Lasers are used in dentistry to perform many procedures such as frenectomy, gum contouring, crown lengthening, enamel shaping, tooth preparation, and root canal treatments.
Due to its precision, dental lasers allow us to gently treat highly specific areas without damaging the surrounding tissues and reducing post-operative discomfort.
Waterlase dentistry is a kinder and more effective alternative to traditional endodontic therapy. It uses laser energy and a gentle spray of air and water that kills up to 96% of bacteria, thus eliminating the need for other harsh chemicals.
With decreased use of medicinal irrigation, Waterlase achieves a significant reduction in bacterial counts in only three minutes compared to 20 to 30 minutes in conventional treatment.
Waterlase dentistry is safe, gentle, and precise, thus promoting a more comfortable patient experience and faster recovery.
Waterlase effectively fights infection and executes disinfection and decontamination prior to obturation, pulpotomy and pulp extirpation.
Waterlase is a cutting-edge system that uses light energy and water to provide our patients a safe and exceptionally gentle dental experience.
With Waterlase, our root canal specialist Dr. Carlos performs minimally invasive endodontic treatments with greater efficacy, more promising long-term results, and reduced retreatment risk. Patients who have undergone root canal therapy with Waterlase typically recover faster and experience less pain during and after surgery.
