Opis

Laser use in dentistry has centered on the possibility to encourage patient uptake through the avoidance of pre and post-operative pain and discomfort. The wide array of uses of lasers in the specialty of Oral Medicine and Radiology has been previously described but still is in its primitive and limited stage and needs extensive elaboration. Lasers have been primarily recommended in the literature for the treatment of benign oral lesions such as fibromas, hemangiomas, and papillomas in the treatment of gingival hyperplasias, aphthous ulcers, mucosal frenula and tongue ties (ankyloglossia).It has also been postulated as an adjunct for the treatment of potentially malignant conditions such as Oral leukoplakias, erythroplakia, lichen planus, and other immunological disorders producing oral manifestations. Some reports have also been documented in the literature on the use of Lasers in the possible treatment of malignancies in early stages with excisional biopsies without risk of metastasis or local spread. Today Lasers can be used as a Cutting edge' or a Therapeutic agent'.
