How Laser Therapy is Revolutionising Orthodontic Treatment

MLS® laser therapy works by using two wavelengths of light to penetrate deep into the tissues and bones in the mouth. The 808nm continuous emissions reduce inflammation. The 905nm pulsed emissions produces an analgesic effect and promotes healing of the bone and tissue. Both wavelengths have been shown to increase mitochondria activity and ATP production.

Benefits of MLS® laser therapy in orthodontic treatment.

MLS® laser therapy is a game-changer in orthodontic treatment, offering numerous benefits for both patients and orthodontists. Here are 3 reasons:

1. Accelerates tooth movement.
2. Reduces pain and inflammation associated with orthodontics.
3. Speeds up the healing process after oral surgery.

Accelerates Tooth Movement

One of the biggest advantages of MLS® laser therapy is that it can accelerate tooth movement by up to 30%! Studies have shown that it successfully accelerates the velocity of tooth movement via stimulation of alveolar bone remodeling. Sounds too good to be true? Read this research article to learn more. As a result, dentists can reduce the treatment time and see more patients, resulting in increased revenue for the business!

Reduces Pain and Swelling Associated with Tooth Movement

Also, laser therapy is effective at reducing pain and swelling associated with braces or other orthodontic appliances. It can reduce pain by a significant degree at various stages of orthodontic treatment including arch wire placement, appliance removal, separator placement and any adjustment phases. This means that patients can experience less discomfort during treatment, making the process more tolerable overall. Here’s a scientific research article demonstrating laser therapy’s ability to reduce pain during orthodontic adjustments.

Speeds Up the Healing Process After Oral Surgery

Additionally, MLS® laser therapy can speed up the healing process after oral surgery or other procedures. This is ideal for patients who require tooth extractions since the laser can be used to speed up the healing and bone reformation process, allowing orthodontists to begin treatment earlier. It can also be used as an adjunct to various surgical orthodontic procedures, including palatal expansion, to improve healing, reduce pain and minimize neurosensory disruption. This allows patients to recover more quickly and get back to their normal routines. To learn more about how laser therapy is beneficial following tooth extractions, read this research article.

Overall, MLS® laser therapy is a safe and effective treatment option that is quickly becoming a standard part of orthodontic care.

Why MLS® laser therapy is the best laser for orthodontists.

MLS® laser therapy is the best laser for orthodontists because it offers a unique combination of wavelengths that work together to provide optimal results. The dual wavelengths of the MLS® laser penetrate deep into the tissues, stimulating cellular activity and promoting healing. This makes it an ideal choice for treating a wide range of orthodontic conditions, including pain and inflammation associated with braces or orthodontic appliances, as well as post-surgical healing.

Additionally, MLS® laser therapy is non-invasive and painless, making it a comfortable and convenient option for patients of all ages. Also, it accelerates tooth movement, resulting in shorter treatment times and reduced wait times for patients to see orthodontists. With its many benefits and proven track record of success, it’s no wonder that MLS® laser therapy is quickly becoming the go-to treatment option for orthodontists.
