It’s great news that the incidence of tooth decay has significantly diminished over the years due to the use of fluorides and an increase in patient awareness. However, teeth are still susceptible to decay, infection, and breakage and sometimes need to be restored back to health. Through improved techniques and modern technology such as Waterlase™, we are now able to offer more options for restoring a tooth back to its normal shape, appearance and function. We provide patients with in-house restoration procedures such as:
- Filings
- Crowns
- Bridges
- Inlays/Onlays
- Dentures/ Implants
- Root Canals
- Extractions
The Waterlase™ YSGG - Cutting Edge Technology!
Waterlase™ YSGG technology uses a 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™ is applied in a variety of dental procedures, including cavity preparation, decay removal, tooth etching and a wide range of gum procedures.
How does the Waterlase™ work?
The Waterlase™ system uses laser-energized water to cut teeth. The Waterlase™ emits a laser beam that energizes a highly precise spray of air and water. Since there is no heat or vibration from the Waterlase™, the need for anesthetic (THE SHOT) is eliminated in most cases!
What are benefits of the Waterlase™?
The Waterlase™ significantly improves patients' comfort in the dentist's chair because it does not cause heat or vibration in the mouth. Waterlase™ may ease the pain and anxiety of patients who fear the vibration and high-pitched whine of traditional drills.
