Solea All-Tissue Laser

Solea All-Tissue Laser

Having anxiety about dental visits is common, but it may lead to delayed checkups or treatment. Our dental team offers a great solution with Solea All-Tissue Laser. This technology helps ease fears about the use of drills and other traditional dental tools. Let’s take a closer look at Solea and its benefits.

What Is the Solea All-Tissue Laser?

This advanced laser technology is a tool dentists use for several treatments. It lowers the need for using more invasive dental tools, such as drills and scalpels. Instead, it allows our dental team to treat cavities, gum problems, and other oral health issues with greater accuracy and less discomfort for you!

How Does It Work?

Solea uses a laser to make cuts in hard and soft tissue and structures, such as teeth and gums. It emits carbon dioxide energy via computer control to make precise incisions or perform other tasks for dental procedures.

What Is It Used For?

Solea has many uses in dental offices, including the following:

• Enamel removal
• Gum and other soft tissue procedures, such as gingivectomies
• Treatments involving bone
• Cavities
• Crown lengthening
• Amalgam filling removal

Note that this laser technology isn’t used for regular cleaning tasks, like removing plaque and tartar buildup. But if you’re anxious about those types of visits, we have other options to help you feel more comfortable.

What Benefits Does It Offer?

The Solea All-Tissue Laser helps dental appointments go more smoothly for anxious patients. This technology also makes it easier for our dental team to handle procedures that involve cutting into or treating tissue in your mouth, whether teeth, bone, or gums.

Overall, Solea offers the following advantages:

• Reduces the need for traditional drills for certain treatments
• Quicker treatment times — just minutes in some cases
• Lower need for multiple appointments
• Less invasive
• Reduced need for anesthesia
• No downtime

What to Expect

In many cases, we don’t need to administer anesthesia when we use this CO2 laser technology. We’ll have you sit comfortably in one of our dental chairs, then direct the Solea laser to the affected area for treatment. Certain procedures may only take minutes to do, while others may take a bit longer.

Is It Safe?

Yes, the FDA has approved Solea technology for use on soft and hard mouth tissue. It’s considered safe for most patients, including children and women who are pregnant. In fact, it may be a better option for younger patients, since it isn’t as invasive as regular tools. They can also return to their normal activities right after their appointment in most cases. For pregnant patients, the use of this laser technology reduces the need for anesthesia, making it a safer approach overall.
