Solea is a powerful dental laser that replaces the dental drill in the majority of procedures in our practice. In fact, nearly every patient skips anesthesia because they just don’t need it. Solea is our way of keeping you happy. Because more than anything, we love to see you smile.
The majority of hard and soft tissue procedures in our office are done with virtually no anesthesia and soft tissue procedures are done with virtually no bleeding. Blood-free and anesthesia-free procedures represent a major leap forward in dentistry, as we are able to execute multi-quadrant dentistry, fillings on the fly, and soft tissue procedures in a single appointment. What does that mean for you, our patients? You are now able to receive the care you need in a fraction of the time. When patients have anesthesia they typically leave the office with that numb feeling still prevalent. With Solea, you are able to go right out to lunch or back to work without that numb sensation following your appointment. Solea is truly changing what it means to go to the dentist.

Laser Dentistry in NYC
Can you imagine the essential services of the dentist with no drilling, no needles, and no discomfort? At Central Park Dentists, our innovative laser treatments make fear of the dentist a thing of the past.
What is laser dentistry?
Laser dentistry marks a new generation of dental treatments, and involves using a high-powered laser beam to carry out procedures without drills, scalpels or stitches. The latest laser treatment technologies are not yet in the mainstream, but you can access such procedures at our Manhattan practice.
Solea laser dentistry
At Central Park Dentists we use Solea, a computer-controlled CO2 dental laser which works on hard or soft tissue. Solea can be used in the majority of procedures offered at our practice, including:
- Preparation of teeth for fillings and crowns
- Gum contouring
- Removing decay
- Sterilizing gum disease
Four benefits of Solea laser treatment
Solea is truly changing what it means to go to the dentist, and represents a major leap forward in dental practice.
- With no drill, scalpel or stitches in sight, Solea significantly reduces damage to the surrounding tissue. This allows us to execute multi-quadrant dentistry and hard and soft tissue procedures all in a single appointment – meaning fewer follow-up visits to the dentist.
- Laser treatment is carried out with virtually no anaesthesia – so no waiting around for it to take effect and leaving the practice with that numb feeling still prevalent for some time afterwards. In comparison, Solea dental procedures allow you to start your treatment immediately and head right out afterwards to get on with your day. In fact, nearly every patient of ours skips anaesthesia altogether!
- Solea greatly reduces bleeding in soft tissue procedures. The energy from the laser beam immediately cauterizes any incisions and tissue regenerates more quickly, leading to a shorter recovery time.
- The high-powered Solea beam instantly sterilizes the area and greatly reduces the risk of infections and complications following your procedure.
Solea is our way of keeping you, our patients, happy. Because more than anything, we love to see you smile.

Is Solea laser dental treatment safe for your teeth and gums?
The safety of laser dentistry is a common question amongst prospective patients. Unlike the powerful industrial lasers you might imagine, the Solea laser is a low-intensity beam. Two types of lasers are used for soft and hard tissue procedures as the wavelengths are absorbed in different ways by gums and teeth.
Thanks to its computer control system, the Solea laser is much more accurate than a drill or scalpel. The spot size of the beam is digitally selected to ensure absolute precision and can be as small as 0.25mm in diameter. The cutting properties of the laser are very carefully adjusted to the task at hand, increasing your dentist’s control.
In fact, laser treatment with Solea is actually safer than standard dental procedures. Whereas drills and other implements can transfer bacteria from one area of the mouth to another, the Solea laser beam kills bacteria wherever it touches.
