POSTER

The document discusses the benefits of using soft tissue lasers in dentistry. Some key benefits include providing a dry surgical field for better visualization, sterilizing tissue surfaces to reduce bacteria, decreasing swelling, edema and scarring, and reducing operating time. Lasers can be used for procedures like gingival retraction for impressions, soft tissue curettage and periapical surgery, implant exposure, removal of granulation tissue, incisions and draining abscesses, pulp capping, pulpotomy and pulpectomy, and exposing teeth to aid in eruption.
