Laser pre-drilling before mini-implant placement: a useful advance? 💡 Laser technology is gaining ground in orthodontics, particularly for the placement of mini-implants in the free gingiva. But what are the advantages of a laser pre-drill? 1️⃣ Less pain and trauma: A laser pre-drill minimizes the impact on soft tissues, providing a more comfortable procedure for the patient. 2️⃣ Increased precision: The laser allows for a more controlled insertion of the mini-implant, improving the precision of placement. 3️⃣ Less bleeding: Thanks to its coagulating effect, the laser reduces bleeding, thus facilitating the intervention. 4️⃣ Accelerated healing: By promoting better recovery of soft tissues, the laser can improve post-operative healing. So, is laser pre-drilling always necessary? It depends on the clinical case. In some cases, a manual technique remains just as effective, but for more complex interventions, the laser can really make the difference. ⚙️💪 What do you think? Are you already using this technology in your practices? 🤔 #orthodontics #innovation #laser #implants #technology#orthospirits.com
