Abstract

Laser technology has emerged as a transformative tool in modern dentistry, offering precise and minimally invasive solutions across a range of procedures. The authors of this case report explore the scientific advancements and clinical implications of lasers in dentistry, emphasizing their efficacy in soft and hard tissue surgeries, endodontic treatments, and periodontal therapy. With selective tissue ablation and antimicrobial properties, lasers facilitate reduced patient discomfort, faster healing, and improved outcomes. However, successful integration requires comprehensive understanding and adherence to safety protocols. Ongoing research aims to further optimize laser technology, ensuring its continued evolution as a cornerstone of precision dental care.
