area office.
Laser Dentistry Techniques to Help Our Young Patients
Laser dentistry treatments can be used for patients of all ages. Indeed, we want to ensure the continuing dental health of all our patients in Mentor and the greater Cleveland area. Laser treatments allow us to consistently do just that.
However, dental lasers allow Dr. Carosello to identify tooth decay and restore health to teeth in pediatric patients, frequently before the problem progresses and require a more involved procedure.
Thanks to the laser services he offers, Dr. Carosello can usually treat children comfortably without the use of anesthesia in a single office visit. It is our belief when a child experiences little or no pain and does not have to encounter anesthesia needles, he or she will be more willing to return to the dentist. This is our ultimate goal with younger patients.
Laser Dentistry for Soft Tissue Surgery
Oral health treatments for soft tissue issues have been made easier by Dr. Carosello's use of the Diode laser at his mentor practice. The Diode laser allows our skilled laser dentist to provide you and all of his patients with soft tissue dentistry treatments with little or no discomfort. This dental laser also allows Dr. Carosello to perform very precise anterior aesthetic surgery without the need of anesthesia and without causing bleeding.
Some of the soft tissue dental and oral health treatments using laser dentistry at our Cleveland area office include:
- Periodontal surgery with no scalpels and little to no post-operative pain
- Gum sculpting, including gingival re-contouring and gum lifts
- Gingivectomy, gingivoplasty, and other gum disease surgery
- Cold sore treatment
- Canker sore treatment
- Root canal therapy
- TMJ disorder treatment
- Mouth sterilization during various procedures
Use of Dental Lasers for Hard Tissue Issues
For hard tissue (tooth and bone) issues, Dr. Carosello relies on the Erbium laser. This dental laser allows the precise cutting of teeth and bone without affecting the tissue below. Our Cleveland area patients are able to have quicker and less painful dental appointments because of these laser dentistry techniques.
Some of the hard tissue laser dentistry treatments used at our Mentor, OH office include:
- Cavity detection
- Dental fillings
- Tooth sensitivity issues
- Teeth whitening
Laser Whitening Services for Brighter Teeth
Laser treatment has made it possible for us to offer an even greater range of effective, efficient teeth whitening options to patients in the greater Cleveland area. Laser whitening treatments are simple, quick, and even relaxing, allowing our patients to achieve dramatically whiter teeth with a minimal investment of time.
During the procedure, a patented whitening gel is applied to the patient's teeth. Then, a laser is directed toward the teeth to expedite the tooth whitening process. This procedure requires only a single visit to our office in Mentor, Ohio. Laser whitening usually takes about one hour and can produce immediate, visually stunning results.
Our office frequently offers discounts on laser tooth whitening. To learn more about this extraordinary procedure, contact our Mentor laser dentistry office or visit our Teeth Whitening page.
