What is Solea Laser Dentistry

What Is Solea Laser Dentistry?

Solea is an advanced CO2 dental laser that transforms how many procedures are performed. Its unique wavelength works on both hard and soft tissue, letting Dr. Lari treat teeth and gums with exceptional precision. The laser vaporizes tissue while sealing blood vessels and nerve endings, which means minimal bleeding and less discomfort afterward. Because it is silent and vibration-free, it removes the sounds and sensations many patients dread.

The Benefits of Solea Laser Dentistry

Pain-Free Comfort

Most Solea procedures need little or no anesthesia, so many visits skip the needle entirely.

Faster Healing

Reduced bleeding and swelling help you recover more quickly and comfortably after treatment.

Greater Efficiency

The laser lets Dr. Lari complete multiple procedures in a single, streamlined appointment.

Superior Precision

Solea preserves healthy tooth structure and prevents microfractures for stronger results.

5-star rated dental care from patients like you…

  • 5 out of 5 stars. “Absolutely the best dental office I’ve ever been to!! 100% recommend!!! Just had laser on my teeth instead of numbing!!! Absolutely fantastic! Yes! I recommend this dental office. From front office to back office!” — Susan
  • 5 out of 5 stars. “Hi everyone. I just had the most amazing dental treatment experience yesterday at Elite Dentistry in RSM, thanks to the wonderful Dr. Mehran Rastegar Lari and his whole team who made my experience pain free and friendly, really welcoming. And I'm talking about hygienist Michelle, and RDA Nayeli, (not sure of the name), and Irene and Yesenia in the front office. If you want a friendly and stress free experience, this is the place! And if you want the latest high tech equipment and procedures to not only ease the pain, but speed up the process -- especially when it comes to the need for cutting and replacing / building new crowns, this is the place! And I just can't say enough about Dr. Lari, I mean, he's a master. Honestly, I have a long previous history of experiencing dental treatment of all kinds, of the associated pain, of the stress and anxiety whenever I'd be under the drill. Or the long wait while dentists would need to take impressions, of having all that ordeal of having your mouth filled with cold thick stuff like plaster, waiting for the mold to form. And on and on. But wow, not only didn't Dr. Lari need to take impressions, but he uses a "scanner" inside the mouth to build the model of the teeth digitally in another way. This is wild, and amazing, and so much faster! And so much more comfortable.Even his way of numbing the gums around the teeth seemed less invasive, less painful. It honestly wasn't painful. I remember him using his laser machine device, and it seemed that all processes were faster. And one thing I had never experienced until yesterday was having great well fitting crowns made in-office, fitted and emplaced all on the same day! I was blown away by the technology he has on site, and his -- and his staff's -- expertise in using these latest cutting edge tools. But I think the biggest thing for me was Dr. Lari's friendliness, his care for me as a patient, and that goes for all his team too. Really, I can't say enough about this practice. You guys are the best. Thank you so much, Dr. Lari and team :)” — Christopher
  • 5 out of 5 stars. “I am extremely satisfied with the service. I received everything was handled professionally and effectively. The best experience I've had with the laser, FREE PAIN NO MUNING.

  • 5 out of 5 stars. “Great, professional service. Received a filling repair using a laser. Very easy and recommend to try.” — Ralph
  • 5 out of 5 stars. “I recently had two crowns and two filings worked on by Dr. Lari and his team! I can’t express my gratitude enough for them all! They made the 3 hour procedure painless and easy in every way! Dr. Lari used laser technology on one filing with only numbing gel… this was pain free, amazing! It’s hard to trust a new dentist and I miss Dr. Fonmin and Erin very much, but this team was amazing in every way and I am grateful!” — Jodi
  • 5 out of 5 stars. “Truly the most wonderful experience with a dental office and staff I’ve ever experienced. I came into Elite having recently experienced poor experiences elsewhere in town, and couldn’t believe how kind, capable and professional the team is here. I am 6 months into my Invisalign process and couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend Elite for general dentistry to anyone!” — Alex

  • 5 out of 5 stars. “Dr. Lari is so kind and gentle and a comforting personality that I have not seen in the dentistry business as long as I have had teeth. He is special and we are lucky to have him in our small community. He makes you feel like you are family and you will appreciate that. No hidden charges or overpricing at all at this office. He went way over and above in quality and cosmetic items I needed for what I paid for. He is my hero.” — Steve

You've Got Questions, We've Got Answers

What makes Solea different from traditional treatment?

Solea uses a silent, vibration-free CO2 laser that removes the anxiety of the drill. Most procedures need little to no anesthesia, so they are comfortable and quick.

What procedures can the Solea laser perform?

It handles frenectomies, cavity preparation without drilling, gingival depigmentation, and more. Its efficiency often allows several procedures in one visit.

How long is recovery after laser treatment?

Recovery is typically faster than with traditional methods, and most patients resume normal activities right away. Reduced bleeding and swelling make healing smoother.

Is laser dentistry good for anxious patients?

Yes, the quiet, needle-free experience is ideal for patients who feel nervous about the dentist. Many say it changes how they feel about dental care entirely.

Is the Solea laser safe for children?

Yes, the gentle, silent treatment is well suited to children and teens. It helps younger patients stay calm and comfortable during care.

Is it safe to use Solea laser dentistry?

Absolutely. Solea laser technology has an excellent safety profile and is appropriate for most patients, including children and patients with dental anxiety. The laser's precision minimizes damage to surrounding tissues, and because it seals nerve endings as it works, many patients require little to no anesthesia. Dr. Lari customizes treatment parameters for each patient's specific needs and tissue type. Patients with certain medical conditions, such as uncontrolled diabetes or medications that impair wound healing, may need special consideration, which Dr. Lari discusses during your consultation.

Are most patients candidates for Solea laser treatment?

Most patients benefit from laser treatment, but Dr. Lari evaluates each case individually. Patients with dental anxiety, sensitive teeth, or those who want to minimize anesthesia are excellent candidates, and the procedure is safe for children, teens, and adults of all ages. Patients with certain medical conditions, such as uncontrolled diabetes, immunosuppression, or medications that impair wound healing, may require modified treatment planning. Pregnant patients can often be treated, though Dr. Lari may defer elective procedures to the second trimester.

Will insurance cover Solea laser dentistry?

Most dental insurance plans cover laser procedures when they're medically necessary, particularly for cavity treatment and periodontal procedures. Since laser cavity preparation achieves the same clinical outcome as traditional drilling, many insurers reimburse it at the same rate, though some cosmetic laser applications may not be covered. Our team reviews your insurance benefits before treatment and can provide a clear estimate of your out-of-pocket costs, with flexible financing options if insurance doesn't fully cover your procedure.

How much does solea laser dentistry in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA cost?

The cost of solea laser dentistry depends on a few factors, including the scope of your treatment plan and whether additional imaging or procedures are needed. During your visit, we'll walk you through a clear, itemized estimate before anything begins — no surprises. At Elite Dentistry, we work closely with most insurance providers to maximize your benefits, and we offer flexible financing options and new patient specials to make quality care comfortable for every budget.
