What would you say if you could have your fillings placed comfortably without needles and drills? You'd probably say, "Where do I sign up?" Well, now you can with a revolutionary new laser called the Waterlase(TM). We are proud to be one of the first offices in the Novi area to offer Waterlase(TM) dentistry.

The "popcorn popping" sound you hear during treatment is created by the laser energizing very tiny molecules of water. The resulting energy gently and precisely removes a wide range of tissue including tooth enamel (the hardest substance in the body), soft tissue (gum tissue) and decay with no heat or discomfort, thus eliminating the need for anesthesia (novocaine) in the majority of cases.

Sure, injections should not really be uncomfortable. But KNOWING you're getting one is psychologically painful even if you can't feel the needle - especially for kids. By not recieving an injection, not feeling the vibration of the the dental handpiece, and by not hearing the sound it gives off, kids never become afraid of the dentist. Also, after dental treatments, it's not unusual for a person to bite their lip or tongue because of being numb. With the Waterlase(TM), there is no numbness, sothere is less chance of an accidental injury after dental treatment.

Benefits of using the Waterlase(TM):

  • Most dental procedures can be performed with no discomfort, virtually eliminating the need for anesthesia in the majority of procedures.

  • The laser's pinpoint accuracy is precise enough that we are able to leave behind as much healthy tooth structure as possible, allowing you to keep your own teeth for a lifetime.

  • It effectively performs numerous soft tissue (gums) procedures with little or no bleeding. The laser gives us a new high-tech tool for many procedures that previously required stitches and healing packs.

  • The Waterlase(TM) kills bacteria and viruses as it cuts, leaving less chance for an infection.

  • A dental laser prepares your teeth in a way that maximizes the bonding of tooth colored fillings, allowing them to last longer.

  • The Waterlase(TM) can effectively treat canker and cold sores. It can take the pain away from canker sores instantly, and allow them to heal often within 24 hours. And the LASER kills the viruses that cause cold sores, allowing rapid healing so that you don't have to hide your embarrassment for the next 2 weeks.
