Diode laser treatment enhances orthodontic procedures by safely removing excess gum tissue, which improves tooth exposure for better bracket placement and aesthetics. This technique helps sculpt the gums to better frame the teeth, enhancing the overall smile appearance without the need for needles and using only topical anesthetic for comfort.
In addition to aiding in bracket placement, diode laser treatment is instrumental in addressing impacted teeth, facilitating their eruption without prolonged waiting or surgical interventions. Post-braces are also used for aesthetic gingival recontouring, where they reshape the gum line to reveal more of the teeth, creating a balanced, attractive smile.
