Feel the Difference That Laser Treatment Makes
No Anesthesia Required
For most procedures, Solea works without an injection, so you won't leave with a numb face.
No Loud Noise
The laser works quietly, removing the sounds and vibrations that can make you tense up.
Faster Healing
Because the laser is so gentle on tissue, your mouth recovers more quickly after treatment.
Single-Visit Care
Most Solea procedures are finished in one appointment, so you spend less time in the chair.
Less Anxiety
Without the needle and drill, your visits feel less intimidating, even if dental care has scared you before.
Great for Kids
Children tolerate Solea well and can head back to school or activities right after their appointment.
Treat Cavities, Gum Disease, & More With the Solea Laser System
At Keene Smiles, your dentist uses the Solea laser to care for a wide range of concerns without the discomfort of traditional methods.
If you have a cavity, we remove decay and restore your tooth without a drill or shot. Since you likely won't need anesthesia, you won't have a numb mouth afterward. If you or your child struggles with a tongue- or lip-tie, we release the tissue gently, without any stitches.
For gum concerns, our laser treats soft tissue with minimal bleeding and ensures a fast recovery. And if snoring disrupts your sleep, Solea Sleep tightens the soft palate tissue in a single, nonsurgical visit. This reduces the vibrations that cause you to snore. Both you and your partner will enjoy more restful sleep.

Frequently Asked Questions About Laser Dentistry
Does laser dentistry hurt?
Most patients feel little to no discomfort during laser treatment. The laser works gently on both teeth and soft tissue, and many procedures require no injection at all. You can expect a much more comfortable experience than traditional dental care, with little to no soreness afterward.
How long does a laser treatment take?
Most Solea laser procedures are completed in a single appointment and often take less time than traditional methods. Because there's no waiting for anesthesia to wear off, you can return to your normal routine right after your visit with no downtime.
What is Solea Sleep and how does it reduce snoring?
Solea Sleep is a nonsurgical snoring treatment that uses the laser to gently tighten tissue in your soft palate. This reduces the vibrations that cause snoring. The procedure is completed in a single visit with no surgery and no lengthy recovery, giving you faster relief.
