Lasers in Dentistry

A section of Dentistry Journal (ISSN 2304-6767).

Section Information

This section of the Dentistry Journal aims to rapidly publish contributions on laser technologies, applications, education, therapy, etc. Lasers have been used in dentistry since 1982 to treat a number of dental problems. Lasers were introduced into the field of dentistry as they are a precise and effective way to perform many dental procedures. Treatment with lasers overcomes some of the disadvantages of conventional dental procedures. As the applications for, and research regarding dental lasers continues to expand, more and more dentists will use the technology to provide patients with precise treatment that may minimize pain and recovery time.

We welcome papers on scientific innovations, clinical and experimental research within the scope of laser dentistry and related fields. Topics include, but are not limited to:

Lasers in periodontology
Lasers in dental implantology
Lasers for caries prevention
Lasers for caries removal and cavity preparation
Lasers and dental adhesions
Laser-supported endodontic treatments
Photobiomodulation (PBM) in dentistry
Lasers for minimal invasive dentistry
Laser-supported oral surgery
Bone surgery and osseousnecrosis
Fluorescence-supported oral cancer diagnosis and treatment
Laser fluorescence aid in the diagnosis of caries
Mechanism of laser action
