Dental lasers represent a very sophisticated and advanced development in the supportive technology of dentistry today. At Integrity Dental, we use the Waterlase iPlus — the market's best-selling and most advanced all-tissue dental laser — to deliver safer, more comfortable and minimally invasive treatment for our patients.
Waterlase iPlus — Advanced All-Tissue Laser
The Waterlase iPlus uses a combination of laser energy and a fine water spray to cut, ablate and treat both hard (tooth and bone) and soft (gum) tissues with exceptional precision. This approach is:
- Safe — clinically proven technology with an outstanding safety record.
- Minimally invasive — preserves more healthy tooth structure.
- More comfortable — often reduces or eliminates the need for anaesthetic.
- Faster healing — laser energy promotes clotting and reduces post-operative discomfort.
Hard and Soft Tissue Applications
Hard Tissue (Teeth & Bone)
- Prepare teeth for restorations (fillings and crowns)
- Treat dental decay with minimal drilling
- Especially gentle for children's baby teeth
- Antibacterial / antiviral root canal treatment
Soft Tissue (Gums)
- Treat gum infection and periodontal disease
- Crown lengthening and gum contouring
- Frenectomy procedures (tongue tie & lip tie)
- Biopsies and soft-tissue surgery
Gentle Care for Children
Laser dentistry is especially beneficial for treating children's baby teeth. The reduced need for local anaesthetic and the quieter, less intimidating procedure makes for a far more positive dental experience for young patients — helping establish healthy attitudes towards dental care from an early age.
Tongue Tie & Lip Tie Treatment
The Waterlase iPlus is the laser of choice for tongue tie and lip tie release procedures at The Tongue Tie Clinic — located within Integrity Dental. Laser frenectomy is a key part of every patient's treatment protocol, and is suitable for newborns, older children and adults alike.
The laser procedure offers low risk of bleeding, minimal pain and a dramatically faster healing time compared to conventional scissor or scalpel techniques.
