Pain & Anesthesia:

Many treatments require little to no anesthesia, reducing discomfort.
Drills and scalpels often require numbing shots, which can cause lingering soreness.
Procedure Speed:
Treatments are up to 75% faster, meaning shorter appointments and fewer visits.
Traditional methods require multiple steps, leading to longer chair time.
Healing & Recovery:
Minimally invasive with reduced swelling, bleeding, and faster healing. Schedule an appointment today.
Can result in extended recovery times, discomfort, and a greater need for post-procedure care.
Precision & Tissue Preservation:
Targets only the affected area, leaving more healthy tooth and gum tissue intact.
Conventional tools can remove excess healthy tissue, causing unnecessary damage.
Dental Fillings:
Laser dentistry for dental fillings removes cavities without the heat, pressure, or vibration of a drill. Many cases require no drilling at all.
Drilling generates friction and heat, which can weaken the tooth and cause discomfort.
Patient Comfort & Anxiety Reduction:
Quiet, vibration-free, and drill-free—perfect for patients with dental anxiety.
Loud drilling, pressure, and vibration can cause stress and discomfort.
Hygiene & Safety:
The laser sterilizes as it works, reducing the risk of infection.
Requires constant sterilization of tools, with a higher risk of bacterial contamination.
Minimally Invasive Procedures:
No stitches, no excessive cutting—just precise, targeted treatment.
Requires incisions and sutures for many procedures, leading to longer recovery.
Soft Tissue Treatments:
Soft tissue treatments can reshape gums, treat gum disease, and remove oral lesions with minimal discomfort.
Often requires scalpels and sutures, leading to more pain and recovery time.
Versatility & Modern Applications:
Used for a wide range of treatments, from fillings to gum lifts and biopsies.
Relies on outdated techniques that can be more invasive and less effective.

Solea® is approved for use in a variety of dental procedures involving enamel, soft tissue, and bone. These include cavity fillings, gingivectomies, frenectomies, treatment of aphthous ulcers, fibroma removals, crown lengthenings, and more.
Is Solea® Suitable for Seniors and People with Dental Anxiety?

Can Solea® Help with Snoring?
