    RICHMOND, VA, November 03, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dentistry is constantly advancing, and Dr. Robert Steadman, dentist in Richmond, VA, is proud to remain up-to-date with current advancements. To further improve his patients' dental care, Dr. Steadman is excited to announce the addition of the soft tissue diode laser for treatment of certain dental conditions.

"No one ever wants to hear that they need surgery, especially on their teeth. However, with the new soft tissue diode laser I can now offer my patients a better alternative to surgery-laser dentistry. With this new technology, I am excited to offer my patients a far more gentler way to treat their dental condition," said Dr. Robert Steadman, Richmond, VA dentist.

Soft tissue diode lasers are known for precision cuts with gum tissue, eliminating bleeding at the site while reducing healing time. Additionally, these lasers are also being used to help sterilize canals in endodontics, treat periodontal disease and aid in tooth whitening. Dr. Robert Steadman, cosmetic dentist in Richmond, utilizes the Diode Laser for soft tissue treatment, and is used in a compact manner that creates less heat and vibration than traditional hand-pieces. Additionally, the Diode Laser has an analgesia type effect, which makes the use of anesthetic unnecessary in many cases.

Over 80 percent of the adult population has some form of gum disease, but with the Diode Laser, Dr. Steadman, Richmond cosmetic dentist, can successfully treat gum disease without surgery. After debris and calcified deposits are removed from the affected teeth, the Diode Laser selectively removes diseased or infected tissues that are lining the pockets around the teeth. The Diode Laser will also kill the bacteria that can cause gum disease, which helps to promote healing.

When it comes to laser dentistry, the benefits are abundant. Many patients enjoy the use of lasers in their procedures because of the ease and comfort that are commonly associated with it. However, laser dentistry also eliminates the need for sutures in many cases, minimizes damage to surrounding tissue, offers faster healing time for wounds and tissues, and minimizes bleeding.

The use of laser dentistry opens the door for Dr. Robert Steadman, family dentist in Richmond, to perform a wide variety of dental procedures they may otherwise not be able to perform. By utilizing the Diode Laser, Dr. Steadman has become more adapt at incorporating this technologically advanced precision into a number of common and not-so-common procedures.
