Laser therapy of onychomycosis

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, 2013
SummarySince 2010 the FDA has approved laser systems as capable of producing a “temporary increase in clear nails” in patients with onychomycosis. Fungal eradication is probably mediated by heat in infrared laser systems; their efficacy has been confirmed thermographically, histologically and in electron microscopy.

Lasers in periodontal therapy

Periodontology 2000, 2014
AbstractAbout 50 years ago, lasers started to be used in periodontal treatment following evidence that wounds produced in animals healed more quickly after being irradiated with low‐intensity lasers. Increased production of growth factors, stimulated mainly by red and infrared lasers, may participate in this process by influencing the behavior of ...

Principles of Laser Therapy

2007
The theoretic principles behind the laser were developed as early as 1917 when Einstein laid the groundwork for stimulated emission in his treatise “On the Quantum Theory of Radiation.” In 1949, Meyer-Schwickerath created chorioretinal burns around retinal holes using the sun as the light source.

Laser therapy for dentinal hypersensitivity

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2021

Lasers in nonsurgical periodontal therapy

Periodontology 2000, 2004
This article reviews the current and potential applications of laser technology in nonsurgical therapy for the treatment of periodontal diseases. Based on its various characteristics, such as ablation or vaporization, hemostasis, and sterilization effect, laser treatment may serve as an adjunct or alternative to conventional, mechanical periodontal ...

Laser Therapy for Fibromyositic Rheumatisms

Journal of Clinical Laser Medicine & Surgery, 1997
The objectives of this study is to treat the cases of fibromyositic rheumatisms untreatable with other therapies. The authors chose defocalized laser beams because some experimental studies had showed their analgesic and anti-phlogistic effects on experimental phlogosis. Since 1980 non-surgical laser effects were often noncomparable because of the lack
