Effect of Er:YAG Laser Irradiation on the Flexural Fatigue Strength of a 4YSZ Ceramic

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the effect of Er:YAG laser surface treatment on the flexural fatigue strength of 4YSZ ceramics, with or without resin cement application. Disk‐shaped zirconia ceramic specimens (Ø = 15 mm, thickness = 1.2 mm of IPS e.max ZirCAD MT BL) were prepared and randomly assigned to 10 groups based on two factors: “surface ...

Clinical applcation of water laser (Er,Cr:YSGG)

open access: yesThe Journal of The Korean Dental Association, 2018
Laser means "Light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation". Laser have unique characteristics according to wavelength. Wavelenth of Waterlase is 2780nm and it can be absorbed to water and hydroxyapatite. When laser is applied to some material, its temperature goes up due to laser's energy. But in dental treatment high temperature is not good

Laser Versus Cold Steel Dissection Tonsillectomy in Recurrent Acute Tonsillitis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesLasers in Surgery and Medicine, Volume 57, Issue 8, Page 645-657, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Objectives Severe recurrent acute tonsillitis (RAT) is commonly treated by removing the palatine tonsils, namely tonsillectomy (TE). Laser TE has been suggested as an alternative to cold steel dissection, although its efficacy and safety for the surgical treatment of RAT remain unclear.

Numerical Analysis of Laser Thermal Ablation for Gingival and Peri‐Implant Inflammation Using Various Laser Irradiation Angles

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 41, Issue 9, September 2025.
In this study, the therapeutic effect of photothermal therapy was analyzed through numerical analysis. The Arrhenius damage integral was used to quantitatively verify the therapeutic effects. An analysis of the results confirmed that the Arrhenius thermal damage ratio and normal tissue Arrhenius thermal damage ratio decreased as the laser irradiation ...
