About Solea
Solea represents a breakthrough in dental technology. It is a CO2 dental laser system approved by the FDA for hard and soft tissue procedures. Developed in Boston by Convergent Dental, rooted in research from the University of California School of Dentistry, Solea is recognized for its safety and effectiveness.
Operating at a unique 9.3-micron wavelength, the Solea laser targets affected dental structures and soft tissues without emitting harmful radiation. This "laser" technology-light amplification by stimulated radiation emission-enables the treatment of chewing surfaces and interproximal cavities without local anesthesia.
