Laser treatment of tissue is likely to be more effective than conventional treatment if a suitable wavelength for the treatment is chosen. However, it is not easy to confirm the effects because a laser's effects are fine and not easy to evaluate, so some innovation is necessary.
Additionally, if we compare laser treatment with the conventional method, we can confirm the features and problems of the conventional method, which may result in ideas for overcoming the problems.
This laser study enabled us to not only identify the effects of the laser, but also to clarify the problems of conventional methods, thus yielding valuable data as evidence. Synergistic effects may also have a big impact for dental evolution.
When deciding on treatment options, it is more important for patients to be able to see, compare and understand data rather than to receive merely an oral explanation. This will strengthen the relationship between doctor and patient.
After over 10 years of basic study on how the clinical application of Er:YAG laser affects hard tissues, we have obtained interesting results on tooth vibration and the characteristics of the surface after Er:YAG laser ablation.
This paper outlines the data and possibilities Er:YAG laser for dental support of children and patients with developmental disorders, and shows how the laser can create a better future for pediatric dental support.
