 What Customers Think About DEKA


Our Products

"My DEKA laser has been one of the top five best decisions I've made in 22 years of dentistry.  We have shifted to the next level."

Dr. Robert L. Lepard, Muleshoe, TX

"With 16 years of dental laser experience using every wavelength, I thought I had seen it all. I have used Nd.YAG, Diode, Erbium and CO2 lasers for thousands of procedures.  I didn’t think there was anything new on the dental market that could revolutionize my practice – boy, was I wrong!  The characteristics of the DEKA Ultraspeed CO2 laser make it an ideal laser for general practitioners, periodontists and prosthodontists.  The 21st century articulated arm delivery system is so much more reliable and efficient than other CO2 delivery systems in delivering the exact amount of laser energy necessary for each procedure.  The advanced ultrashort pulsing characteristics of the unit make tissue charring a thing of the past."

Dr. Robert A. Convissar, New York, NY

"It has definitely increased the efficiency of our periodontal therapy program.  The purchase was a good investment for our practice."

Dr. John E. Bauer, Mansfield, TX

"Clinical excellence is a must when it comes to cosmetic cases and soft tissue management.  The UltraSpeed CO2 laser from DEKA gives me the absolute certainty I need for predictable results, accelerated healing and patient comfort."

Dr. James C. Downs, Denver, CO

"My UltraSpeed has dramatically improved the quality of my practice. All esthetic and implant procedures are easier to do, with perfect results, and increased post-op comfort. It has created a revenue stream by enabling me to perform therapies previously avoided."

Dr. Jon M. Julian, McPherson, KS

"The DEKA laser has not only made my life a lot easier, and my work a lot more pleasant, but it MAKES ME MONEY.  This tool more than pays for itself. I've also been very pleased with DEKA's commitment to education.  Thanks to DEKA, my practice remains on the cutting edge."

Dr. Adrian Acosta, La Habra, CA

"When I first contemplated getting a CO2 laser I thought why do I need to spend the money since I have used radiosurgery successfully for many years.  Now that I have used the CO2 laser for about a year, I can honestly say I would not want to be without it.  I find it especially useful for implant procedures and when I want to do cosmetic procedures, with a minimum of post operative sensitivity"

Dr. Bruce Crispin, Tarzana, CA

"I have had my DEKA UltraSpeed CO2 laser for over two years now, and I don't know how I ever functioned without it. My CO2 laser has really made placing implants fun and easy. In the past I had to lay a flap for access, but now using the laser and punch technique, there is virtually no bleeding, and the post op pain and swelling are almost non-existent. If you do any type of veneers, you need to have this laser. Gingival re-contouring is so quick and easy, and again, the post op recovery is very quick and painless.

One of my favorite things about my CO2  laser is the ease of use.  There was no learning curve. I was doing gingival recontouring the first day I got the laser. Frenectomies only take minutes to do. I actually have to slow down when doing a frenectomy so the patient feels like he/she is getting his money's worth. My DEKA CO2 laser has helped me feel like I can offer my patients the highest quality dentistry available.  I really feel like DEKA cares about how I am taking advantage of their laser. They offer multiple great training opportunities. Chris is awesome. His enthusiasm for the laser and dentistry are infectious."

Dr. Chet L. Jenkins, Mesa, AZ

"I have had the DEKA CO2 UltraSpeed laser for 2 years now, and I no longer pack cord for crown impressions.  Also, I regularly remove fibromas, cysts, and ulcers. Frenectomies and gingivectomies are so quick and easy with it! Five or ten minutes of total chair time are all that's needed for many soft tissue procedures with the DEKA - that's it!  AND - anything you do with the DEKA laser has little or no post-operative pain. Tissue NEVER gets infected. I also use it to cut flaps when necessary, for extractions or implant surgery, and to uncover implants as well. It makes the procedure so much cleaner - virtually no bleeding and better visibility. Once you have this laser, you can't live without it!  I am confident that I practice at the highest level for my patients - thanks to my DEKA laser!"

Dr. Sarah Day - Longwood, FL

" I have owned a DEKA CO2 UltraSpeed laser since November of 2004. I find it to be an indispensable tool in my practice. Excellent dentistry can only be achieved if one has control over the soft tissue. The DEKA laser gives me that control. Healing is fast and predictable. Patients love it. DEKA has also been a fine company to do business with. Maintenance is a breeze and my entire expense over the last four years has been about $ 50.00 for new perio tips. Repair response time and customer service is also unparalled."

Dr. David A. Malone, Newtown Square, PA

"As a general dentist, with a practice that focuses on cosmetic and implant dentistry, I deal with soft tissue daily. I have tried other lasers, before my CO2 laser, but I was limited by what they could do. The DEKA UltraSpeed CO2 laser gives me total control over soft tissue, it allows me to sculpt tissue for symetric, beautiful cosmetic cases.

The DEKA CO2 laser also allows me to create a dry field for bonding and impression taking. The laser is very helpful in placing implants because it cuts full thickness flaps in a bloodless field and easily makes a hole in tissue the same dimension as the implant being placed. I have found I use the laser for almost every procedure. Healing is predictable with less stress and pain for myself and my guests. It truly is the most versatile piece of equipment I use."

Dr. Jason R. Lewis, Draper, UT

"I had no idea what was about to happen to my practice when I decided to try out "another laser". Dr. Justen spent an entire day in my office while I treated patients with the DEKA UltraSpeed CO2 laser. I was unbelievably impressed with it, not just for what it did for me during the treatments but also for what it did for every single patient during and post treatment! It was then that I realized that this isn't just "another laser" and my love for the CO2 laser began!

It is a "must" for every surgical procedure because patients experience no pain during or after the treatment. There is absolutely no bleeding, and when aesthetics are of concern (when aren't they?), tissue response is predictable! I literally use the DEKA CO2 laser every day in my General Practice and my patients are happy! The CO2 laser is making a difference for many of my patients because it is useful in a variety of treatments such as canker sore and apthous ulcer ablations, root desensitizing, frenectomies, periodontal sulcus sterilization, gingival recontouring/smile design, crown troughing, coagulation and even endodontic sterilization.

Now that I have practiced with it, I cannot imagine practicing without it. You truly cannot appreciate what this laser can do for your practice until you experience it in your office."

Dr. Michael S. Singleton, Saline, MI

"My DEKA UltraSpeed CO2 laser has become indespensable to my practice.  There is not a day that I do not use it.  It has made the implant portion of my practice explode in terms of productivity and efficiency.  The technology works!  The laser allows me to put my # 15 blade aside, and perform my dentistry and surgery with less bleeding, trauma, and inflammation.  From impression troughing, to frenectomies, to sinus lifts, the DEKA CO2 UltraSpeed laser is the workhorse" of my practice that continues to pay dividends over and over.

PS: The referrals from my patients raving about their "laser dentist" isn't too bad either!"

Dr. Anthony R. Corral, Neptune Beach, FL

"I purchased a DEKA UltraSpeed CO2 Laser in 2006, after observing its use by Dr.  James Downs at an "Over the Shoulders Cosmetic Dentistry" program at Arrowhead Dental Laboratory. Subsequently, I used the laser during a hands-on clinical program with Dr. Downs and during a demonstration day in my office.  During this demonstration day, I performed supervised procedures I would not have conceived of in my thirty-seven years of practice. Incisions, crown lengthening, sulcus sterilization and even a vestibuloplasty on a ninety-one year old gentleman were performed with ease and with amazing postoperative healing.
         I perform troughing for crown procedures, incisions, pocket sterilization following extraction and curettage. Most impressively, I've crown lengthened teeth and frenectomies following orthodontic treatment when teeth looked like "chicklets". My hygiene department uses the laser during and following scaling and root planing procedures. My patients are informed that I have this machine to assist me with their dental care. New patients have come to my practice because they associate lasers in dentistry with lasers in medical treatment as the most modern technology available.
         The opportunity to name my practice La Plaza Laser Dentistry has been a valuable marketing nitch. Recently, I hired a new hygienist, already certified in the use of lasers. She was looking for a practice that used lasers and looked nowhere else. I don't tell my patients : "I'm going to use my new expensive laser and you'll be charged x dollars". I look at it as one more instrument to facilitate my improved care and it is included in your treatment today."

Dr. Richard W. Wheeler, Evergreen, CO

"For the practitioner who continues to care about the soft tissue and is ready to become a student of laser dentistry, then the DEKA UltraSpeed CO2 laser is the right choice. DEKA's UltraSpeed CO2 laser creates a sterile, clear field for surgery while reducing the post-operative discomfort during healing."

Dr. Marie Holliday, Fort Worth, TX 

"How have I ever made it this long in dentistry without this laser?!  I did a crown on a tooth today where the decay went 5mm under the gum. Without the DEKA I would have been up to my elbows in blood and would have  had to settle for a poor impression of the tooth. NOT TODAY my friend 'cause I have a DEKA. WEE HAAA!"

Dr. Allen Sprinkle, Arlington, TX 

Our Continued Education

"The course was excellent! Dr Miglorati gave a concise overview of the why’s and how’s of using the Deka laser to treat non-surgical periodontal disease.  This is the future of Periodontics and I would recommend this course for all dentist and hygienists.”

Dr. Tracy L. Reinhart, Souderton, PA

"In many years, I have not been to a more informational and worthwhile training course.  The presentation was professional and very well done!  If there is a way to get someone excited about using the Deka laser, this course did it for me!!"

Rhonda Ruth, R.D.H., Souderton, PA

“I liked the review because the speaker went into the mechanics of the laser as well as the technique for de-epithelialization and sulcular sterilization.  Her presentation was well-organized, well-paced, and it allowed plenty of interaction with the audience.”

Stephanie Dunn, R.D.H., Souderton, PA
 
"Being a new hygienist, and never hearing about laser treatment before, I found that the Deka Laser training was very informative.  I believe this technology will be a great asset for the treatment of our many involved perio patients."

Angie Nyce, R.D.H., Souderton, PA
