Teeth Sensitivity Management In Chennai

Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT)

TEETH SENSITIVITY MANAGEMENT

Low-Level Laser Therapy  is one of the advanced treatments we provide at Best Dental Clinic – Dr N Deenadayalan T Nagar, Chennai and Dr Julian’s Laser Dental Clinic Tambaram, Chennai. Laser desensitization a form of Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), provides immediate relief from sensitive teeth without the need for anesthesia.

The procedure works by sealing microscopic openings in the dentin that lead to sensitive nerve tissue, while directing laser energy into the affected areas to suppress nerve activity by eliminating the exposed tubules.

Additionally, LLLT has well-known anti-inflammatory and photobiomodulatory properties that help reduce inflammation in the dental pulp and surrounding tissues. Using low-power lasers or LEDs in the red to near-infrared spectrum (650–1000 nm), LLLT stimulates natural healing processes and alleviates pain without causing heat damage or structural changes to the tissue.

Key Features of Laser Desensitization (LLLT)

  • Non-invasive and painless treatment for sensitive teeth

  • Does not produce heat, unlike surgical lasers

  • Often used as an alternative to drugs or surgery

  • Involves exposure of cells or tissue to low levels of red and near-infrared light

💬Frequently Asked Questions ?

LLLT / Tooth Sensitivity FAQ - Best Dental Clinic
My teeth hurt when I drink cold water or eat sweets. Do I really need laser treatment?
If your teeth react painfully to cold, hot, or sweet foods, it’s a sign that the dentin or nerve is exposed. LLLT, available at Best Dental Clinic – Dr N Deenadayalan, T Nagar, Chennai and Dr Julian’s Laser Dental Clinic, Tambaram, Chennai, targets the cause by sealing these tiny channels and calming the nerves, providing real relief rather than just masking symptoms.
How is LLLT different from regular desensitizing toothpaste or gels?
Toothpaste only temporarily blocks sensitivity and requires long-term use. LLLT actually seals the dentin tubules and reduces nerve activity, offering faster and longer-lasting relief. At Best Dental Clinic – Dr N Deenadayalan, T Nagar, Chennai and Dr Julian’s Laser Dental Clinic, Tambaram, Chennai, patients usually feel the difference immediately after the session.
Will it hurt? I’m scared of lasers on my teeth.
LLLT is completely painless. The laser used is low-power and does not generate heat or damage your teeth. Many patients describe it as a gentle warming or soothing sensation at Best Dental Clinic – Dr N Deenadayalan, T Nagar, Chennai and Dr Julian’s Laser Dental Clinic, Tambaram, Chennai.
How long does one session take? Do I need multiple visits?
Each session usually lasts 10–20 minutes, depending on how many teeth are sensitive. Some patients need only one session, while others may require 2–3 sessions for optimal results. The dentist at Best Dental Clinic – Dr N Deenadayalan, T Nagar, Chennai or Dr Julian’s Laser Dental Clinic, Tambaram, Chennai will advise a personalized plan.
Are there any risks or side effects?

Our teams at Best Dental Clinic – Dr N Deenadayalan, T Nagar, Chennai and Dr Julian’s Laser Dental Clinic, Tambaram, Chennai provide guidance for long-term care.
