Dr. Jorge Bastidas is proud to provide Biolase® in Paterson, New Jersey. Biolase is a brand of dental lasers. In our dental office, we use Waterlase, a safe and gentle tool that uses a laser and water spray to perform dental procedures. The Waterlase can perform most procedures without the use of a shot or a drill. The Waterlase can be used for many dental procedures, including:
- Tooth decay removal
- Tooth enamel etching
- Dental implant recovery
- Soft tissue procedures
- Hard tissue procedures
- Crown lengthening
- Root canal therapy
- Surgical gum treatments
The Waterlase has many benefits. This technology combines water, air, and laser energy. Our teeth and tissues are partially made of water and the Waterlase excites the water molecules to cut through the tooth or tissues. Because the Waterlase constantly sprays water, it keeps the tooth or tissues from heating, giving you a pain free dental treatment. With the use of the Waterlase, our dentist can use little or even no anesthetic during dental procedures. Using the Waterlase allows our dentist to work more quickly and efficiently, so he can do multiple simple procedures in one visit, if necessary.
