Pain-Free Dentistry: What to Expect With the Solea© Laser
Many people who fear the dentist are afraid of the pain they may experience with procedures even as simple as a teeth cleaning. However, with the SOLEA© Dental Laser, those fears can be allayed. Let’s take a look at the revolutionary approach of Solea Dental Laser and how it can benefit you.
A Look at Solea© Laser
Solea is the first CO2 dental laser system approved by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) for hard, soft, and osseous tissue procedures. First developed in Boston, this innovative system uses a dental laser guided by sophisticated computers to provide painless dental procedures for the gums and teeth.
From complex dental surgeries to even simple cavity fillings, Solea replaces the traditional dental drill in most procedures performed here at Hudson Family Dental. The process is so comfortable, in fact, that most of our patients simply don’t need the anesthesia they normally would have gotten.
Not only does Solea offer a pain-free experience, it’s quicker than traditional procedures or multiple visits. The best part is, patients don’t leave the office with a numb face and lips. Simply head back to work, go out to lunch, or pick up the kids from school.
Our dentists already use this laser for no-fear cavity fillings and soft tissue procedures. However, we hope to soon offer it to address palatal snoring issues with no recovery time and immediate relief.
We believe Solea is a game changer in the industry. We perform most of our soft tissue procedures with no bleeding, too.
Solea© Laser: Changing the Vision of Local Dentistry
This advanced dental laser technology replaces the need for the scalpel, needle and drill in the dental office. It’s safe for all ages and a wide variety of procedures—in most cases, without the need for anesthetics.
The benefits of Solea© Laser include:
- No need to feel anxious when visiting the dentist. Instead of a loud drill, there’s only a quiet dental laser.
- For a majority of procedures, there’s no needle, drill, blood, or pain involved.
- No wait time for anesthetic to kick in.
- You can be assured of anesthesia-free and blood-free procedures so you can confidently leave the office with no discomfort or numbness.
- It’s quick, easy, and can be done in just one visit (it takes mere minutes to complete most procedures). Do away with the frustration of having to schedule multiple visits and waste a good portion of your day.
The biggest benefit, of course, is the lack of pain. Most patients report feeling nothing during their dental procedure, while others may feel a mild cold sensation. With the absence of pain, many other related issues can be minimized or eliminated, such as anxiety and fear – both of which trigger the release of stress hormones that lower the pain threshold. When patients are relaxed, however, their procedure can be performed more effectively and quickly.
Other benefits of pain-free dentistry include:
- Gag reflex control
- Increased comfort
- Better chance of repeat visits over long term
- Improved patient experience
- Less invasive procedures
