Product operations

Strong light absorption by water molecules over a wavelength of 2.940 nm. By absorbing this energy, vaporization ensues causing explosive volume expansion that result in superfluous microexplosions leading to the removal of tissue.

The Fidelis Er:YAG laser offers the option of choosing a pulse duration based on the surface and dental tissue treatment chosen. The availability of a variety of pulse durations (Variable Square Pulse Technology) is a unique concept that facilitates faster cavity preparation.

Precision work of removing only the damaged tissue is possible thanks to the various new hand pieces and laser tips that are available. The improvement in the water spray in the hand pieces is a very important change from the earlier systems. The spray function is not only more efficient, but also gives you the ability to fine tune the spray.

Q&A

Is the laser noisy?

Yes, the noise created by the Er:YAG laser during preparation is caused by microexplosions. This is a new noise and thus noticeable to the dentist unlike the noise produced by the bur that the dentist no longer notices. The patient however, connects the noise of the bur with unpleasant vibrations and pressure. The patient will not experience this discomfort with the laser.

Why the use of a mirror arm in the Fidelis as opposed to fiber optics?

The quantity of energy per pulse and the specific VSP technology used are not compatible with present fiber optics. The mirror arm is a lot more flexible than what you might think at first.
