Digital and laser dentistry Meriker has been using laser treatment in its practice for more than eight years. Our specialists have completed academic education in different countries of Europe. We provide certified laser dental services for therapeutic and surgical dentistry.
The Meriker Dental Clinic uses erbium and diode lasers in its practice. Erbium laser WaterLase is the most advanced laser system that can work with both soft and hard tissues, and is successfully used in therapeutic and surgical dentistry:
Therapeutic dentistry:
- treatment of caries;
- root canal treatment;
- gum treatment;
Surgical dentistry:
- lingual and lip frenulum;
- tooth extraction;
- dental implantation;
- maxillary sinus lift, etc.
All restorative manipulations are minimally invasive, do not require gum incisions, so the body does not need to expend energy on recovery.
The use of anesthetic is kept to a minimum, mainly a special anesthetic gel is used instead of an injection, thus no needle is used. This is very important for patients who suffer from dental phobia or for patients who are allergic to anesthetics, as well as for patients who suffer from cardiovascular diseases.
Dental treatment with a laser allows you to avoid microcracks in the enamel and tiny chipped teeth, open "gates" for caries, which often occur under the drill of a conventional drill.

The laser has a disinfecting, coagulating, hemostatic effect. Manipulations are completely painless, without blood and sutures. The patient does not feel discomfort. The rehabilitation period is as comfortable as possible, without swelling and in a short time.
Erbium laser is used for manipulations with hard tissues, since the radiation has maximum absorption by water and hydroxyapatite, which are mostly found in bone tissue and tooth tissues .
