ROLE OF LASERS IN MUCOSAL LESIONS
Dentistry has changed tremendously over the past decade to the benefit of both the clinician and the patient. The search for new devices and technologies for dental procedures was always a challenge and in the last two decades much experience and knowledge have been gained.1New materials and technologies have improved the efficiency and predictability of dentistry for clinicians. One such technology that has become increasingly utilized in clinical dentistry is that of LASERS. The word LASER is actually an acronym that stands for “Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation”. Better understanding of tissue reaction and refining of the technique are expected to improve the scope of lasers in clinical dentistry.
