Abstract

Based on Albert Einstein’s theory of spontaneous and stimulated emission of radiation, Maiman developed the first LASER protype in 1960. Since then, LASERs have been widely used in medicine and surgery. LASERs designed for surgery deliver concentrated and controllable energy to tissue. Typically, LASERs are named according to the active element(s) that is induced to undergo the stimulated quantum transitions which, in turn, create the energy beam. Thus, LASERs commonly used in dentistry consist of a variety of wavelengths delivered as either a continuous, pulsed (gated), or running pulse waverform. Wavelength affects both the clinical application and design of the LASER. The wavelength of LASERs used in medicine and dentistry generally range form 193 n.m to 10600 n.m, representing a broad spectrum. The LASERs most commonly used in dentistry are Co2, Nd: YAG, HO: YAG, Er: YAG, Er, Cr: YSGG, Nd: YAP, GaAs (diode), and argon. Clinical application of LASERs includes: intra-oral soft tissue procedures, such as frenectomy, gingivectomy and gingivoplasty, removal of granulation tissue, second stage exposure of dental IMPLANTs, lesion ablation, incisional and excisional biopsies of both benign and malignant lesions, irradiation of aphtuous ulcers, coagulation of free gingival graft donor sites, and gingival depigmentation, and also hard tissue procedures such as scaling of root surfaces, crown lengthening, osteoplasty and ostectomy. The purpose of this article is to provide information about the current and potentinal application of LASER technology to periodontal practice.
