RESTORATIVE with Waterlase™
- Conserve more natural tooth structure with minimally invasive laser dentistry
- Waterlase favors the ablation of caries due to its increased water content
- Does not create a smear layer as traditional handpieces can, which aids in bond strength 9
- Decreased post-operative sensitivity and reduces dentin hypersensitivity in most cases 10-12
- Same-day, multi-quadrant treatments require fewer appointments and are more convenient.

Featured Webinar
Speaker: Dr. Brad Labrecque
Join Dr. Brad Labrecque as he shows how to successfully integrate the Er,Cr:YSGG all-tissue laser to improve all aspects in caries removal including soft tissue applications related to restorative dentistry. With 30+ Years of expertise, Dr. Labrecque will walk you through the implementation of the Er,Cr:YSGG all-tissue laser, from diagnosis and preparation to caries removal.
Explore a wide range of topics, including pulp capping, tissue hemostasis for optimum bonding, and surface preparation for bonding with clinical videos, providing you with a clear understanding of how to apply these principles in your own practice.

"From a business perspective, the BIOLASE laser has grown our practice tremendously. We’ve incorporated so many new patients into our practice. They come by word-of-mouth, they come just wanting a laser experience, and I’ve doubled my production on a daily basis."
“I’m doing procedures I would have never done without the BIOLASE laser such as soft tissue biopsies, periodontal surgery or REPAIR surgery, frenectomies, and so much more! It became very obvious that the laser is a phenomenal tool and that is would easily pay for itself.”
“Hands down the ROI has been amazing! We can now treat kids and do the whole mouth in one visit, the kids are more comfortable and able to tolerate treatment more, which means we can do more in a single visit.”
“Being able to cut not only hard tissue, but soft tissue, to be able to improve wound healing, and less swelling, less pain, and less anesthetic has changed the way we do this minimally invasive dentistry.”
