laser technology has been recently introduced into the dental field with the idea to replace drilling. having a less painful first dental experience by the use of modern instruments like laser can be an efficient preventive and therapeutic strategy in pediatric dentistry. pedodontists need to learn the new less invasive technologies and adopt them in their routine practice. this study aimed to ...

introduction: laser dentistry is a one of the upcoming advanced treatment modality for oral mucosal lesions. diode laser is a soft tissue laser that has found much acceptance in all branches of dentistry. available compact size and feasibility has render diode laser an enhanced tool for today’s clinical practice. the aim of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of diode laser for t...

Due to sensitive and important applications of free-electron laser in industry and medicine, improvement of the power and efficiency of laser has always been emphasized. Therefore, understanding the created field and examining the properties of the field in waveguides with different shapes and studying the sustainability of electrons movement are particularly important. In this study, the beh...

laser-tissue interaction is of great interest due to its significant application in biomedical optics in both diagnostic and treatment purposes. major aspects of the laser-tissue interaction which has to be considered in biomedical studies are the thermal properties of the tissue and the thermal changes caused by the interaction of light and tissue. in this review paper the effects of light on ...
