Benefits for clinical use
|
- Easy to resection gums even in rear molar regions
- No anesthesia required for many cases
- Less bleeding after resection
|
- Lips and buccal mucosa are extremely soft and spongy and are easier to cut with a laser, which doesn’t need pressure, than a scalpel.
- Since the entire cyst can be removed as a single piece, there is less chance of reoccurrence.
- Since there is less heat damage than with other lasers, healing progresses faster.
|
- The tip can get into every corner of the socket and very little granulation tissue will remain.
- There is very little heating so the bone will not be damaged.
- Since curettage and disinfection is performed simultaneously, the treatment is done more quickly.
|
- Laser can be safely used on the implant
- Heat will not penetrate and damage the bone
- Gums can be shaped three dimensionally
|
- Treatment is completed very quickly
- Easily performed
- Less pain during and after the treatment
|
- Treatment is completed very quickly
- Easily performed
- Less pain during and after the treatment
|
- Almost no bleeding
- No post-treatment pain. Brushing does less harm
- Easy to control depth of treatment
|
- Minimal or no post-operative pain
- Fast recovery due to minimal or no tissue damage
- Easy to check the progress of metal removal during treatment
|
| Key points of usage |
- You cannot cut deeply in a single stroke so hold the tip at an angle and make the cut with several strokes.
- Do not press on the tip too hard since the tooth is under the gum.
- If the pocket goes below the edge of the bone, use anesthetic to perform curettage.
- Use tweezers to apply some tension on the tissue to make it easier to cut.
|
- Anesthetize the area around the cyst and determine its exact size.
- Hold the cyst firmly with tweezers and pull on it as you cut it out.
- Move the tweezers from side to side to make it easier to see the interface tissue.
- Cut slowly; do not hurry until you can see the whole cyst.
- Bleeding can usually be stopped by simply applying pressure.
|
- Move the tip a little at a time
- If necessary, use a curette too.
- Check the locations of the maxillary sinus and mandibular canal with an X-ray first. Do not use the laser if these are too close to the socket.
- Check for bleeding and apply pressure to stop it.
|
- Vaporize the surface gradually to shape the gum three dimensionally
- Use the C600F or C800F tip and gradually vaporize the tissue by repeated application
- Use a stent to fix the shape of the gums
- Use the S600T tip to cut the gums
- The use a C600F tip to finish the detailed shaping
|
- Start at a distance and slowly move closer
- The surface is quite wet so lightly blow it with air to dry it
- Control the laser depending on size and depth
- Irradiate lightly until the area turns white
- There could be some post-treatment pain if irradiation lasts a long time

|
- Best to use a topical anesthetic
- Control the output power depending on the thickness of the bums and the discomfort the patient feels
- Change the tip angle if the patient experiences pain
- After irradiation, check the area and re-irradiate any black spots left
- There is usually no post-treatment pain
