iPlus Cutaway

Product Description

The Waterlase iPlus System dual-wavelength all-tissue laser is designed to provide improved cutting speed and precision for broader applications. An Intuitive User Interface addresses the key needs for novice laser dentists and delivers more power, control and versatility for experienced laser dentists. The iPlus features an intuitive applications-based user interface with a large high resolution touch screen programmed with over 50 factory-loaded procedure presets. The iPlus incorporates proprietary ‘2R Powered’ technology creating an Er;Cr:YSGG laser with the highest pulse energy at short pulses among all Erbium-based, 3-micron lasers in the industry, with the highest pulse repetition rates. The result is very fast removal of hard tissue with no discomfort to the patient with a smooth surface finish. The iPlus is available in a system configuration and features the proprietary 2780 nm YSGG technology with an integrated iLase 940 nm diode laser or as a standalone unit. The YSGG technology is the industry standard for all tissue dental lasers since its introduction in 1997. The iPlus enhances the capabilities of the YSGG by providing a diode laser that can be utilized for unexpected soft-tissue cases in an adjacent treatment room, better control of bleeding, and the potential for temporary pain relief and teeth whitening. Other innovations include a new fiber delivery system with little to no "pull-back” on the dentist’s hand and a new 3X brighter illumination source. This allows for complete freedom of movement of the handpiece, greatly reducing hand fatigue throughout the day in combination with excellent site visibility.

 

 

 

Why Waterlase Dentistry™?

Doctors have used lasers for years to provide better care for their patients – in LASIK vision correction, for removing skin blemishes, and in all kinds of surgery. Now, thanks to your dentist, you can benefit from advanced laser technology for your dental care, with Waterlase Dentistry. Your dentist has chosen to invest in Waterlase to provide you with the highest standard of dental care. Here are some of the benefits you will experience with Waterlase.

More Comfortable

Waterlase Dentistry uses laser energy and a gentle spray of water to perform a wide range of dental procedures – without the heat, vibration and pressure associated with the dental drill. With many procedures, it’s possible to use less anesthetic, and often no anesthetic at all.

More Convenient

Your Waterlase Dentist can often get you in and out of the dentist chair faster, since it’s less likely that you’ll need an injection – research shows that the vast majority of patients don’t. It’s nice to avoid that shot, isn’t it? Not using anesthetic can allow your dentist to perform procedures that used to require more than one visit in a single appointment. Also, a Waterlase Dentist can perform procedures that once meant an additional trip to a specialist, saving you even more time.

More Precise

A Waterlase Dentist can remove decay far more precisely than a dentist using a drill. This saves more of the healthy parts of your tooth. Saving your natural teeth can save you from the discomfort and cost of bridges, dentures and implants.

Improved Cavity Fillings

Waterlase® cavity preparations can increase bond strength of tooth-colored restoration resulting in longer lasting fillings.

Less Bleeding And Swelling

Due to its conservative, gentle cutting action and coagulating capabilities, the Waterlase® performs many procedures on the gums with little or no bleeding and less post-op swelling.

Is Waterlase Dentistry™ Safe?

Waterlase Dentistry™ is one of the most advanced dental technologies available today. It was developed by BIOLASE Technology, the leader in dental lasers. BIOLASE dental lasers have been used to treat millions of patients.

A Waterlase laser creates special, highly concentrated light energy, and sends it through an optical fiber to its hand piece. Your dentist uses the hand piece to aim the laser energy at precisely the areas to be treated. Some laser systems combine the laser energy with a gentle spray of water.

Waterlase Dentistry was developed specifically to repair decayed and damaged teeth, and treat gum and other soft tissue in the mouth safely and comfortably. It can be harmful to eyes, however, so anyone in the treatment room when the laser is being used must wear special protective glasses.

How does Waterlase Dentistry™ Work?

Your dentist’s Waterlase® laser system combines laser energy and a spray of water in a patented technology called Hydro photonics™ to perform a wide range of dental procedures on teeth, gum and bone more comfortably.

What can Waterlase Dentistry™ Do?

Waterlase MD, C100 or Earlier Waterlase Hard and Soft Tissue Lasers

Waterlase Dentistry can be used for many types of dental restorations, including:

• Class I, II, III, IV and V cavity preparation

• Caries removal

• Hard tissue surface roughening or etching

• Enameloplasty, excavation of pits and fissures for placement of sealants

Tooth enamel is the hardest material in the human body. No wonder dentists have always resorted to tough tools like the high-speed drill to work on it. Waterlase Dentistry™ is a gentler way to prepare restorations. From the moment then dentist begins to work with Waterlase Dentistry™, the patient will feel the difference!

What can Waterlase Dentistry™ Do?

Waterlase MD, C100 or earlier Waterlase all-tissue lasers, or the ezlase, Diolase Plus or LaserSmile soft tissue lasers

We may use Waterlase Dentistry laser to treat gums or any other soft tissue in the mouth to:

• Improve a Patient’s Smile

We may suggest contouring or shaping a patient’s gums using Waterlase Dentistry to improve the appearance of their smile – safely removing excess gum tissue that may give them a “gummy” smile, or make their front teeth appear irregular in size or shape.

• Remove Oral Growths

We may use Waterlase Dentistry™ to remove growths or excess tissue in a patient’s mouth including gum tissue over an interrupted tooth, small “tags” called papilla, and growths called fibromas.

• Fix a “Tongue Tie” or Prevent Gum Recession

Connections that restrict the movement of a patient’s tongue or cause their gums to recede can be “released” with Waterlase Dentistry™.

• Treat Periodontal Disease

Waterlase Dentistry can be used to remove debris and bacteria between a patient’s teeth and gums that can cause bleeding gums, gum recession and even loss of teeth.  Waterlase Dentistry™ has been shown to reduce bacteria and may even stimulate gum tissue growth.

• Relieve the Pain of Cold Sores and Fever Blisters

Waterlase Dentistry™ often provides immediate relief from painful cold sores and fever blisters. We may also use a Waterlase laser to perform other procedures not listed here. The dentist can provide you with the information you need to inform patients about these procedures

How Waterlase Dentistry can benefit
your practice: Dentists Speak Out

We asked thousands of dentists who have incorporated the Waterlase laser in their practices how it has benefited their practice. Here are some of the answers they gave us.

“Every single patient is amazed at how fast, easy, and pain-free the Waterlase procedure was performed. They question me with “that’s it!?” after I raise the chair. A 30-40 min appointment is now completed in 5-10 minutes, if even that!”

Dr. Chris Bugg
General Dentist
Cushing OK

“The Waterlase MD is our work horse. I cannot overstate the advantage of their use in preparations on primary teeth without local anesthesia. This feature alone transformed my enthusiasm for pediatric dentistry.”

Dr. Betty Barr
Pediatric Dentist
Westminster CO

“As far as dentistry goes, I use it, as I said, daily for little things – just doing a Class II composite, some tissue in the way, I’m able to clean up that tissue, again, do a better filling, cleaner, better, patient doesn’t know that there was such a different procedure there, but I know that we’ve done the best work that we could do.”

Dr. David Greene
General Dentist
New York NY

“The main benefits of the laser technology for me as well as my patients are the speed and efficiency at which I can do procedures, the quality outcome, the consistent quality outcome that I get through utilization of this type of technology, the wow factor that patients really see their practitioner as being cutting edge.”

Dr. Nick Salvati
General Dentist
San Clemente CA

“I didn’t know its potential when I decided to buy it, but took a chance that I would find more and more uses for it. Well, after one year, I find myself using it all day, every day.”

Dr. Mark Jankowski
Periodontist
Englewood CO

“The Waterlase has allowed me to enhance my practice of “bread and butter dentistry”, perform procedures that I never would have done as a general dentist, and most importantly, keeps my dental spirit fresh and excited on a daily basis.”

Dr. Christina Do
General and Dentist
Costa Mesa CA

“Waterlase RFT has revolutionized our practice of endodontics. For the first time we are within reach of sterilizing an infected root canal system – unheard of in the specialty of endodontics! Combined with a unique protocol in our office, the Waterlase MD may be the missing link that enables us to kill bacteria deep within the dentinal tubules. In our practice we no longer aim to “entomb” bacteria but rather to eliminate bacteria."

Dr. Justin Kolnick
Endodontist
White Plains NY

“As an associate, I enthusiastically used the Waterlase MD. Faced with increasing cost overruns in the construction of my own office, I worried about the expense of a laser. Now, after sixteen months, I wouldn’t have it any other way! The laser sets my practice apart! I enjoy being able to inform anxious parents I have an option for their child’s dental treatment that does not involve shots.”

Dr. Karen Foster
Pediatric Dentist
Aurora CO

“Waterlase definitely attracts a lot of new patients for my office. But, my practice is mainly driven by patients themselves. And we – I don’t do any advertisement. Patients refer their friends and family to us. And literally, we probably get about 30-40 new patients a month just by word of mouth.”

Dr. Doug Christie
General Dentist
Mesa AZ

“As a Board Certified Periodontist who has been practicing periodontics for 26 years, the use of the Waterlase MD has totally transformed and invigorated my approach to periodontal therapy. In the twenty months that I have been using the Waterlase MD, I have been able to shift from a primarily surgical approach to treating periodontitis to a primary non-surgical approach with results that are equivalent to surgical therapy.”

Dr. Craig Rubinoff
Periodontist
Rancho Bernardo CA
