Course Overview

Achieve the pink aesthetic with laser periodontal surgery for a minimally invasive and predictably innovative approach!

Patients are now more aware of their oral health, and they focus not only on white aesthetics, but also on pink and healthy soft and periodontal tissues.

With laser periodontal surgery, you will master the art of predictable and painless periodontal treatment, including:

  • Treatment of periodontal tissue diseases and pigmentation
  • Protcols of performing laser frenectomy, gingivectomy and gingivoplasty
  • Protocols of laser-tissue interaction in oral surgery
  • Tissue regeneration techniques with laser therapy.

  • Most used laser types in dentistry
  • Characteristics of laser light: monochromatic, directional, coherent.
  • Identify and differentiate between different laser wavelengths and their corresponding tissue interactions
  • Mechanisms of laser energy absorption by different target tissues: enamel, dentin, soft tissues.
  • The effects of laser parameters, such as power, pulse duration, and frequency, on tissue interaction and treatment outcomes
  • Analyze the effects of laser energy on different types of tissues: ablation, coagulation, and biostimulation
  • The concept of selective photothermolysis and its relevance to laser-based dental treatments
