What is the Solea® All-Tissue Dental Laser?
Solea® All-Tissue Dental Laser is the first CO2 dental laser system cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for hard and soft tissue procedures. It was developed in Boston, Massachusetts by Convergent Dental, based on research conducted at the University of California School of Dentistry.
Solea® All-Tissue Dental Laser offers a unique wavelength guided by sophisticated computers to allow painless dental procedures for both teeth and gums from simple cavities to complex surgeries. The experience is very unique!
Why Solea® All-Tissue Dental Laser?
Dr. Takiar has her Standard Proficiency Certification from the Academy of Laser Dentistry and is specially trained to provide laser frenectomies for children in Leesburg. Instead of using surgical scissors to complete this type of procedure, we will use the Solea® All-Tissue Dental Laser. This means that no “cutting” will be involved. Instead, the laser dissolves the soft tissue using a concentrated beam of light, allowing Dr. Takiar to remove overgrown soft tissue with essentially no bleeding or pain. The laser also cauterizes the area on-contact to drastically reduce the risk of post-operative infection and speed up the healing process.
The Benefits of Laser Dentistry
The majority of hard and soft tissue procedures in our pediatric dental office are done virtually without anesthesia and without any bleeding. Blood-free and anesthesia-free procedures represent a major leap forward in dentistry, as we are able to execute multi-quadrant dentistry and soft tissue procedures in a single appointment.
What does that mean for our young patients? They are actually now able to receive the care they need in a fraction of the time. Thus, laser dentistry is truly changing what it means to go to the dentist! Some additional benefits include:
- Increased precision in treatment with multiple procedures possible in one appointment
- Faster healing time
- No drilling or unpleasant noises
