reduces bacterial levels and postoperative pain,
it is an effective tool for increasing the efficiency,
specificity, ease and comfort of dental treatment.
Oral hard and soft tissues have a specific affinity for
absorbing laser energy with a certain wavelength.
A dental laser wavelength is the decisive factor for
the level at which the laser energy is absorbed by
the target tissue. The laser selection depends on the
target tissue that the practitioner wants to treat.
The energy radiated by the laser is basically a single
color light (monochrome) and therefore a single
wavelength. Currently, the practitioner has the
opportunity to choose from a series of lasers, one of                 Dental diode laser - SiroLaser Blue Dentsply Sirona
