At Poplin Pediatric Dentistry, we’re embracing the future of pediatric dental care by combining advanced technology with a compassionate, kid-friendly approach. One of the most transformative innovations we adopted in 2016 is Solea® laser dentistry, which allows us to provide gentle, virtually pain-free care for children of all ages.
Traditional dental treatments often require drills, needles, and anesthesia—all of which can cause fear and anxiety in children. The Solea laser changes that experience entirely. By using laser-guided precision, we can treat cavities and perform soft tissue procedures without anesthesia over 95% of the time.
This means:
• Little to no anesthesia is needed.
• Faster healing with less bleeding and swelling.
• More comfortable visits, even for nervous patients.
At Poplin Pediatric Dentistry, we know that a child’s early dental experiences can shape how they feel about oral health for the rest of their life. By introducing Solea laser dentistry into our practice, we have removed many of the biggest triggers for dental anxiety. Children can relax in the chair knowing that their treatment will be quick, comfortable, and gentle. Our team takes pride in making each appointment a positive experience, so kids leave with smiles - not fears.
Parents often juggle busy schedules filled with school drop-offs, extracurricular activities, and work commitments. Solea laser dentistry makes visits more convenient by reducing procedure times and eliminating the need for multiple appointments in many cases. Because anesthesia is rarely necessary, kids can return to school, sports, or playtime immediately after their visit. That means less time missed and fewer disruptions for both children and parents.
As Austin continues to grow, families are looking for innovative, family-focused healthcare providers. With Solea laser technology, we’re meeting that need and setting a new standard for pediatric dentistry in our community. We are proud to provide an innovative dental experience for kids - one that promotes comfort, confidence, and lifelong oral health.
