What is Solea?
Solea is an advanced new dental laser technology that helps take the drill, needle, noise, and pain out of dentistry. Solea can accommodate patients of all ages and procedures of all kinds— in many cases without the need for anesthetic. Solea provides your entire family with a quick, comfortable, stress-free dental experience.
How does it work?
Solea uses laser technology to vaporize the target tissue like the tooth or gums, enabling us to perform fillings and pain procedures quickly and safely.
Is the procedure really done without a needle? How?
Yes, it is. The Solea laser uses a wavelength of light delivered in thousands of pulses per second, which can prevent pain signals from ever reaching your brain. The result is that dental work to be completed without needles, numbness, or pain. Most patients don't feel anything, while others feel a mild cold sensation or slight pressure.
As a result of reliably anesthesia-free procedures, you will be able to leave the office—without that uncomfortable numb sensation—almost immediately after I complete the procedure.
What types of procedures can you perform with Solea?
We use it for the majority of procedures, routine cavity fillings, removing old fillings, crowns and more complex surgeries.
What are the patient benefits of Solea?
- Most notably, it delivers an entirely new experience for our patients. Imagine a dentist visit with no needles, no numbness, no noisy drill, and no pain.
- Even the most fearful patients leave feeling relaxed and comfortable.
- In addition to the experience being so much better, visits are shorter because patients don't have to sit in the chair waiting to get over the local anesthetic. Fewer local anesthetics mean less time in the chair waiting to get the numbness away.
- Because we can work without anesthesia, we can now work in a faster appointment, which means less recovery time from that fat lip feeling when compared to traditional appointment types.
- Less time needed from school for kids and no risk of tissue injury during the anesthetic effective time.
- These are only some of Solea's greatest benefits: eliminating the dread from dental visits.
