Laser Solutions in Dentistry: Optimizing the Use of Soft Tissue Diode Lasers and Photobiomodulation

This lecture will guide clinicians in optimizing the use of soft tissue diode lasers in everyday practice. It will cover the key differences and complementary roles of photobiomodulation (PBM) and high-power laser applications, highlighting when and how to use each modality to achieve the best clinical results. Participants will explore the biological principles behind PBM, its benefits in managing pain, inflammation, and wound healing, as well as the precision and control provided by surgical laser techniques. Clinical cases and evidence-based guidelines will illustrate how to integrate diode laser therapy into comprehensive patient care with confidence and predictability.
