IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 15, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- BIOLASE, Inc.
(NASDAQ: BIOL), the global leader in dental lasers, is proud to
announce that Waterlase dental lasers received U.S. and
Canada regulatory clearance for
crown and veneer removal. This new indication allows dentists to
remove crowns and veneers in less than five minutes using laser
technology. BIOLASE is the only dental laser company with this
clearance.
Laser crown and veneer removal can offer a more pleasant
experience for both the dentist and the patient. This new
indication allows dentists to reduce the time it takes to remove
crowns and veneers from sometimes 30 minutes to less than five
minutes using laser technology. It can also eliminate excess heat
by using the natural light of the laser and allows for crowns and
veneers to be saved for reuse in some cases.
"This new indication aligns directly with our mission of
advancing dentistry," said BIOLASE CEO, Todd Norbe. "With this clearance, we can now
allow patients undergoing crown and veneer removal access to a
minimally invasive option that encompasses all of the benefits
dental lasers bring to a variety of other procedures, which
includes spending less time in the dental chair."
