Benefits of Laser Dental Treatments & The Solea Dental Laser
No Needles / No Numbing
Traditionally, when a patient has a cavity, they need to be numbed with anesthesia, and then a drill is used to remove the decayed section of the tooth. Laser dentistry removes the need for both drills and anesthesia.
Quicker Dental Visits
A large part of a traditional dental filling appointment is waiting for the numbness to take effect. With laser dentistry, appointments are quicker and you can get right back to your day.
Precise
Our team also loves the Solea laser because of its high degree of precision, which makes it easier to bond dental filling materials to a tooth by ensuring the surface of the tooth is perfectly shaped for the filling.
Laser Dentistry Removes The Need For Needles, Drills, & Numbing
Hearing that you have a cavity that needs to be filled is often one of the least looked forward to elements of a dental visit, especially for patients who have had negative experiences in the past. Solea Laser Dentistry helps alleviate some of that dental anxiety while simultaneously providing key benefits to our dental team. Laser dental treatments allow us to treat dental decay and other dental issues without needing to use anesthesia, which means no needles or having to wait for the numbness to wear off after a dental filling appointment. Moreover, this treatment allows us and other dentists to be more precise; this laser cuts as precisely as 30 microns (30 thousandths of a millimeter). This also means that patients can often be treated the same day as their original appointment, since traditional fillings require longer visits, which is why we usually need to schedule follow-ups. For more information on this treatment, please give us a call.
