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 in Seminole and Apollo Beach, FL! 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, TMJ, and other oral health issues with greater accuracy — and less discomfort for you!

We can also use this treatment to address sleep issues, such as snoring, sleep apnea, and as part of sleep therapy, so you can wake feeling rested.

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
TMJ treatment

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.

Cutting-Edge Treatment for Common Sleep and Breathing Issues

While the dental team at E Dental often utilizes Solea for restorative dentistry, it also has applications in addressing sleep and breathing issues.

Specifically, we can use this technology in the following treatments:

Sleep therapy
Sleep apnea treatment
Snoring treatment
Mouth breathing therapy

If you struggle to feel rested after you sleep, or if you have a child who is a mouth breather and is suffering health concerns as a result, Solea All-Tissue Laser may be the solution. Be sure to talk to your dentist in Apollo Beach and Seminole, FL, about this option.

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.

Oral Health Treatment Without Anesthesia

One of the perks of choosing Solea All-Tissue Laser for your dental treatment is the fact that this treatment requires no use of anesthesia. This, in turn, means you can treat a number of oral health concerns without any shots.

You’ll have greater comfort and less anxiety, all without the need to be poked and prodded!

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 and usually doesn’t require shots, which can increase anxiety in young patients. Kids who have treatment using Solea technology 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.
