Hi, I’m Dr. Shauna Palmer. If you’ve ever delayed or avoided dental care because of fear—whether it’s the sound of the drill, the feeling of vibration, the anxiety around needles, or just the whole atmosphere of a dental office—I understand. You’re not alone. Many of my patients have shared their stories with me: racing hearts in the waiting room, hands gripping the chair, memories of painful past experiences that never seem to fade.For a long time, dental fear has been something people feel they just have to “push through.” But I don’t believe in forcing patients to tolerate discomfort. I believe in making dentistry gentler, easier, and more in tune with your overall well-being.That’s why I’m so excited to offer a new solution that is transforming the way we care for your teeth: the Solea® Dental Laser.
The Solea laser is a powerful, FDA-approved dental tool that replaces the traditional dental drill for most procedures—and often removes the need for needles too. It’s fast, precise, and virtually silent. That means no more high-pitched whirring sounds, no pressure, no uncomfortable vibrations. In many cases, patients don’t even need freezing because the laser is so gentle.Imagine walking into a dental appointment, having your cavity treated, and walking out without numb lips. No injections. No pain. Just a sense of ease and relief.This isn’t science fiction. This is what Solea has brought to my practice—and to patients just like you.
At Health & Beauty Dentistry, I take a whole-body approach to oral health. That means I’m always looking for ways to support not just your teeth and gums, but your comfort, your mindset, and your overall health.
Traditional dentistry can sometimes feel invasive or disconnected from the patient’s experience. With Solea, everything changes. The laser lets me treat cavities, perform soft tissue procedures, and even help manage sleep and airway issues—all with a level of precision and gentleness that supports healing, not just treatment.This technology fits beautifully with my philosophy: healing should feel respectful, empowering, and as non-invasive as possible.
When I decided to bring Solea into my practice, I didn’t just buy a device—I committed to a journey. I’ve been taking part in specific, ongoing Solea training to ensure that I can provide the highest quality care using this technology. And I’m not stopping there.As I continue this training, I’ll be able to expand the range of services I can offer with Solea, including more advanced soft tissue work, airway therapies, and pain-free procedures that reduce recovery time. This is not just a new tool—it’s a new standard I’m bringing to Health & Beauty Dentistry here in Kelowna.
Living in fear of the dentist can quietly affect your life. You might put off the care you need. Small problems grow into bigger ones. You worry about the cost, the pain, or the embarrassment. And the more you delay, the harder it becomes to take that first step.I’ve seen what happens when people stay in that space for too long—and I’ve seen the incredible change when they find out that dentistry doesn’t have to feel that way anymore.With Solea, many of my patients say, “That was it?” They’re amazed at how easy it feels. And once the fear is lifted, everything else becomes easier—smiles return, health improves, and confidence builds.
I want that for you, too.
If you’ve been putting off dental care because of fear, please know that I see you, and I’ve designed my practice with you in mind. The Solea laser is just one part of a greater promise I’ve made to treat you with kindness, respect, and compassion.I would love to help you experience what dental care can feel like when it’s grounded in gentleness and healing—not fear and stress.
You don’t have to “tough it out.”
You don’t have to avoid the dentist.
And you don’t have to do it alone.
Come in. Let’s talk. No pressure. Just a conversation about how things could be different—with Solea, and with care that puts you first.Dr. Shauna Palmer
