Picasso Laser

Our practice is the first practice in Leamington Spa to acquire the Velopex Picasso Laser.

The Velopex Picasso Laser contains two lasers; a 10 watt Gallium Aluminium Arsenate (GaA1As) diode laser and a small laser pointer.

The GaA1As laser is ideal for soft tissue (gum) work – as it does not interact with teeth or bone. It is particularly indicated for both periodontal work where it sterilizes pockets in the gum killing bacteria and Root Canal work where it can sterilize the root canals of the teeth.

The laser energy is fibre delivered – the smallest available fibre being 400 microns.

The Picasso laser is not only user friendly but patient friendly. Patients can settle back for treatment without the noise or vibrations of conventional treatments. It also has a comfort setting so that many treatments can be performed without local anaesthetic and completely pain free.
