Are You a Surgeon or a Dentist?

You spent a lot of time in dental school.  Worked hard, learned a lot, all the while convinced that you wanted to help people, make them healthy. You became a doctor.

Most people look at you as a dentist, not a doctor.  That’s the general public perception.  But you are a doctor.

Most probably see you limited to finding and fixing cavities, although older patients are expanding your field to gum disease. But you are a doctor; if you want, you can offer your patients so much more for their oral health.

As a doctor, you have the basic training and skills to move into over 50 procedures that you can handle with a WaterLase dental laser system.  You are a dentist, a doctor and, yes, a surgeon.  You are what you want to become, what you want to do.  Sure, you need to upgrade specific techniques and skills. But, you can get a WaterLase, take the training and expand your practice with all the endodontic, periodontal and other surgeries and treatments you want. Here is just a limited list:

IN ENDODONTIC SURGERY

• Flap preparation

• Cutting bone to prepare a window access to the apex of the root
