Solea® Dental Laser

A Change for the Happier

The miracle we’ve all been waiting for is here: Solea. Now available to you, Solea is a powerful dental laser that replaces the dental drill for some procedures in our practice.

Our laser still involves sensations such as cold from water spray and tingling, but it causes virtually no pain or vibration, and is much quieter. In fact, most patients skip anesthesia because they just don’t need it.

Solea is our way of keeping you happy. Because more than anything, we love to see you smile.

Making Dentistry Safer with Solea

Solea is not only our way of keeping you happy, but also keeping you and our staff healthy. It helps reduce the risk of virus and bacteria transmission by significantly lowering the amount of splatter and aerosols created during dental procedures. This means there are fewer particles floating in the air that could potentially carry germs and viruses.

What is Solea?

Solea is the first CO₂ dental laser system cleared by the FDA for hard- and soft-tissue procedures. It was developed in Boston by Convergent Dental, based on research conducted at the University of California School of Dentistry.

Solea features a unique wavelength guided by sophisticated computers to deliver virtually painless dental procedures for both teeth and gums from simple cavity prep to complex surgeries. Not only is the laser virtually painless, it is also vibrationless and very quiet. The experience is so unique that you will find it hard to believe you were just at a dental appointment.

Why Solea?

Many hard- and soft-tissue procedures in our office can be done with no anesthesia, and soft-tissue procedures are done with virtually no bleeding. Blood-free and anesthesia-free procedures represent a major leap forward in dentistry, since we are able to execute multi-quadrant dentistry, fillings on the fly, and soft-tissue procedures in a single appointment.

What does that mean for you, our patient? You are now able to receive the care you need in a fraction of the time — and pain — you were accustomed to from traditional drills. Solea is also far less invasive than using a traditional handpiece, which makes healing time following a procedure much shorter.

When patients have anesthesia, they typically leave the office with that numb feeling still prevalent. With Solea, you are able to go right out to lunch or back to work without that numb sensation following your appointment. Solea is truly changing what it means to go to the dentist.
