Like any dental procedure, laser tooth filling can have some side effects. A few of them are:
Sensitivity: Expect to feel a little sensitive to hot and cold temperatures after the procedure.
Mild pain: While most patients report minimal discomfort, some patients do report mild pain.
Gum swelling: In some cases, the gums around a cavity-filled tooth can swell after treatment.
Bleeding: Some patients may have a little bleeding during or after the surgery.
Discoloration: A rare side effect of laser drill-free dental fillings is discoloration or changes in the color of the teeth.
It’s important to note that these side effects tend to be mild and temporary, and most people recover quickly. If you have any questions about laser tooth filling or feel a little off after the procedure, feel free to call us.
