Abstract
The array of available clinical applications for laser assisted dentistry is growing rnrnrapidly, with the greater number of applications being for oral surgery.rnrn Er: YAG is a laser wavelength which is located in the infrared zone of the rnrnelectromagnetic spectrum (2940nm), is considered to be extremely safe, and is thernrn dominant wavelength in dentistry today . Er: YAG is one of the most suitablernrn wavelengths for bone applications.rnrnThe presentation will demonstrate the use of the Er:YAG laser in the world of rnrnimplantology, and the advantages vs. conventional treatment methods.rnrnMy purpose in this presentation is to put some order into the chaotic information surrounding the subject and to provide some answers to the most common and frequent questions I often meet: How far we can go with this technology? Is it just a marketing tool or proven therapy? Where is the line between reality and fantasy? Does the new technology completely replace the conventional methods and if not, at which point do we lay the laser's hand piece down and re-employ the "old" tools and conventional ways?rnThis lecture will exhibit, beyond any doubts, that Er:YAG laser is very valuable tools for implantology. and will show cases studies with 8-year follow-ups, each procedure explained in details including video exhibitions rn
