Closed-flap laser-assisted esthetic dentistry using Er:YSGG technology.
Use of a hard-/soft-tissue laser is a wonderful adjunctive tool for esthetic and restorative dentistry. The cases described here demonstrate some of the many ways in which this laser technology allows clinicians to make significant soft- and hard-tissue changes. These changes not only improve the final esthetic outcome of the case but also provide the biologic functional parameters required for successful dentistry.
