The applications of Nd：YAG laser and Er：YAG laser in endodontics
Journal Title: 口腔疾病防治 - Year 2019, Vol 27, Issue 4
Abstract
With the gradual maturity of laser technology, it has become widely considered a new method for disease treatment. Nd：YAG laser and Er：YAG laser are two representative solid-state lasers. These lasers are easy to use, comfortable and safe, and thus, they have recently become a research hotspot in dental treatment. Nd：YAG laser and Er：YAG laser have been used for the treatment of dentin hypersensitivity and dental caries, root canal therapy, pulp preservation and apical surgery. They are effective adjuvant methods for the treatment of dental pulp diseases and provide new avenues for clinical treatment. In this paper, the application of Nd：YAG laser and Er：YAG laser in the treatment of dental pulp disease is described to provide a reference for clinical treatment options.
