Abstract
The mW level low power lasers, GaAlAs diode lasers, He-Ne laser and argon dye laser have been applied to the author’s clinical and experimental studies. As the results, the following interesting effects have been newly found in addition to previously recognized effects such as anti inflammation effect, wound healing activation effect, analgesic effect:
1) The unique effects in the diode laser: (1) Depigmentation effect on melanous nevi of a mucosa,(2) Therapeutic effect for trismus in TMJ troubles and (3) Improvement the salivation function in its restricted disease of Sjogren’s syndrome.
2) The unique effect in He-Ne laser:Therapeutic effect of the vasculargenous red colored lesions.
3) Common effect to the diode laser and He-Ne laser:Bone repaire activation effect.
4) Effect of argon dye laser:Reactive secondary dentin formation effect under the premedication of HpD. The effect under 1)∼3) have been successfully applied in the author’s clinic
