(LLLT)Low-level laser therapy in acclerating orthodontic tooth

图片
  Orthodontic treatment   is a way of straightening or moving teeth to improve the way they look and work. By distributing the pressure of the bite to all the teeth through orthodontic treatment, it also helps to maintain the long-term health of the teeth, gums and jaw joints. The length of treatment varies depending on the severity of the problem, with some taking a few months and others two and a half years. Most people can be cured in a year or two. It is therefore of great clinical importance to explore safe and effective adjunctive interventions to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement, achieve treatment goals in as short a time as possible and achieve a healthy, functional, stable and aesthetically pleasing bite, which is a common pursuit for orthodontists and patients alike. In recent years, low-level lasers have gradually gained the attention of   orthodontists   due to their safety and lack of side effects as well as their simplicity, convenience and comfort...

LASER ASSISTED EXCISION OF A GINGIVAL POLYP

图片
  INTRODUCTION:   Gingival polyps, are focal fibrous hyperplastic lesions, also known as, localized gingival enlargement or “epulis”. The primary reason for the occurrence of a gingival polyp or epulis is attributed to local factors such as caries, calculus and tooth malposition.  TREATMENT MODALITY:  A surgical excision can be performed using a periodontal knife/scalpel/rotary coarse diamond burs/ electrocautery etc. But these techniques are prone to side effects and complications like surgical trauma, postoperative pain, swelling, bleeding after excision and poor patient acceptance. After evolution of LASERS, these conventional techniques are replaced by LASER, owing to the various advantages associated with it, such as minimal use of anesthesia, provision of hemostasis and enabling a bloodless surgical field with a laser bandage of the wound.  Literature is replete with numerous studies1,2,3, wherein diode lasers were highly successful in the excision of loca...

ROOT CANAL DISINFECTION IN PERMANENT TOOTH USING LASER DURING ROOT CANAL PROCEDURE/ENDODONTIC TREATM

图片
  Introduction-   The main goal of endodontic treatment is the effective cleaning of the root-canal system and preventing the reinfection. Traditional endodontic techniques use mechanical instruments and chemical irrigation to shape, clean and completely decontaminate the endodontic system. The complexity of the root-canal system is very well known with added fact that most of the NiTi (Nickel-Titanium) instruments work on the center body of canal leaving behind fins, isthmus, cul-de-sacs all untouched. These left out spaces harbour tissue debris, bacteria and their by-products and this insufficient   root canal disinfection   is the main reason for endodontic failure. LASER helps to achieve this impossible task of disinfection of root canal system as a whole including the lateral and accessory canals. As back dated, Laser technology was introduced to endodontics with the goal of improving the results obtained with traditional procedures through the use of light ener...

FRENOTOMY USING DIODE LASER

图片
  Frenum is an anatomic structure formed by a fold of mucous membrane and connective tissue fibers that attach the lip and cheeks to the alveolar mucosa, the gingiva and the underlying periosteum. Placek et al. have classified frenum depending on the extension of attachment of fibers, (1) Mucosal: when the frenal fibers are attached up to mucogingival junction, (2) Gingival: when fibers are inserted within attached gingiva, (3) Papillary: when fibers are extending into interdental papilla, and (4) Papilla penetrating: when the frenal fibers cross the alveolar process and extend up to palatine papilla. Frenum with mucosal attachment is the usual and is considered to be the correct level of attachment but if the frenum that encroaches on the margin of the gingiva (Class 2 and above) may interfere with plaque removal, and the tension on the frenum may tend to open the sulcus eventually leading to gingival recession, midline diastema, root dentine hypersensitivity and unaesthetic looks...
