The Current Status of Laser Applications In Prosthodontics
The Current Status Of Laser Applications In Prosthodontics
Keywords:
Lasers, Removable Prosthesis, Fixed Prosthesis, Implant Dentistry, RadiationAbstract
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 laser has increased rapidly in the last couple of decades. At present, wide varieties of procedures are carried out using lasers. The aim of this review is to describe the current and emerging applications for lasers in prosthetic dentistry. Used in conjunction with or as a replacement for traditional methods, it is observed that specific laser technologies are becoming an essential component of contemporary dental practice over a decade.
