Description

A “laser composite filling” is a dental restoration where a laser is used to precisely remove decay from a tooth, followed by the placement of a tooth-colored composite resin material. This modern method offers less pain, reduces the need for anesthesia, preserves more healthy tooth structure, and creates a strong bond between the tooth and the filling. Lasers can also sterilize the tooth cavity, killing bacteria and potentially leading to a more durable and less problematic restoration.
