Waterlase MD™ Laser Dentistry
Maximum Comfort – Complete Efficiency – Stunning Results
Dental anxiety, whether mild or severe, can prevent patients of all ages from taking a proactive approach to receiving dental care. WaterLase dentistry works without heat, vibration, and drilling to provide a minimally invasive, precise, comfortable alternative to traditional treatments.
What is WaterLase dentistry?
The WaterLase utilizes advanced laser technology to:
- Help reduce patient anxiety
- Provide minimally-invasive restorations
- Comfortably prepare patients for fillings
- Provide treatment using less anesthesia
- Reduce bleeding, post-operative swelling, and pain after treatment
- In most cases, treatment can be completed without needing to numb your child's mouth
- Provide a more efficient treatment in less time
How does it work?
Laser dentistry has revolutionized the way patients receive dental treatment. WaterLase uses the high-tech combination of YSGG (yttrium-scandium-gallium-garnet) laser energy and water to provide a more comfortable dental experience with lasting results.
WaterLase is so precise that your doctor is able to perform restorations to the teeth, gum, and bones without causing damage to surrounding areas in the mouth.
Is it safe?
WaterLase is safe and effective. First approved for use in 1998, WaterLase is now used by dentists around the world to deliver accurate, comfortable treatments that meet the needs of patients of all ages.

Painless Fillings
Painless fillings are achievable through modern dentistry techniques, including laser technology, computer-controlled anesthesia (The Wand® STA), and air abrasion, which eliminate the need for traditional drills and needles. These methods reduce discomfort, noise, and anxiety, often allowing patients to avoid lingering numbness.
Make your fear of needles a thing of the past!
When it comes to going to the dentist, we understand that your child may feel some anxiety and have tailored our practice to meet his/her needs. Our office is proud to offer the Wand STA Single Tooth Anesthesia System, making your child's dental experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
Many types of dental treatments rely on anesthetic injections. STA Single Tooth Anesthetic System using the Wand hand-piece is a computer-controlled dental injection system and one of the most efficient ways to numb an area because of its slow, steady delivery of anesthetic. This also means less discomfort for your child as most of the sting from an injection comes from the solution being delivered too quickly. You can be reassured that at our office your child's comfort is our top priority.
Innovative, Advanced, Patient-friendly Design
The Wand looks more like a pen than a syringe, and the needle at its tip is very small and discreet. With the aid of state-of-the-art technology, the Wand delivers exactly the anesthetic you need at exactly the right rate, so you have nothing to fear about how well it works.
We are dedicated to creating an optimum experience for every aspect of your child's dental care. Please contact our office to learn more about the Wand STA Single Tooth Anesthesia System and how it can help your child have an anxiety-free dental experience.
