Waterlase® also known as the HydroPhotonics™ process gently washes away decay with laser-energized water droplets. This Waterlase® energy removes a wide range of human tissue, including tooth enamel (the hardest substance in the body) and soft tissue (gum tissue) with no heat or discomfort in most cases, reducing the need for needles and anesthesia.

The benefits of Waterlase® Technology include:

• Many dental procedures can be performed without anesthesia
• The laser's pinpoint accuracy allows the doctor to leave as much healthy tooth structure in place as possible
• Little to no bleeding during soft tissue (gums) procedures
• Prepares teeth in a way that maximizes the bonding of tooth colored fillings
