The Waterlase™ is a revolutionary dental device that uses a combination of laser energy and water, a process called HydroPhotonics™, to perform many traditional dental procedures using "energized water".

When combined with offering a less invasive, more precise form of treatment that conserves healthy tooth structure, the Waterlase™ transforms your dental experience.  It reduces patient anxiety, minimizes pain and trauma, and creates a more comfortable experience for patients.

Laser Vs. Drill:

A laser removes decayed tooth structure much faster than healthy tooth structure while the drill removes everything in its path.  The laser leaves stronger tooth structure whereas the drill leaves micro fractures in the tooth's surface.  Preliminary evidence shows that lasers also harden the tooth surface and kills germs that cause tooth decay therefore making it more resistant to decay.   It makes white fillings and sealants 'stick' tighter to the tooth so that they last longer. Multiple areas of the mouth can be worked on in one appointment.  Oral surgery and gum surgery have minimal swelling, bleeding, pain, and virtually no infection. 

It is almost impossible to injure the tongue, gums, and lips or cheeks with the laser which is not the case with the drill.

With the laser, one hears a series of 'pops' or 'clicks', but no high pitched whine and no vibration as with the drill.  Since it uses cool water and creates no heat, it leaves teeth less sensitive after a procedure.  The drill vibrates and causes friction and heat causing more sensitivity after procedures.

Benefits of the Waterlase Laser:

  • Minimal Anesthesia for most restorative procedures

  • Shorter chairtime in most instances
  • 'Laser numbing' of teeth in cases when a drill is necessary
  • Children, phobic patients and most anyone can benefit
  •  Minimally invasive procedures done in office-fewer trips to specialists' offices
  • "Laser bandaid" for ulcers and sores
  • Faster healing of aphthous ulcers
