A Change for the Better

Solea® is a state-of-the-art dental laser that replaces the dental drill in most procedures. The laser causes less discomfort during procedures and doesn’t make any noise or vibrations. It’s so gentle that most patients don’t even need anesthesia. Say goodbye to painful drilling and loud vibrations, and say hello to the Solea Dental Laser.

What is Solea?

Solea is a CO2 dental laser used for hard and soft tissue procedures. With an advanced computer system and unique wavelengths, it’s virtually painless. The Solea laser is used for a variety of treatments from small cavities to more complex oral surgeries. With this painless, quiet tool, patients may forget they’re even in the dental chair!

Why Choose Solea?

The Solea laser makes both our job and the patient’s experience better. Solea works more quickly, and is more precise than traditional drills, which means we can complete most procedures in a single appointment. With less time spent in the dental chair, less pain, and faster healing, our patients love this new tool as much as we do.
