WaterLase
The All-Tissue Laser
Water molecules in tissue absorb
laser energy from WaterLase and
vaporize, resulting in an atraumatic
ablation of the tissue
Minimal trauma or bleeding
No heat, no vibration, and little to no pain
Reduces or eliminates need for anesthesia
Significantly reduces cross contamination
No microfractures
Extensive patent protection
Medical applications
Ophthalmology
Orthopedics

WaterLase Value Proposition
Expands dentists’
practice by enabling
them to perform procedures that
they would otherwise refer to
specialists, for example:
Gingivectomy
= $160
$200
Perio Treatment
= $375
$1,000
Hard-tissue Crown Lengthening
=
$500
$700
Herpetic or Aphthous Ulcer
= $300
$500
Frenectomy
= $400
$600
Increases efficiency
With no anesthesia, the WaterLase also
increases efficiency and allows the dentist to
work in multiple quadrants in a single visit;
equating to $250
750 per day in additional
revenue
A dentists’
return on investment can be
500 to 1,500%
Procedures are easy to learn and
training is included in the cost of device
WaterLase technology substantially
reduces the risk of cross contamination
15% of “sterilized”
burs and up to 76% of
“sterilized”
endodontic files carry pathogenic
micro-organisms
Autoclaving fails one out of every seven times to
decontaminate burs

Practice running at approximately $1M per year in 2010;
purchased a WaterLase iPlus in January 2011
Practice generated $1.7M in 2011
Dr. Peck performed ~75 frenectomies in 2011 which
generated about $35,000 in a few hours of work
Purchased second WaterLase iPlus in Sept 2012
Practice generated $2.0M in 2012

today, short pulses are known to
cause less thermal damage and
produce cleaner cuts
Portable console allows for device to
move about dental clinic
