The Science of Waterlase Tooth enamel naturally contains up to 5% water; dentin and bone up to 25%Years of research led to discovery of a water-energizing 2,780 nm YSGG laser and an air & water handpiece - both patented by Biolase - that combine to symbiotically excite water molecules from the handpiece spray as well as inside the target tissue, resulting in a biological, effective micro-ablation of tooth structureThe atomized spray of water and air from our proprietary handpiece continually re-hydrates the tooth, preventing heat and pain - the main drawback of other lasers such as Nd:YAG and CO2 3/16/2011 PAGE 12


 

The Waterlase Solution Patented Atomizing Water/Air Spray Biological Tissue Removal Biolase Patented 2,780 nm YSGG Laser Energy Highly Energized Water Waterlase YSGG Technology Conventional Dental Lasers Unique, powerful interaction of our patented YSGG laser wavelength and proprietary water/air sprayCuts, etches or shapes target tissues without heatAlso highly effective for gums, skin, bone - better than the scalpel! Other laser wavelengths are not effective at using water to cut, so must use pain-inducing heat to vaporize or burn away tissue Other lasers used for soft-tissue are NOT practical for teeth and bone, and so lack FDA clearance for hard tissue 3/16/2011 PAGE 13

A Great and Vast Market Opportunity According to the ADA...Nearly one-quarter of all Americans avoid dentists becausethey are afraid of dental drills and syringes160,000 dentists for 300 million Americans75 million Americans are avoiding dental care because of fear = 470 patients per dentist!Average annual expenditure per dental patient per year is approximately $1,000, so approximately $470,000 of potential revenue per dentist is being lost annuallyIf every practice that adopts Waterlase Technology just realized 50% of this potential revenue they could add $235,000 to their gross revenue by just managing fearful patients 3/16/2011 PAGE 25 How BIOLASE Waterlase Technology can increase by 33% patient in-flow to a dental practice
