Laser’s applications in minimally invasive dental procedures – new trends in modern dentistry

摘要

The present paper highlights the multiple uses and advantages of dental lasers in modern dentistry. Especially developed for this medical field, dental lasers are surgical and therapeutic high technology devices, which are increasingly used in the daily dentists’ practice. The dental lasers use four classes of wavelengths which are absorbed in soft or hard tissues, thus providing precise tissue specificity. They are used at a large scale thanks to their minimally invasive particularity. In this context, the present paper presents three clinical cases in which dental lasers are applied using different laser light power, exposure time and absorption of the wavelengths in soft or hard tissues thus highlighting the benefits for every presented case.
