Thanks Ron - For soft tissue procedures like frenectomies, I use local anesthesia a little more than 50% of the time with my adult patients, and less than 10% of the time with the kids and babies. For more involved procedures like gingivoplasty, gingivectomy, crown lengthening, vestibuloplasty, etc. I am using local anesthesia on almost everyone. The settings remained the same from the beginning to the end of the procedure, and the whole procedure is recorded in the video (nothing was done before the video started). On this procedure, the Solea laser was "pedal to the metal" with a pulse duration of 30ms and irrigation at 70%. Best ~ Jason Tubo

Nicely done, Jason. What percent of the time do you need to do local anesthesia and for what soft tissue procedures? And finally, please let us know what settings you were on at the start or did you use a different setting before the video started?

This is an amazing tool for soft tissue work. When I bought my Solea, I had low expectations for soft tissue since I was using a 10,600nm CO2 laser. BUT.... I quickly realized that Solea is an even better soft tissue laser due to speed and precision. Less need for anesthesia as seen here. Combine that with a fast and precise laser for all my direct restorative with 97% anesthesia free and I am a happy dentist.
If you slow down your hand movement a bit you will get a faster and smoother result.
Great job!

Great example of what Solea is capable of doing. Precise, quick, bloodless and anesthesia free.

Surgical Management of Third Molars
Removal of third molars, commonly known as wisdom teeth, continue to be prevalent in our society. Indications for removal vary from pericoronal infections to orthodontic treatment.
Several factors such as age, position of the tooth and affected jaw can dictate the surgical technique. Proper diagnosis and management will be covered at length as well as impaction classification systems, value of imaging, instrumentation and surgical approaches.
Post operative management and methods to recognize, avoid and treat potential complications will also be discussed.

Suturing Principles - Material Selection
The primary objective of dental suturing is to position and secure surgical flaps to promote optimal healing The evolution of su turing materials has enabled decreased potential of postoperative infection and increased successful closure with minimal difficulty. Accurate flap opposition contributes to patient comfort and hemostas is, reduces the wound to be repaired, and prevents unnecessary bone destruction.

Applied Techniques for Predictable Suture Placement Part 1
Surgical suture positioning is crucial to ensure adequate healing and can be accomplished using a variety of suturing methods. Sutures should generally be placed distal to the last tooth and within each interproximal space and should always be inserted through the more mobile flap first The flaps should not be blanched during the tying procedure, and closure should not be positioned closer than 2 mm to 3 mm from the edge of the flap, in order to prevent tearing during the inevitable swelling that…
