Lasers in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Bys: Singh, Vikas, Tiwari, Ruchika, Pamnani, Samiksha

Lasers have emerged as a valuable tool in oral and maxillofacial surgery, offering superior precision, reduced bleeding, minimal postoperative discomfort, and faster healing compared to conventional methods. This book provides an in-depth overview of the principles of laser physics, mechanisms of tissue interaction, and safety considerations essential for clinical practice. It highlights the role of various laser systems-CO₂, diode, Nd: YAG, and Er: YAG-in a wide range of applications including oral soft tissue surgery, periodontal therapy, implantology, pathology management, and esthetic procedures. The text also explores recent advances such as photobiomodulation, laser-assisted bone regeneration, and integration with digital technologies, underscoring their significance in minimally invasive surgical approaches. Emphasis is placed on evidence-based outcomes, clinical protocols, and practical guidelines to enhance treatment predictability. Serving as a comprehensive reference, the book is designed for oral and maxillofacial surgeons, dentists, postgraduate trainees, and researchers seeking to expand their knowledge and skills in the evolving field of laser-assisted surgery.
