Drill free dentistry

We have invested in the very latest technology- the Waterlase i Plus 2.0. With this amazing dental laser we are able to provide drill free dentistry. Yes, that is correct; dentistry without drilling! Due to the incredible properties of the laser, almost 80% of dental filling cases can be treated without any anaesthetic- so no needles! However, there is more to the laser than simply replacing the dental drill. We can perform all soft tissue procedures using the laser meaning that the traditional scalpels are no longer required, which means less trauma and quicker recovery. There's more! The laser wavelength disinfects as it works, eliminating bacteria, viruses and major pathogens. This in turn provides a major turning point in regeneration of tissues. This has a major impact on all forms of dentistry especially periodontal and implant dentistry. If you detest the dental drill, have a severe needle phobia, want to destroy bacteria in your mouth, have improved outcomes, regenerate tissue and simply enjoy your dental care, contact us today.

Laser dentistry is at Progressive Dentistry.
