In
combination with an air-water spray, this Hydrokinetic™ YSGG laser is able
to replace the drill in many instances. No longer will the whine of the drill
be heard, but rather a tapping sound. Since there is no heat or vibration
from the Waterlase™, the need for anesthetic (THE SHOT) is eliminated in
most cases!

WHAT IS WATERLASE™ TECHNOLOGY?
The Waterlase TM uses the Hydrokinetic TM process which gently washes
away hard tissues with YSGG laser-energized water droplets...
  Hydrokinetic™
energy is produced by combining a spray of atomized water with laser energy.
The resulting Waterlase™ (HydroKinetic™) energy gently and precisely removes
a wide range of human tissue including tooth enamel (the hardest substance
in the body), and soft tissue (gum tissue) with no heat and no pain in most
cases.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF THE WATERLASE™?
No Drills, No Needles, It's Pain-Free! - (in most cases)
  Heat
and vibration are the causes of most of the pain associated with the drill.
Since Hydrokinetic™ cutting does not transmit heat or vibration, MANY DENTAL PROCEDURES CAN BE PERFORMED WITH NO PAIN, VIRTUALLY ELIMINATING THE NEED FOR ANESTHESIA IN MOST CASES.
The
laser's pinpoint accuracy is precise enough that your dentist can leave in
place as much healthy tooth structure as possible, allowing you to keep your
own teeth longer.
In-vitro studies have shown that tooth surfaces treated with the laser are dramatically more cavity-resistant.
Gently
performs numerous soft tissue (gums) procedures with little or no bleeding.
The laser gives your dentist a new high-tech tool for many procedures that
previously required referral to a specialist. Now you can have them performed
during your scheduled appointment and feel better afterwards!
The
Waterlase™ prepares your teeth in a way that maximizes the bonding of tooth
colored fillings, allowing them to last longer.
