The most exciting addition to our practice in recent years is the Waterlase dental laser. Waterlase® YSGG technology uses a patented and unique combination of laser energy and water to gently and precisely remove dental decay with no shot, no drill, and no pain in most cases. Waterlase® YSGG technology uses a patented and unique combination of laser energy and water to gently and precisely remove dental decay with no shot, no drill, and no pain in most cases. The Waterlase® effectively performs numerous soft tissue (gums) procedures with little or no bleeding and gives us a new high-tech tool for many procedures that previously required referral to a specialist. Now you can have them performed during your scheduled appointment. The Waterlase® also prepares your teeth in a way that maximizes the bonding of tooth colored fillings, allowing them to last longer.

Here is a partial list of the procedures the Waterlase laser can be used for:

• Decay Removal
• Cavity Preparation
• Complete Root Canal procedures
• Bone procedures
• Reshape "gummy" smiles
• General soft tissue procedures
• General dentistry for enamel and dentin
• Avoid being "numbed" (in most cases)
• Avoid the shot and pain (in most cases)

LaserSmile Tooth Whitening
A second laser we have added to our practice is the amazing LaserSmile diode laser, also by Biolase. This allows us to perform dramatic in-office teeth whitening within an hour. The LaserSmile gel is specially formulated to work effectively with the specific wavelength of the LaserSmile™ laser, increasing the efficiency of the whitening process. The dramatically shorter treatment time avoids excess heat & sensitivity common to other whitening devices.
