The Waterlase
MD technology used in our practice has many advantages to the
patient and clinician. The technology itself is the most advanced
product on the laser market today. The capabilities and versatility
of the Waterlase MD machine impressed Dr.
Singer significantly enough to convince him to integrate it
as a service in his practice.

Heat, vibration and pressure are the primary causes
of pain associated with the use of the traditional dental drill. Since
cutting both hard and soft tissues (teeth and gums) with the Waterlase®
does not generate heat, vibration or pressure, many dental procedures
can be performed with fewer shots, less need for anesthesia, less
use of the drill and fewer numb lips! Additionally, using the Waterlase®
for gum procedures reduces bleeding, post-operative pain, swelling
and the need for pain medication in many cases. |

Waterlase® dentists are able to remove tooth enamel
decay (the hardest substance in the body), bone and gum tissue precisely
while leaving surrounding areas unaffected. This conserves and allows
you to keep more of the healthy tooth structure.
High speed drills can cause hairline cracks and fractures in the teeth
that eventually lead to future dental problems. Waterlase® reduces
damage to healthy portions of the tooth and minimizes trauma.
Waterlase® cavity preparations can increase bond strength of tooth-colored
restoration
resulting in longer lasting fillings.
Due to its conservative, gentle cutting action and coagulating capabilities,
the Waterlase® performs many soft tissue (gum) procedures with
little or no bleeding and less post-op swelling.
The Waterlase® is extremely versatile. It can be used for a wide
range of hard and soft tissue procedures. From decay removal, cavity
preparation, root canals, smile design, gum and bone surgical procedures
and many others.
