FOOTHILL RANCH, Calif.,
March 30, 2021 /PRNewswire/
-- BIOLASE, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIOL), the global leader in dental
lasers, today announced a pilot program with Einstein Healthcare
Network's residency in endodontics to train endodontic residents in
the use of Waterlase dental lasers. The goal of the program is to
offer residents hands-on experience with dental lasers that are
already in use across the industry, allowing residents to
immediately implement their training when joining a future
practice.
"BIOLASE has a deep commitment to the endodontic specialty,"
said John Beaver, President and CEO
of BIOLASE. "It is important for us to live out our mission of
advancing dentistry by empowering the next generation of
endodontists from Einstein. We are honored to be part of not only
the residents' future careers by arming them with innovative
technologies, but also the future relationships they will build
with their patients by offering a less invasive and more positive
experience."
Einstein Healthcare Network's residency in endodontics is one of
the first hospital-based endodontic programs approved by the
American Dental Association. The residency is a 24-month program
that admits two residents each year, preparing graduates to
practice, teach and conduct independent research.
"We are committed to actively seeking out ways to help our
residents feel fully equipped to enter into endodontic practice
after leaving our program," said Frederic
Barnett, DMD, Chairman of the Department of Dental Medicine,
and Chair and Program Director of Postdoctoral Endodontics at
Albert Einstein Medical Center in Philadelphia. "Partnering with BIOLASE to
integrate laser assisted endodontic training early on in our
residents' careers allows us to tighten the learning curve, which
can positively impact a practice's bottom line and ultimately
provide a better patient experience overall."
The Waterlase dental laser offers various benefits for
endodontists, from faster procedures to new treatment options.
Educating endodontists about the benefits of dental lasers is part
of BIOLASE's continued effort to help improve patient experiences
and outcomes. This announcement comes on the heels of the recently
developed Waterlase Endo Academy, open to all Waterlase
endodontists. Learn more about the benefits of laser dentistry in
