    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_laser

    A dental laser is a type of laser designed specifically for use in oral surgery or dentistry. In the United States , the use of lasers on the gums was first approved by the Food and Drug Administration in the early 1990s, and use on hard tissue like teeth or the bone of the mandible gained approval in 1996.

    The laser diode chip removed and placed on the eye of a needle for scale A laser diode with the case cut away. The laser diode chip is the small black chip at the front; a photodiode at the back is used to control output power.

  5. Dental curing light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_curing_light

    These curing lights use one or more light-emitting diodes [LEDs] and produce blue light that cures the dental material. LEDs as light-curing sources were first suggested in the literature in 1995. [8] A short history of LED curing in dentistry was published in 2013. [9] This light uses a gallium nitride-based semiconductor for blue light ...

    The use of lasers in treating periodontal disease has been seen by some dental professionals as controversial. [6] The American Academy of Periodontology stated in 1999 that it was "not aware of any randomized blinded controlled longitudinal clinical trials, cohort or longitudinal studies, or case-controlled studies indicating that 'laser excisional new attachment procedure (or Laser ENAP)' or ...

    Diagram of a simple VCSEL structure. The vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL / ˈ v ɪ k s əl /) is a type of semiconductor laser diode with laser beam emission perpendicular from the top surface, contrary to conventional edge-emitting semiconductor lasers (also called in-plane lasers) which emit from surfaces formed by cleaving the individual chip out of a wafer.
