Biolase Waterlase MDX All Tissue Laser

Description

Description
The MDX delivers 300 mJ of energy at 8 W, and it can easily be upgraded to a 450 mJ (9 W) model for 50% faster cutting as clinical skills improve and applications expand (see ?MDX Specs?). This next-generation of the best-selling WaterLase MD features improvements to the laser engine and delivery system ergonomics, and it enables rapid hardtissue cutting speed with unprecedented affordability.
Time-Tested Technology
The MDX is built on the technologies and reputations of its predecessors, the BIOLASE WaterLase MD and WaterLase iPlus all-tissue lasers.
The Waterlase MD features Hydro- Photonics?a combination of YSGG laser energy and water?which allows the clinician to perform a wide range of conventional procedures with less anesthetic. Known for its precision and accuracy, the MD enables treatment of targeted areas of both tooth structure and soft tissue while maintaining the structural integrity of the tooth and leaving surrounding areas unaffected.
The Waterlase MD became the company?s flagship product, breaking new ground in the areas of cutting speed, user interface, and ergonomic design. In 2011 that ?flagship? designation was overtaken by the company?s new WaterLase iPlus, an even faster, more powerful machine. It delivers up to 10 W of power at 600 mJ, which makes it the most powerful laser on the global market at the short pulse length of 50 ?s, all through a highly intuitive preprogrammed user interface for everything from routine restorative cases to specialty periodontal, cosmetic, and endodontic procedures.
The iPlus features Biolase?s 2780 nm YSGG technology with the versatility of a dual-wavelength configuration; namely, an integrated iLase 940 nm diode laser to handle unexpected soft-tissue cases, better bleeding control, and the potential for temporary pain relief and teeth whitening.
As anticipated, the iPlus proved beneficial for experienced laser dentists who had been anxiously awaiting a machine that would deliver more power, control, and versatility. However, the new laser also provided many of the ?uninitiated? with an easier-than-expected, highly intuitive introduction to all-tissue laser dentistry. The MDX takes this one step further, with a price point that puts the technology within reach of nearly any dentist.
