Harnessing Cutting-Edge Laser Technology for Minimally Invasive Dental Therapies

Dr. Mehrdad Favagehi, Dr. Lourdes Ann Christopher and Dr. Homa Zadeh

$1995

Course Description

In today’s dental landscape, the demand for minimally invasive treatment options is paramount, both from discerning patients and forward-thinking clinicians. This dynamic course is designed to offer an evidence-based comprehensive exploration of the array of laser protocols available across different wavelengths. Delving into the intricacies of Diode, CO2, ND:YAG, Er:YAG and Er,Cr:YSGG lasers, participants will gain a nuanced understanding of their applications and potential impact on clinical practice. By leveraging cutting-edge minimally invasive alternative technology to enhance clinical outcomes and elevate patient satisfaction, clinical practices can flourish economically.

Through a judicious blend of scientific evidence and case presentations, attendees will discern which laser modalities best align with their practice needs. From nonsurgical interventions targeting periodontal pocket reduction, regeneration and peri-implantitis treatment to surgical applications encompassing minimally invasive flapless crown lengthening, periodontal plastic surgery, oral surgery and oral medicine, this course provides an all-encompassing overview of laser technologies most relevant to contemporary clinical practice. Moreover, participants will be immersed in the cutting-edge realm of biologics integration in laser therapy and the innovative applications of surgical lasers in implant surgery, including VISTA technique.

Educational Objectives

Upon successful completion of the course, participants will be able to:

  1. Gain fundamental knowledge about the diverse landscape of surgical and non-surgical laser applications of lasers across periodontology, implant surgery and oral medicine.
  2. Equip attendees with a comprehensive understanding of the scientific evidence supporting various laser protocols, discerning their strengths and limitations.
  3. Empower participants to seamlessly integrate surgical lasers into periodontal plastic surgery, minimally invasive flapless crown lengthening procedures and the management of the muco-gingival complex in implant surgery, peri-implantitis therapy, fostering enhanced patient care and clinical outcomes.
