This half day program is intended as an introductory course into the use of the Diode laser as an adjunctive instrument for the General Practitioner or Periodontal Specialist. Everyday procedures such as tissue troughing for impressions, gingivoplasty, and pontic preparation can be more easily accomplished. Minor oral surgical procedures are simplified and bloodless when the Diode Laser is used instead of conventional methods. Diode lasers enhance periodontal results by more effectively reducing bacteria and biofilm. All tissues can heal faster when exposed to the biostimulatory effects of Diode lasers. Case studies and microscopic videography will be an integral part of the presentation.
Topics Covered:
• Elimination of the retraction cord
• Periodontal plastic surgery: bloodless
• Laser surgery made easy for patients and dentists
• Laser debridement of periodontal pockets
• What they never taught you in dental school
Recommended for.... Dentists and Hygienists.
