Advantages of Versawave Laser

• A painless and needleless way to remove tooth decay. There is no drilling and no vibration and hence, no discomfort. It removes any necessity for local anesthesia.
• The laser sterilizes the tooth during the process of decay removal and thus, prevents recurring decay and infection under the filling.
• There is no nerve inflammation as this laser does not produce heat as it’s a safe water laser.
• Vibration from drills is also known to result in tooth damage and cracks leading to a need for future root canal treatment or a dental crown. Versawave laser causes no vibration and thus, has no side effects.
• Removes all decay and debris without causing loss of healthy tissue and enamel.
• It is great for kids who are usually scared of the drill, its vibration and sound.

This laser can be used for a wide variety of procedures involving hard, soft, as well as osseous tissues.
