At Thomas Family Dentistry in Orangevale, CA, your comfort always comes first. That’s why we proudly offer Solea Laser Dentistry, one of the most advanced dental technologies available today. The Solea laser allows us to perform many common dental procedures quickly, comfortably, and often without the need for anesthesia or a drill. Whether you fear shots, dislike the sound of the handpiece, or simply want a smoother dental experience, Solea makes your visit easier from start to finish. The Solea laser is a state-of-the-art, CO₂ dental laser that can treat both teeth and gum tissue with exceptional precision. Unlike traditional dental tools, Solea works silently and vaporizes tissue gently, which significantly reduces discomfort, bleeding, and sensitivity during and after your appointment. Most patients feel so comfortable during Solea treatment that they don’t even need local anesthesia—meaning no needles, no numbness, and no downtime.
✓ No Shots or Anesthesia for Most Fillings — Solea allows us to perform cavity treatment without numbing—ideal for patients who fear needles or dislike the lingering numbness after a visit.
✓ Faster, More Comfortable Procedures — Because you often don’t need anesthesia, we can complete treatments more quickly and efficiently.
✓ Virtually Pain-Free Dentistry — Solea is designed to minimize discomfort, making dental visits much easier for kids, teens, and adults.
✓ Quiet, Drill-Free Experience — No vibrations. No noise. No pressure. Just a smooth, quiet dental experience.
✓ Faster Healing & Reduced Bleeding — Laser precision means less trauma to surrounding tissue, allowing for quicker recovery times.
✓ Ideal for Sensitive Patients — Great for those with dental anxiety, strong gag reflexes, or sensitivity to sound and vibration.
✓ Safe for All Ages — Solea is doctor-approved and safe for adults and children, making it perfect for family dentistry.
