Solea Laser - An Innovative Tool in Dental Practice

Everyone knows the importance of maintaining good oral hygiene. Some of the steps needed include a regular at-home oral care routine, bi-annual dental checkups and teeth cleanings. However, many patients delay or cancel their dentist appointments because of their dental phobias. Many people across the world have reported anxiety towards loud dental instruments that make drill-like sounds. 

Fortunately, people don't have to be anxious anymore! Various dental technology advancements, including the Solea laser, have allowed replacing the scalpel, needle, and drill in dental offices with more fast, effective, and appealing solutions. 

Let's see what a Solea laser is in detail.

Solea Laser

Solea laser is an FDA-approved dental laser that enables dentists to perform various dental procedures, including cavity treatment fast, effective, and more accurately, while keeping discomfort and pain to a minimum.

Unlike other laser dentistry systems that work to cut either soft tissues or hard tissues, Solea laser has obtained clearance from the FDA to use for soft and hard tissue ablation.

Solea dental laser can be used in various dental procedures that include:

• Preparing teeth for fillings and crowns
• Gum contouring
• Treating dental decay
• Sterilizing and treating gum disease

Benefits of Solea

Various dental conditions may require the ablation or removal of teeth, bone, and gum tissues. Solea dental laser replaces loud dental drills and other handheld tools to offer patients a more calm, pain-free, and relaxed experience. 

The major benefits offered by a Solea laser includes the following: 

• Solea laser allows fast and precise dental procedures. 
• With Solea lasers, dentists can vaporize bone, gum, and other types of oral tissues. 
• Solea laser has its application in a variety of dental treatments, including cavity fillings.
• Solea eliminates the need for sedation in a majority of treatments. 
• Solea laser helps patients have an anxiety-free dental experience by providing a needle-free dental experience.
• Since Solea laser eliminates drills, scalpels, or stitches, damage to the surrounding tissue is significantly reduced. Thus, it is possible to perform hard and soft tissue procedures in a single dental appointment. 
• As laser treatment does not involve anesthesia, the patient can leave the practice immediately after the procedure without a numb mouth.  
• Solea laser reduces bleeding in soft tissue procedures and leads to a shorter recovery time.
• Solea beam laser sterilizes the area during the procedure, thus reducing the risk of infections and complications post the procedure.
