You’ll be amazed at how comfortable and free of stress filling a cavity can be!
What Is a Cavity?
A cavity is a small area of decay and damage on a tooth’s enamel layer. Left untreated, the cavity will grow and progress, leaving the tooth at risk of severe pain, infection, and even the need for extraction. The good news is that laser dentistry offers a gentle and comfortable solution for treating tooth decay, restoring your oral health and your beautiful, confident smile.
Introducing the Solea Dental Laser
Solea is the first CO2 laser to be FDA-cleared for hard and soft tissue dental treatments. The innovative device offers a unique wavelength guided by state-of-the-art computers, allowing for virtually pain-free laser treatments.
Solea vaporizes soft and hard tissues, including the gums, tooth structure, or bones, without making any contact. It utilizes a wavelength of light delivered in thousands of pulses per second, providing an analgesic effect, which minimizes the need for local anesthetic shots. Solea offers an incredibly unique experience. It takes the needle, the drill, the noise, and the pain out of your dental treatments!
Laser Dentistry and Dental Fillings
Getting cavities filled with the help of the Solea laser is a unique experience. Dr. Nallasamy will remove the decayed or damaged tooth structure using our laser instead of the dreaded drill. The device vaporizes the decayed portions of the tooth with precision, leaving the surrounding healthy tooth structure intact. Our Solea laser sterilizes the treatment area, eliminating any infection and minimizing the risk of further tooth decay or damage.
With Solea, you’ll find that preparing a tooth for a filling is a virtually painless process, almost like a cold burst of air. The speed, precision, and comfort offered by our Solea laser allow us to repair several cavities in just one appointment!
Can the Solea Laser Treat All Cavities?
Solea is a breakthrough technology that allows for anesthesia-free, comfortable cavity prep for most decayed teeth. It removes a tooth’s damaged or decayed portions with incredible speed and precision. If you’re unsure whether laser cavity repair is right for you, talk to Dr. Nallasamy.
