Successful Use of the Er,Cr:YSGG Laser for Gingival Depigmentation. [PDF]
The color of the gingiva is determined by the degree of vascularization, epithelial thickness, and the number of melanin pigments within the epithelium. Melanin pigmentation is caused by abnormal or increased deposition of melanin by active melanocytes located mainly in the basal and supra-basal cell layers of the oral epithelium.

Er,Cr:YSGG Laser Performance Improves Biological Response on Titanium Surfaces [PDF]
Porphyromonas gingivalis infection is one of the causes of implant failures, which can lead to peri-implantitis. Implant surface roughness is reportedly related strongly to P. gingivalis adhesion, which can lead to peri-implantitis and, later, cell adhesion.

Soft Tissue Applications of Er,Cr:YSGG Laser in Pediatric Dentistry
ABSTRACTSoft tissue laser, such as diode and Nd:YAG lasers were initially used in soft tissue lesions because of its increased success rate. It was because of the fact that these lasers were well-absorbed by chromophores, such as hemoglobin and melanin which are found abundant in the oral mucosa. The introduction of erbium family in 1990 comprising the
