Solea Dental Laser for Children
We understand that your little ones get anxious about coming to the dentist and something like a dental laser, even though it sounds cool, is bound to make them more nervous. That’s why we use the Solea Dental Laser. It’s an almost noiseless and needle-free way for our dental team to perform a number of procedures that previously required anesthesia, needles, and sutures.
Your child will feel more relaxed and we can get through the procedure faster and more efficiently than ever before.
Solea Hard & Soft Tissue Laser
The Solea Laser allows us to work anywhere in the mouth with a single tool. This revolutionary instrument can remove decay from teeth or work on gums, in case of gum disease. And it can do it all without the need for anesthesia, because it causes virtually no pain. There is also no vibration and no noise, so it’s great for children who are sensitive to sensory stimulation.
What Procedures can be done with Solea?
At our office, we can provide a number of dental procedures using our Solea Dental Laser. We can use it to remove decay, in preparation for a filling; treating tongue and lip ties, frequently without the need for sutures; pulpotomies and Stainless Steel Crowns; and a few other procedures. Dr. Himler will discuss the option of using the Solea Dental Laser for your child’s treatment with you, before we move forward with treatment.
Will My Child Need Anesthesia?
Most likely, your child will not need anesthesia. The Solea Dental Laser provides a nearly pain-free experience and it’s also vibrationless and nearly noiseless, so even children who become anxious because of sensory stimuli should continue to feel at ease. We have anesthesia on hand, in case it’s needed. But, in our experience, most children don’t need it. This also means that your child leaves our office without the typical numb lip and mouth, so they can get back to their normal life right away.
