Abstract: Periodontal disorders such as disorders associated with a dental implant are treated. An average power for a laser is selected via a user interface on a tablet, along with a set of permissible laser parameters provided in response to the selected average power. A gingival trough or flap is created around the implant with the laser. Infected tissue is selectively ablated or denatured via photothermolysis, and a pocket is lased around the affected implant. Marginal tissues are compressed against the implant.

Abstract: Periodontal disorders such as disorders associated with a dental implant are treated with a laser where an average laser power along with other laser parameters provide particular settings for the treatment, the treatment including one or more of creating a gingival trough or flap around the implant, ablating or denaturing infected tissue via photothermolysis, lasing a pocket around the affected implant, and compressing marginal tissues against the implant.

Abstract: A laser and a minimally invasive dental surgical procedure using the laser to stimulate periodontal tissue formation.

Abstract: There is a need for a minimally invasive surgical treatment method for periodontitis for the removal of deep pockets, elimination of disease, creation of reattachment of the gingiva to the tooth surface and true regeneration of the attachment apparatus (new cementum, new periodontal ligament, and new alveolar bone) on a previously diseased root surface. The PerioLase® MVP-7™ including eGUI or another device capable of laser dosimetry, such as an original MVP-7™ type laser without the eGUI, achieves this with the LANAP protocol (laser-assisted new attachment procedure) and the LENAP protocol (laser excisional new attachment procedure).

Abstract: A diode laser system having high-power diode(s) said high-power diode(s) producing laser outputs in a range of 0.1 to 25 Watts of power using optimum wavelengths via a single optical delivery fiber.

Abstract: The BLAST Protocol is a tissue-sparing, tissue-integration, dental implant preparation, placement and maintenance protocol including use of a laser such as a free-running pulsed laser to irradiate the implant site before implant placement, irradiate the implant or implant fixture before implant placement, and irradiate the surgical site once the implant is placed.

Abstract: A laser-assisted ridge preservation method is performed using a free-running (FR) pulsed neodymium yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser device. The method includes one or more of photothermally denaturing and vaporizing encapsulated granulomatous tissues with the laser device on all sides of a socket of an extracted tooth, and irradiating the socket with the laser device to form a thrombus. A bone graft material may be placed into the thrombus.

Abstract: A method for removing deep gingival pockets provides for excise of disease while providing for reconnection of the tissue-tooth connection. Steps in the process include creating a gingival trough in the pocket with a contact laser fiber, excising the pocket epithelium while selectively removing sulcular and pocket epithelium and granulation tissue fully around the targeted tooth to the full depth without breaking through the mucogingival junction, scaling the root surfaces to the full depth ultrasonically, lasing the pocket to remove granulation tissue and to disinfect the tissue, assist in hemostatis, cauterize free nerve endings, seal lymphatics, prepare the tissue for welding and desensitize the tooth, and compressing the tissue against the tooth until adhesion is achieved.
