What is Solea laser dentistry and how is it different?
Solea is an advanced dental laser that uses a unique wavelength to perform procedures with virtually no pain, often eliminating the need for anesthesia entirely. Dr. Hull is the only dentist in Virginia with this technology. Unlike traditional drilling, the Solea laser is virtually silent, causes no vibration, and often requires no numbing shots. Most patients experience no discomfort during or after procedures, and there's typically no recovery time needed. It's especially beneficial for patients with dental anxiety or those who want to avoid the numbness from traditional anesthesia.

Costs vary depending on the treatment needed. The practice accepts most major dental insurance plans and will work to maximize your benefits.

“My experience with Dr. Hull today was a 5/5, and if I could rate higher, I would. After negative experiences at a different dental facility, I was nervous for my first appointment here. My fear was, I’m certain, palpable, but the entire staff was so kind. I appreciate the time he took to explain the procedure I needed, outlining the pros and cons for alternatives, and taking the time to talk with me and ease some concerns I had. He's knowledgable, competent, explains things in a way that make sense, and doesn't engage in fear-based sales tactics. I am grateful for the time he took - dental providers are busy, so that time is very much appreciated. His entire staff was friendly, very helpful, and I left feeling optimistic and grateful for the experience. Thank you so much, Dr. Hull and staff! -Olivia”
