Experience in using ND: yagt laser for mandibular labial frenectomy

ABSTRACT

The surgical ND YAG Sunrise 800 laser has the ability to vaporize soft tissue of frenum with high attachment with little bleeding, pain, swelling. The laser surgeries were evaluated in three reported cases of Saudi subjects with different ages. Surgeries were performed with no bleeding or infection. Vestibular width was also increased after 3 weeks of healing period. ND YAG laser appears to have a promising future in periodontics. Precise long controlled studies were indicated
