Benefits of Solea Laser Dentistry for Kids

Dental visits can be a big moment for little ones and their parents, too. At Kingstowne Dental Specialists in Alexandria, VA, we believe in creating a calm, gentle, and stress-free environment from your child's very first visit. One of the most remarkable ways we do that is by using Solea laser dentistry.

This advanced dental technology is transforming the way we care for children's teeth by replacing noisy drills and numbing injections with a quicker, quieter, and pain-free alternative. Whether it's your baby’s first exam or a routine procedure for your older child, our approach helps families feel safe and supported every step of the way.

What Is Solea Laser Dentistry and How Does It Work?

The Solea laser is a groundbreaking CO2 dental laser that allows us to perform many common pediatric procedures without a drill and often without anesthesia. Unlike traditional methods that can trigger anxiety in children, this laser provides a quieter and smoother experience, making dental visits far less intimidating. Here’s what makes Solea stand apart:

• Virtually pain-free: Reduces or eliminates the need for numbing shots in many procedures.
• No vibrations or noise: A gentle hum replaces the discomfort of a dental drill.
• Speed and precision: Procedures are completed faster with excellent accuracy.
• Minimized bleeding and healing time: Greatly reduces trauma to soft tissues.

Dr. Courtney Marzban, our board-certified pediatric dentist, uses this modern tool to make everything from cavity treatment to frenectomies simple and stress-free for children at every stage of development.

Why Kids, and Parents, Love the Solea Laser Experience

We get it. Dental care can be scary, especially for kids who haven’t had the best experience in the past. That’s why Solea laser dentistry can be such a game-changer for families. With shorter chair time and a more comfortable experience, kids leave their appointments feeling proud, not panicked. Some key family-friendly benefits include:

• Faster appointments mean less time out of school, and work for parents.
• Little to no anesthesia reduces lingering numbness that kids find unpleasant.
• Smooth, quiet procedures for a calmer experience in the dental chair.

Parents tell us they love how confident their kids feel after Solea treatments. It’s not just about getting through the appointment. It’s about building lifelong comfort with dental care.

Painless Solutions for Common Pediatric Dental Needs

At Kingstowne Dental Specialists, we’re proud to offer solutions that support every stage of your child’s oral development. The Solea laser is ideal for treating issues that used to be challenging for young patients, such as frenectomies and small cavity restorations. Common Solea laser treatments include:

• Frenectomies: Often needed for tongue- or lip-ties, this soft tissue treatment is faster and more comfortable using the Solea laser. It usually doesn’t require sedation.
• Cavity filling: Quick, pain-free fillings without numbing make this procedure far less stressful for your child.
• Gum contouring or soft tissue procedures: Done with greater precision and faster healing.

Dr. Courtney Marzban ensures each treatment is tailored to the needs and comfort level of your child, using our cutting-edge tools in a warm, nurturing environment.

A Commitment to Gentle Care and Community Values

Our focus extends beyond the dental chair. As a dual-specialty practice offering both pediatric dentistry and orthodontic care under one roof, we make care simpler and more connected for growing families. From early oral health visits, free for kids under 15 months, to advanced orthodontics with Dr. Robert Marzban, DDS, MDS, every step is designed with your child’s comfort in mind.

We’re also deeply committed to the Alexandria community. For each new patient, Kingstowne Dental Specialists contributes to our “Settle the Debt” program, helping pay down local school lunch debt. A smile shouldn’t end at the dental chair.
