Understanding How Fat Cavitation Treatments Work

 For any cosmetic dentist, fat extraction or fat Cavitation treatments are among the most common treatments they work on each and every day. Fat deposits can be very difficult to treat since they form under the gum line and hard to reach with a traditional drill. Cosmetic dentists have recently discovered a way to take out fat tissue without damaging the tooth itself.

Most cosmetic dental treatments are performed in the office under local anesthesia, which is not always an option for some patients who are allergic to anesthesia. When a local anesthetic is decided upon it is vital that it be used as sparingly as possible for it to have minimal side effects for the patient. Since this method of fat removal treatment is new, it may be under scrutiny for that reason, although the treatments are performed more carefully than with other types of dental procedures. The latest treatments are being done using lasers and sound waves rather than the traditional drill methods of the past.

One type of laser treatment called Computed Tomography (CT) scan, also known as a mini head-aver or a mini face lift uses a laser fiber to create a three dimensional image of the patient's jaw area. The CT scan is sent by way of a special computer to a specially designed CT scanner that does the actual treatment. This particular treatment for fat cavitation is not recommended for patients with weak bones because it can break the bones of the jaw in order to reach into them. This type of fat treatment does not even work on patients with molars and deciduous teeth because of the extreme difficulty of accessing the nerve endings.

Another fat Cavitation treatment that is gaining popularity today is known as Local Oblique Pulsed Deposition (LOP) or Laser Scalpel Liposuction. A fiber optic wire is first introduced into the mouth and ultrasound energy is then applied. The fat cells are broken down gradually by the ultrasonic energy over time. A local anesthetic is normally not used during this treatment because only a mild pain reliever is felt. The main issue with LOP is that it does not work effectively on patients with particularly deep sets of fat because the ultrasound waves need to travel further up into the soft tissue before they break down the fat cells.

The most effective types of fat cell treatment all involve some form of fat transfer. In general, the fat cells are extracted from the subcutaneous layer of the skin by a process called liposuction or through a minor surgical procedure called lipoplasty. After the fat cells are extracted, the remainder of the skin is stitched together to cover the wounds so that no scarring occurs.

Fat cavitation treatments have many positive benefits for patients who suffer from the affects of excess fat. This is a condition that causes patients' jaws and lips to appear much smaller in size, making it much easier to chew and talk. Many people also discover that their newfound confidence comes in handy with the people they meet. Before the advent of these types of treatments, people would likely be too self-conscious to even speak with another person in public. These days, people with enlarged jaws and chubby faces are confident as can be imagined, and the smiles that result are nothing short of spectacular!
