Kavo Key 3 Laser Technology in Toronto
Laser dentistry just got better with the development of the KaVo Key 3 laser technology. We use this laser in our office for a variety of dental procedures. The KaVo Key 3 is a technological tool that helps us treat your teeth quickly, painlessly, and effectively.
Uses Dental Technology
Our KaVo Key 3 lasers are superior to older dental lasers in several ways. They do their work with significantly less heat. The pulse rate of these drills is extremely fast. In fact, it is so fast that your nerves have such a short amount of time to react to the treatment. What does all this mean to you? It means you feel comfortable throughout the treatment and barely notice any pain.
Treats a Wide Range of Dental Problems
We have replaced traditional dental tools with the KaVo Key 3 laser technology for many dental procedures. Some of the treatments we accomplish with the KaVo Key include root canals, scaling and planing to deep clean teeth, and many other dental treatments.
Cleans Teeth More Thoroughly
We use the KaVo Key 3 Laser to deep-clean your teeth. The laser can reach into tiny pockets of your gums. This allows us to clean out not only rotting food, plaque, and tartar but also the harmful bacteria that hide on the surfaces of your teeth, which are hard for you to see and clean properly during your daily dental hygiene routine.
Cuts Down on Drilling
With the KaVo Key 3 laser technology, we can do much of the work that we once did with drills. As a result, you get a much more comfortable experience. In addition, we cut down the amount of time you spend listening to the often unsettling sounds of a traditional dental drill.
Increases Precision
Our lasers are precise. Unlike old lasers, the KaVo Key 3 finely pinpoints the treatment area. Because of this, your dentist can give you more accurate care and better protect the soft tissues of your mouth. This is just one of the many ways we keep you safe while offering more intricate dental treatments.
Requires Extensive Training and Expertise
Because the KaVo Key 3 laser technology is relatively new, it can pose some dental problems and challenges, and dentists need extensive training to use it properly. Our dentist has gone through the recommended training for the device and continues with ongoing education to keep up with the latest uses for this laser. You can rely on us to do the work you need to be done for more accurate results and a more comfortable experience.
Eliminates Over-Treatment
Our laser gives instant feedback to your dentist, allowing us to determine the progress of the treatment at any given moment. This means that your dentist gets the exact amount of plaque and tartar that is on your teeth and then knows when the job is finished. This is a vast improvement over old lasers, which could allow dentists to over-treat your teeth without realizing the treatment was completed.
Frequently Asked Questions About the KaVo Key 3 Laser
1. What dental treatments can the KaVo Key 3 Laser be used for?
The KaVo Key 3 Laser can be used for gum disease treatment, deep cleaning, cavity preparation, root canals, and other procedures that once required traditional tools. At Downtown Dentistry, we often recommend it for patients seeking a more comfortable alternative to drills and manual instruments.
2. Is treatment with the KaVo Key 3 Laser painful?
Most patients report little to no discomfort during treatment. Because the laser works so quickly and generates less heat, the nerves have less time to react, making the experience more comfortable compared to traditional methods.
3. How does the KaVo Key 3 Laser improve dental cleaning?
This laser can reach into small gum pockets and remove bacteria, plaque, and tartar that daily brushing often misses. By targeting these areas, it supports healthier gums and reduces the risk of gum infections.
