Since the late 19th century, the mechanical drill has served as the cornerstone of dentistry. However, as dentists' responsibilities continue to expand — and after decades of academic research resulting in the advancement of cost-effective, robust, and safe laser technology - a transformation in the dental-care field is arriving. There is an intersection of laser-based instrumentation for imaging, pain management, and disease prevention, where primary operational tools are transitioning the dental profession into the modern paradigm of preventative medicine.
