Windy City Smiles uses the latest technology to provide you and your family with the highest quality care. We have replaced our traditional dental drill with the Biolase® Waterlase® laser to provide the most advanced dental services to you and your family.

Our laser uses a combination of water and light to replace the drill. The laser energizes the water droplets and the droplets actually do the work! We can use the laser for the following procedures:

  • Cavities
  • Root Canal
  • Cosmetic Gum Recontouring
  • Soft tissue procedures (such as smile re-design)
  • Dental Surgery
  • Canker/Cold sores
  • Aphthous Ulcer treatment
  • Frenectomy

Benefits of Laser Dentistry

This state of the art technology provides numerous benefits to the patient. Here are the most important benefits to you:

  • Many patients find that with the Waterlase®, they no longer need painful, uncomfortable anesthetic shots. They leave the office without feeling numb!
  • You will be out of our office quicker, because the Waterlase® enables us to work faster than with the traditional drill. This means that you and your family are out of the chair and back to enjoying life as soon as possible.
  • If you are disturbed by the whine of the dental drill you will be pleasantly surprised at the quietness of the laser.
  • Your fillings last longer because the laser enables them to bond more securely to your teeth.

The Waterlase® makes surgical procedures more comfortable because there is less bleeding, less swelling and faster healing than with using traditional instruments.
