The Laser Advantage

Although root canal cleaning and disinfection is the primary focus of laser-assisted endodontics, lasers have other significant applications in endodontic therapy. The challenges presented, and complications encountered while negotiating complex and anatomically challenging root canal systems are numerous, often frustrating to overcome, time intensive, and generate significant stress to both the dentist and patient. This evidence-based webinar will highlight the role of lasers in overcoming these obstacles and will introduce new laser concepts of laser patency, laser recapitulation, laser decompression and drainage. By the end of the course, you should understand the clinical applications of lasers in endodontics; manage refractory disease; manage complex and anatomically challenging root canal systems; comprehend concepts of laser patency, laser recapitulation, and laser drainage and decompression; and overcome treatment challenges encountered during root canal therapy.
