Gentle Wave is an enhancement tool used to assist in the cleaning of the root canal system. 

This exciting new technology is now available for use in both our Monterey and Salinas locations. 

Dr. Appelin says: "Having a more predictable cleaning system will improve our outcomes and increase sucess rates and ultimately enhance our ability to care for our patients"

The GentleWave Procedure is a state-of-the-art alternative to standard root canal treatment. The
ultracleaning technology of the GentleWave Procedure is an advanced combination of fluid dynamics
and a broad range of soundwaves that work together to reach into the microscopic spaces1,2 and remove
bacteria, debris and tissue.2 The GentleWave Procedure is so effective at cleaning and disinfecting the root
canal system, there’s less chance of failure over time.3

The GentleWave Procedure uses a minimally invasive1 protocol to access the infected root canal system,
which means it is preserving more of the natural tooth and, in doing so, is helping to keep the tooth’s
structure strong. With the GentleWave Procedure we can also typically clean and fill the tooth in just one
appointment,3 which may reduce the number of appointments required.

Achieving an exceptional level of clean requires advanced endodontics—and that’s something we take
pride in providing. Contact us today to discover the GentleWave Difference for yourself.
