Versatile Laser Dentistry in Scottsdale - Scottsdale Laser Dentistry
Dental lasers have revolutionized oral care, transforming traditional procedures into convenient treatments that minimize discomfort and recovery time, while improving the overall health of patients’ smiles. While initial dental laser technology was used primarily for soft tissue treatments, further innovation in the field of laser dentistry has led to the development of a more versatile instrument – the Solea laser. Dr. Kelly not only uses the Solea Laser for his patients, he is also a premier national trainer for Convergent dental teaching this technology to dentists and their teams from across North America.
Safe and effective for both hard and soft tissue, this advanced dental technology has opened the door to new era of patient care at Aesthetic Dentistry of Scottsdale. By integrating this advanced technology into both routine and complex procedures, Scottsdale cosmetic dentist Dr. Michael Kelly is able to provide clients with the best care possible and lasting health results.
What is the Solea Laser?
Solea is the first CO2 laser system approved by the FDA for both hard and soft tissue. While traditional dental lasers are limited to soft tissue and cannot target enamel, the Solea laser uses rapid pulses of infrared light that can be safely applied to both hard and soft tissue. This advanced tool can be used to treat a wide variety of conditions, ranging from removing bacteria and infected tissue in periodontal pockets to filling cavities and replacing restorations.
FAQ'S
The Benefits of Laser Dentistry in Scottsdale
There are a number of advantages associated with the Solea laser offered by Dr. Kelly, including:
Convenience: Traditional treatments can require multiple appointments in order to completely address a complex dental issues, such as periodontal disease treatment or root canal therapy. By integrating this state-of-the-art instrument into certain procedures, our Scottsdale dentist is able to shorten treatment time, limiting the number of required appointments.
Comfortable: Since treatment with a dental laser is non-invasive and emits no sound or vibrations, patients are often able to undergo Solea laser dental treatments without sedation or anesthesia. By eliminating the discomfort typically associated with dental drills as well as the numbness that comes with local anesthesia, Solea is ideal for patients of all ages.
Versatility: As this tool can be used on both soft and hard oral tissues, Solea presents patients with a convenient, effective alternative for treating diverse dental issues. At Aesthetic Dentistry of Scottsdale, we utilize Solea for a number of treatments, including soft tissue biopsies, gum contouring, frenectomies, restoration placement, and a number of other procedures.
Healing Time: When used on soft tissue, this dental laser cauterizes the treatment site, thereby stimulating accelerated recovery while reducing the risk of post-treatment infection and discomfort. Additionally, the precision and speed of our dental laser ensures that only targeted areas are affected, eliminating the risk of damage to surrounding tissue.
