Abstract
Lasers were introduced into the field of clinical dentistry with the hope of overcoming some of the drawbacks posed by the conventional methods of dental procedures. Since its first experiment for dental application in the 1960s, the use of lasers has increased rapidly in the last couple of decades. At present, wide varieties of procedures are carried out using lasers. Laser dental care is possible in all of the disciplines of dentistry. The public has an expectation that their dentist should be up to date and wants the most modern, advanced care possible. The future of lasers in dentistry is promising, and new applications and procedures are being developed. Laser treatment in dentistry has replaced many traditional electrosurgical and scalpel procedures and is beginning to replace the dental handpiece. Compared with conventional techniques, laser treatment has many advantages. These advantages include reduced overall treatment time, decreased bacterial contamination & reduced swelling, scarring, and wound contraction at of the surgical site, excellent hemostasis.The aim of this review is to describe the application of lasers in dental hard tissue and soft tissue procedures.
