Lasers in Endodontics
This paper describes and discusses the use of the Nd:YAG and diode lasers in endodontics. Clinical studies clearly show advantages of laser treatments over currently-used conventional methods and techniques. The most important advantages are improved disinfection efficacy, more effective root canal cleaning, reduction of permeability, reduction of micro-leakage, and elimination of the need to u...
متن کامل[Lasers in endodontics].
Laser technology has been developed rapidly in the last decade. New lasers with a wide range of characteristics are available now which are being used in various branches of dentistry. The application of these new technologies in endodontics has always been challenging. Today more experience and knowledge in applying lasers in endodontics is available.
متن کاملLasers in Conservative Dentistry And Endodontics - A Review
The dental lasers of today have benefited from field of quantum mechanics, initially formulated during the early 1900s by Danish physicist Bohr. The first laser use in endodontics was reported by Weichman & Johnson (1971) who attempted to seal the apical foramen in vitro by means of a high power-infrared (CO2) laser. In May 1990, Myers and Myers developed the first specialized dental laser (pul...
متن کاملHigh-Power Lasers in Endodontics - Fiber Placement for Laser-Enhanced Endodontics: in the Canal or at the Orifice?
The aim of this review is to give a survey of the use of high-power lasers for root canal cleaning and disinfection. There are two approaches: the first using a fiber in a dry root canal and exposing the root canal wall to the laser light with a spiral motion, and the other using the fiber in irrigant in the root canal or at the orifice. The laser-target interaction is different: a direct expos...
متن کاملPhoto-activated disinfection of the root canal: a new role for lasers in endodontics.
Because micro-organisms play a crucial role in the development of pulpal and periapical disease, the prognosis of endodontic therapy is intimately related to the presence of bacteria within the root canal system. Micro-organisms may persist in the apical region of the root canal system despite chemomechanical preparation. The usefulness of Class IV lasers (such as Nd:YAG, diode, KTP and Er:YAG)...
