A more comfortable dental experience starts with better technology. At Oklahoma Smiles, Dr. Hulsey uses Solea laser dentistry to make many treatments faster, quieter, and nearly drill-free.
Solea Laser Certification — LEAP Certified
American Dental Association (ADA)
STEP 1:
CONSULTATION
Dr. Hulsey will assess whether your procedure is a good candidate for Solea laser treatment. Most cavity treatments and many soft tissue procedures qualify. He will walk you through what to expect so you feel fully informed before treatment begins.
HOW IT WORKS
Solea is a CO2 dental laser system designed to replace the drill for most cavity treatments and soft tissue procedures. It provides precise, quiet treatment with greater comfort, making it an excellent option for patients with dental anxiety.
One of the biggest advantages of Solea is that approximately 80% of filling procedures can be completed without local anesthesia, allowing many patients to enjoy a faster, more comfortable dental experience with little interruption to their day.
Dr. James Hulsey has completed advanced Solea training, including Solea Sleep certification for snoring treatment. He uses Solea technology for cavity treatment, minimally invasive soft tissue procedures, and select airway-related treatments, providing modern, comfortable care for a wide range of dental needs.

STEP 2:
LASER TREATMENT
Using the Solea CO2 laser, Dr. Hulsey precisely removes decay or treats the target tissue without the vibration or noise of a traditional drill. In most cases, anesthesia is not required, and the procedure is completed quickly and comfortably.
STEP 3:
RECOVERY
Because there’s no numbing agent involved in most Solea procedures, there’s no lingering numbness after your appointment. Most patients walk out feeling completely normal and are able to eat, drink, and go about their day right away.
If you have been putting off dental treatment because of anxiety, sensitivity, or a previous difficult experience, Solea laser dentistry may be the solution you have been looking for. At Oklahoma Smiles, we want every patient to feel genuinely comfortable in the chair.
Dr. Hulsey is happy to discuss whether Solea is the right approach for your upcoming treatment during your consultation. Many patients are surprised by how different the experience feels compared to traditional dentistry.
To schedule an appointment at our Oklahoma City office, fill out our online form or give us a call. We look forward to showing you what modern, comfortable dentistry looks like.
