Laser IMPLANT Dentistry

The team at Honeysuckle Dental uses the very latest advances in modern dental technology. From our state-of-the-art practice in Honeysuckle Drive we offer the most innovative dental laser treatments.

Laser technology has recently transformed the way patients receive some dental treatments. We use a wide range of dental lasers to ensure your visit to our practice is comfortable and pleasant. You can forget the use of needles, scalpels and drills, as laser dentistry allows us to provide you with more comfortable and relaxing dental treatments.


The use of Laser Dentistry can include:

  • Teeth whitening treatments.
  • Removal of tooth decay.
  • Restorations such as fillings and root canal therapy.
  • Soft tissue surgery.
  • Hard tissue surgery.
  • Laser periodontics (gum) treatment.

Our variety of laser equipment to keep you smiling

The latest developments in dental laser technology have benefitted a number of different dental specialisations, including cosmetic dentistry and oral surgery.


There are a variety of dental procedures that have been improved and simplified with the use of lasers. Our practice is equipped with three different lasers to offer you effective results, with increased efficiency and a reduced healing time:

  • Er:YAG Laser: The ErYag Laser allows us to perform fillings and soft tissue surgery without the need for local anaesthesia. One of the major advantages of the ErYag laser is that fillings can be completed in more than one area of the mouth in a single visit without the feeling of numbness associated with a local anaesthetic.
  • KTP Laser: The KTP laser is used during the SmartBleach teeth whitening procedure and for soft tissue surgery. Local anaesthetic is required for soft tissue surgery while using the KTP laser.
  • Photo Activated Disinfection (PAD) laser: PAD stands for Photo Activated Disinfection and is a fast and minimally invasive disinfection system. It is used during root canals, treatment for gum disease and some restorative dentistry treatments.

Needle Free Dentistry

Dental lasers can minimise or completely eliminate the need for needles and dental drills. Our team have the ability to perform many different procedures without the joint discomfort and fear associated with needles and drills. For nervous patients, who might find the thought of needles daunting, this is a way that you can achieve the treatment they desire without anxiety. You won’t fear needles holding you back when going in for treatment. The use of dental lasers is safer and can be extremely beneficial when considering the results and overall outcomes. Dental lasers have widened our ability to transform smiles, as well as often improve the result. The time it takes our team to perform dental treatments is also often reduced with dental lasers. With the assistance of dental lasers, the accuracy of our treatments is precise.

Reduce Healing Time

For treatments such as reshaping gummy smiles, the replacement of a traditional scalpel for a dental laser can provide numerous benefits.


Due to the pinpoint accuracy of our lasers, the soft tissues in your mouth can often heal faster than if they were treated with a scalpel. Our dental lasers can also help you with a dental treatment that is often bloodless and virtually pain-free.


The chances of infection are also reduced as the laser cauterises and also kills bacteria due to the heat. During your comprehensive consultation, our team can discuss how dental lasers can benefit your smile.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What can I eat after I get my dental implant?

    Dental implants are designed to be strong, durable and not impact eating, drinking, or speaking. Many patients assume that they can immediately resume eating their favourite foods following a dental implant surgery. However, it's important to temporarily adhere to a special diet to protect your implant. Begin with soft foods and follow the advice of the dentist for when to introduce hard foods into your diet. Soft foods include:


    • Oatmeal 
    • Yoghurt 
    • Gelato
    • Soups 
    • Potatoes (mashed, fried, baked) 
    • Eggs 
    • Soft fruits 
    • Mac and cheese 

  • What can I do if I am scared of the dental drill?

    With the developments in modern dental technology, dental drills are a thing of the past. Modern laser technology such as the Er:YAG laser allows dentists to provide fillings and soft tissue surgery without the need for local anaesthesia or the use of dental drills.

  • How long does teeth whitening take?

    A teeth whitening treatment at Honeysuckle Dental usually takes about one hour using the KTP Laser method in a treatment called Smartbleach. Smartbleach uses a laser that produces pure green light and is used in conjunction with the Smartbleach’s patented red gel. These work together to reach the large, light absorbing molecules deep in your teeth. This often results in a smile that appears to be whiter and brighter.

  • Are smile makeovers only used to enhance my smile?

    Smile makeovers are predominantly used to enhance the aesthetics of a person’s smile. However, some of the procedures used for the smile makeover can also help improve the functionality of the mouth. Dental restorations or replacements, such as crowns, bridges, implants, etc. can assist with biting, chewing and speech impediments.

  • How can I take care of my teeth between dental check-ups?

    There are a few age-old rules that you should follow to maintain your oral and dental health between dental check-ups. The first and most important is to brush your teeth and tongue at least twice a day or after meals and to floss at least once a day. Make sure that you are using toothpaste that contains fluoride and check with us whether you may benefit from a fluoride rinse. Where possible, avoid foods and drinks that contain a lot of sugar.
