Diode Lasers
in Dentistry

One Day Conference

A diode laser is an effective adjunct to oral soft tissue surgery, due to incisional haemostasis, and effective tissue vaporisation. Furthermore, it can be used to kill pathogens and is of use in periodontalΒ  and endodontic decontamination.

Laser therapy is a very useful adjunct to the management of pain, inflammation and infection, and can be used to improve the quality of tissues repair and regeneration. Referred to as photobiomodulation (PMB) – with a little training, this treatment is a fairly short learning curve to adding indispensable daily aid to patient care in any clinical practice.

The diode laser is a useful soft tissue laser as well as an instrument to deliver photobiomodulation and adjunct to tooth whitening. A one-day inclusive course, led by Steven consists of combined didactic and practical elements. The slide presentations are supported by an extensive course manual. Practical sessions allow the demonstration and practice of chosen techniques using the diode laser on
animal oral tissue.

Courses are scheduled for weekend attendance to maximise attendance opportunity. The course is ideal for those new laser users as well as providing an opportunity for complete novices to establish a grounding in diode laser technology and application. The diode laser training day course is open to all members of the dental team.
