Convergent Dental Introduces Solea® Software 3.2
-->
Introduced at this Year’s Chicago
Midwinter Dental Meeting
Significantly Faster Cutting
Even Easier to Use
Reported Rapid Analgesic Onset
Needham, MA (February 22, 2018) – Convergent Dental Inc., developers of Solea®,
the industry-leading CO2 all-tissue dental laser system, unveiled
the new Solea Software (SW) 3.2 update today. The 3.2 version of Solea software
is the latest in a series of updates that have continually improved the
performance of Solea since its launch in 2013. Consistent with previous
updates, Solea SW 3.2 offers a significant increase in cutting speed, smoother surface
finishes, and Solea’s industry-renowned analgesic effect. Solea SW 3.2 further
simplifies the user interface with a single mode that cuts any tissue in the
oral cavity – no settings required. Solea
SW 3.2 is delivered via Wi-Fi, free of charge to all existing Solea users with
an active service contract.
Exciting new features of Solea SW 3.2 include:
All New Cutting Algorithms:
Everything
from cutting speed to patient comfort is dictated by complex algorithms that
run under Solea’s hood. Data received from existing users is leveraged to
continually improve how energy is delivered providing optimal performance for
the dentist and an optimal experience for the patient. Most importantly, all of
this happens behind the scenes. The dentist simply aims the laser at the target
tissue and uses Solea’s variable speed foot pedal to obtain the desired
cut. The algorithms run behind the
scenes so the dentists don’t have to manage complicated settings or become
laser experts.
A Simplified Graphical User Interface (GUI):
·
Single mode
for either hard or soft tissue – Dentists simply select a spot size, place Solea’s
aiming beam on the target tissue, step on the variable-speed foot pedal, and
go!
·
Simplified Push
Buttons –
Easy and intuitive ON/OFF push buttons have been added, eliminating steps required
before starting up Solea or shutting it down.
·
Low Power Mode
– Enables
more control at the low end of the power range for more sensitive applications.
“This update demonstrates
our continued commitment to increasing the value of Solea to our customers over
time,” remarked Michael Cataldo, Convergent Dental CEO. “The better Solea
performs and the easier it is to use, the more our customers can do with it.
Even better, all that happens with a software update delivered via Wi-Fi on
their existing hardware platform.”
According to Dr. Mark Mizner, “As the very first user,
I’ve watched Solea evolve and improve over the years. After a dozen or so updates,
I truly thought it couldn’t get any better. With Solea SW 3.2, the onset of
analgesia was almost instantaneous. It cuts faster and even smoother than ever
before. It was an amazing experience for both me and my patient; the results
were absolutely beautiful. I didn’t think it was possible for Solea to be even
simpler to use but Convergent did it again.”
Dental professionals are
encouraged to experience how the Solea SW 3.2 can work for them by visiting Convergent
Dental at the 2018 Chicago Midwinter dental meeting at Booth #4806.
