Light Instruments Ltd. is excited to announce that the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Dental Laser,  the world`s most versatile non-fiber Er:YAG laser for soft and hard tissue dental treatments, has been approved by the  COFEPRIS – Comisión Federal para la Protección contra Riesgos Sanitarios for sale in Mexico!

The result: All four studies reported favorable results with Erbium Lasers for the conservative debonding of ceramic laminate veneers without enamel damage. The included studies evaluated dental morphology mainly through scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and light microscopy.

The conclusion: The Erbium Lasers are useful for the removal of ceramic laminate veneer without enamel damage. However, the removal is influenced by the type and thickness of ceramic and the type of cement used. It can be concluded that the application of the Erbium laser does not promote superficial changes in the dental enamel. This effect was observed in all analyses performed.

The result: After 6 months of treatment in pediatric patients, the Laser + Desensitizer (La + De) group had significantly lower mean scores (p < 0.001) in all dimensions of OHIP-14. The La + De and La groups, as well as the La + De and De groups, were different in total OHIP, functional limitation, physical disability, and psychological disability (p < 0.05). Mean values of each dimension differed significantly between group Co and the La + De group (p < 0.0001).

The conclusion: The combination therapy with the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG laser and GLUMA desensitizer had greater desensitizing effects and OHRQoL improvement for MIH pediatric patients, which provides an effective alternative treatment in the management of dentin hypersensitivity in MIH children and can reduce the negative impact on daily activities to a greater extent, thus improving the quality of life.

The result: The pocket depth decreases with 1.55mm for the control group and 1.70mm for the laser group. The attachment level gain reveals 1.09mm for hand instrumentation and 0.59mm for laser instrumentation. The bleeding on probing reduces more significantly in the laser group.

The conclusion: The LiteTouch™ Er:YAG laser instrumentation is effective in the treatment of moderate chronic periodontitis and leads to promising clinical results. LiteTouch™ instrumentation resulted in a significant reduction of pocket depth, bleeding on probing and gain of clinical attachment. The values obtained remain significantly lower one year after therapy compared to those measured in the initial clinical visit, which proves the long-term stability of the results.

The result: Diode and CO₂ lasers with both parameters used increased significantly the temperature by more than 46°C, whereas the temperature in the Er:YAG laser group was less than 30°C. There was a statistically significant difference between diode, CO₂, and Er:YAG lasers in favor of the erbium laser.

The conclusion: The LiteTouch Er:YAG laser demonstrates the best thermal properties during irradiation of the implant surface. The three preset tested – 1.5 W, 6.8 W, and 7.5 W – provide safe intervention on both the soft and bone tissues of the implant interface and on the implant itself, without causing an increase in temperature in the different substrates.

The result: Hand curets, nylon brushes, and the ultrasonic device showed limited capability to effectively remove the multispecies biofilm from the SLA surfaces as opposed to the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG which displayed a superior ability to remove the biofilm. All Er:YAG parameter combinations that were evaluated as well as the tested “tip to target” distances showed similar excellent anti-biofilm effects. Furthermore, we observed that the Er:YAG capability of biofilm removal is not only due to its light emission, but depends on its water irrigation as well.

The conclusion: In conclusion, the present finding demonstrated the possible effectiveness of the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Laser. The demonstration that all three “tip to target” distances (1 to 5 mm) were equally effective—makes it possible for the clinician to avoid the aforementioned anatomical and structural obstacles, and affect the target from several distances in an effective way.

Lecture title: D-Storm™ –  Launching a revolutionary high & low power diode laser

The result: Rotary instruments have no detrimental effects on the viability and differentiation of cells that form new tissue and ensure implant osseointegration. However, the groups treated with the Er:YAG laser (wavelength of 2940 nm) demonstrated the possibility that bone ablation and cleaning of the amorphous layer occurred without thermal side effects affecting the surrounding tissues.

The conclusion: The study demonstrated that the combination of the rotary technique and subsequent LiteTouch™ Er:YAG laser treatment of the bone using an original method is a promising prospect in implantology, as it may allow us to achieve faster and stable osseointegration of implants, leading to early functional loading.

The synergistic effect of the combination of the two methods leads to an absolutely precisely prepared implant site, which is achieved via conventional rotar

y methods, and a reduced or absent smear amorphous layer on the surface via the use of laser osteotomy only.

Świder K, Dominiak M, 2019, published this clinical case of an implant bed preparation of tooth 35 with the LiteTouch™️ laser of a 34-year-old woman.

The result: Preparing the implant bed with the LiteTouch™️ Er:YAG laser increases bone integration and the healing process due to less thermal tissue damage and precision in bone preparation. Also, because of the photoacoustic phenomena, the implantation site showed decreased bleeding compared to the conventional procedure with the bur.

The conclusion: Lasers in dentistry have many advantages for dentists and patients. Within the present study, it was concluded that LiteTouch™️ Er:YAG laser application in implant bed preparation may represent a promising alternative to conventional surgical protocols.

The result: In the coronal region, the lowest temperature changes (DT) were measured during the continuous mode, with a median temperature increase of 0.56 ± 0.67°C compared to 3.44 ± 2.22 °C using the segmented procedure. The highest temperature changes (DT) (12.14 ± 4.43 °C) were measured in the laser method without irrigation solution in the root canal.

In the middle region of the root canal, the following temperature changes (DT) were measured: 0.71 ± 0.80 °C for the continuous irrigation method; 2.98 ± 1.21°C for the segmented method; and 8.11 ± 3.12 °C for the control method without irrigation solution.

At the apical area of the root canal, the following temperature changes (DT) were measured: 1.89 ± 1.42 °C for the continuous irrigation method; 1.32 ± 0.76 °C for the segmented method; and 6.30 ± 3.39 °C for the control method without irrigation solution in the root canal.

The conclusion: The study demonstrated that the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG laser combined with the LiteTouch™ Endo tip in the root canal with irrigation, produced a minimal temperature change of 0.5–2 ^◦C. Thus, this study recommends that the laser treatment be performed with an irrigation solution to optimally clean the root canal and avoid thermal damage to the surrounding tissue.

LiteTouch™ is successful in the management of severe periodontal disease and bone infection.

Dr. Kai-Seng Tan in his article (2023) used his LiteTouch™ not only to perform the incision and to remove calculus but also to eliminate periodontopathic bacteria within the periodontal pocket and for intrabony socket debridement. The LiteTouch™ combined with the A-PRF+ accelerated the tissue regeneration, bone formation and there were no recurrent infections.

Due to the wide variety of the LiteTouch™ clinical indications, the Er:YAG laser allows the dentist to perform effectively non-surgical and surgical treatments for periodontal disease.

LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Dental Laser at the 40th CIOSP conference in Brazil!

CIOSP is one of the largest and most respected dental meetings in the world, exceeding every year in quality and public record. Look for the #1 best-selling all-tissue Er:YAG dental laser in Brazil, the LiteTouch™, at Aisle L / Avenue 10.000, Stands K121 and K123.

Study finds that the LiteTouch™ Endo Spiral tip is 99% effective for root canal disinfection.

The recent paper published by Sebbane et al., (2022) proved that the Side-Firing Spiral Endo Tip is the only tip that allowed the laser energy straight to the target walls of the root canal, ensuring the cleaning and disinfecting of the root canal system.

Moreover, the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Laser + Endo Spiral tip increased the reduction of the bacteria regardless of the type of endodontic irrigation fluids chosen.

The conclusion: LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Laser with the Endo Spiral tip presented a safe and efficient treatment for eradicating bacteria and removing the infected regions from root canals.

There is a direct correlation between the increased use of dental implants and peri-implantitis.

Peri-implantitis is an inflammatory process in tissues around dental implants, gradually leading to loss of supporting bone. The biofilm, which is predominantly made up with gram-negative bacteria and anaerobes, is highly associated with this condition.

In this in vitro study, Dr. Paweł Kubasiewicz-Ross and colleagues evaluated different methods of bacterial biofilm decontamination of dental implants with various types of surfaces.

The result: The Er: YAG laser irradiation promoted the highest implant decontamination for all different implants – machined-surface implant, SLA implant, and HA-coated implant.

Er: YAG laser irradiation was also the only approach capable to achieve up to 90% decontamination on HA-implant coated – The most difficult type of implant surface to decontaminate.

The conclusion: The LiteTouch™ Er: YAG laser was the superior method in decontaminating the different types of implant surfaces.

The result: Group E (LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Laser 500mJ x 15Hz) exhibited more pronounced and uniform etching effect compared to groups C (300mJ x 15Hz) and D (400mJ x 15Hz). Microleakage and bonding strength analyses revealed that the laser and 9.6% HF acid pretreatment groups (Group B) differed significantly from the control group (Group A) in dye penetration depth and shear strength (P < 0.05), although the LiteTouch™ Laser and acid-etching groups did not differ from each other, indicating comparable outcomes in these aspects.

The conclusion: The LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Laser demonstrated distinct etching effects on the glass–ceramic surface, enhancing the bonding properties between the glass–ceramic and dentin. Moreover, the Er:YAG Laser at 500mJ x 15Hz resulted in a surface modification effect on the glass–ceramic, which was comparable to that achieved through a 9.6% hydrofluoric acid pretreatment, which can prevent the HF’s detrimental effects on the oral mucosa and dental pulp. In the future, the effects of LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Laser pretreatment on the microleakage and bonding strength between glass–ceramic and dentin should be monitored in clinical practice.

In this article, Dr. Jan Kyrik, Jacek Matys and colleagues compared the shear bond strength of the enamel surface using the LiteTouch™ (Er:YAG laser) combined or not with the 37% orthophosphoric acid solution.

The result: The LiteTouch™ combined with 37% orthophosphoric acid obtained the highest values of shear bond strength when compared with the conventional treatment and the laser alone. A significant change in the enamel surface was noted after applying laser, reaching up to 9% of enamel thickness.

The conclusion: The use of Er:YAG laser at 100 mJ x 10 Hz (1Watt) combined with 37% orthophosphoric acid for enamel conditioning improves the adhesion of composite materials to the tooth.

The result: There was a considerable decrease of PPD CAL, BoP and plaque presence values at 1 and 3 months after therapy in both treatment groups. Site treated with Er:YAG laser demonstrated mean CAL gain od=f about 1.0mm and 0.44mm in the first and third month, respectively.

The conclusion: The LiteTouch™ Er:YAG laser-treated group demonstrated a greater reduction of inflammation in comparison with the conventional treatment of moderate chronic periodontitis with hand instruments. This allows the use of fibreless Er:YAG laser treatment as an effective nonsurgical periodontal alternative treatment of the most common periodontal disease, moderate chronic periodontitis.

A New Endo Tip for LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Dental Laser, for best results of cleaning and disinfecting of the root canal system!

Light Instruments is proud to announce the launch of a New Endo Tip for its flagship LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Dental Laser. Developed by Prof. Adam Stabholz and Light Instruments R&D team, the uniqueness of the New Endo tip is its flexible, hollow design, with circumferential spiral slits located throughout the length of the tip while the apical end of the tip is sealed. This unique design allows omnidirectional (360º) laser beam delivery throughout the tip’s length, rather than direct emission through the tip’s end, for efficient cleaning, disinfecting and removal of smear layer from the root canal system.

“I use the Er:YAG laser for peri-implant maintenance on a daily basis.”

Read Dr. Fabrice Baudot’s interview explaining why dental lasers have become an essential part of his daily practice and sheds light on the clinical benefits of combining laser-assisted surgery and ceramic implantology.

In this study, the authors from Peoples Friendship University of Russia (RUDN university) present the results on the effectiveness of the root canal disinfection using an erbium laser in combination with a 17% solution of ethylene diaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) in vitro and in clinical studies.

An experimental group of teeth was treated medically according to a standard protocol using 3% solution of sodium hypochlorite and 17% solution of EDTA followed by irradiation with erbium laser. The control group was treated similarly but without laser irradiation.

The obtained results prove that the modification of the root canal treatment by the inclusion of erbium laser irradiation is a promising direction in endodontics.

This Sapphire Tip was especially designed to deliver energy throughout its length into the tissue (like a sword).

When you are in need for cutting soft tissue with longer, finer, deep cuts – choose the Blade Tip to perform the surgery for a clean and clear cut!

Nowadays the world is going through a health emergency period, a pandemic caused by COVID-19 disease spread.

Since a proper therapy or vaccine does not exist yet, the World Health Organization (WHO) is focused on limiting the spread of the virus.

According to WHO, COVID-19 is transmitted amongst people through respiratory droplets.

Since the virus can remain in the air and on surfaces from several hours to several days, suggested guidelines have been announced, such as: observing individual hygiene; avoiding contact – social distancing; use of negative pressure ventilation in hospital sectors; wearing a face mask for protection; disinfection of frequently touched surfaces; and to reduce COVID-19 spreading through aerosol.

The guidelines for dental clinics are still unclear and are evolving, but one consideration is already clear – reducing the risk of virus and bacteria transmission between patients and staff and patient-to-patient.

In this study, the authors from Wroclaw Medical University in Poland assess the changes in temperature of pulp and enamel during laser debonding of brackets. Their findings confirm that the use of Er:YAG family lasers for orthodontic ceramic bracket debonding in an invitro study is safe and effective.  The study found that the temperature inside the tooth did not increase, and it even decreased during treatment with Er:YAG laser using water cooling, provided that appropriate proportion of water and air was used.

Light Instruments Ltd. is excited to announce that the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Dental Laser has been approved by the Pharmaceutical and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA) in Japan!

Implementation of laser-assisted protocols in treating drug-induced gingival hyperplasia provide a wide array of advantages over the standard procedures!

Prof. Tanev et al. present a case of a 57-year-old, female patient diagnosed with drug-induced gingival hyperplasia. 

The advantages of the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Dental Laser, assisting in this case, as described in the article are:

• In soft tissue surgery – Er:YAG laser provide high cutting efficacy with minimal to no thermal damage to the tissue, improved healing and better post-op comfort for the patient
• Using non-contact mode along with water cooling, improves the view field of the operator
• Gingivolpasty is performed in a non-contact, minimally invasive manner, with no thermal or mechanical trauma to the soft tissue. The achieved contour is much more delicate and provides faster healing.
• Er:YAG Lasers are the only system suitable for hard tissue preparation – due to their water molecule absorption peak
• Er:YAG-laser assisted tooth preparation is minimally invasive, non-contact process providing no smear layer on the hard tooth structure, this improving the adhesive protocol of obturation.

Treating DED in the frontal teeth with the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Dental Laser is a safe, painless and minimal-invasive treatment!

Prof. Carlo Fornaini et al., aimed to show the advantages of the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG dental laser for treating DED (Developmental Enamel Defects). In his new article “Er:YAG laser for the aesthetic treatment of developmental enamel defects in frontal teeth: a case report” a 15 YO patient with DED lesions in the upper incisors, was treated with the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG dental laser.

The patient did not feel any pain or discomfort during and after treatment, even though she was not given local anesthesia. Follow-up at 2, 6 and 12 months did not show any complications from an aesthetic or sensitive point of view. The authors concluded that the use of the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG dental laser for treating developmental enamel defects in the frontal teeth is a safe, painless and minimal-invasive treatment with proven good aesthetic results.

Prof. Roly Kornblit presents a different approach for Caries treatment in his article “The treatment approach to caries using the Er:YAG laser”. Prof. Kornblit summarizes the reasons why Caries treatment with the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Dental Laser fulfills many of the requirements of minimal-invasive surgery:

• The ability to ablate small areas of the infected layer guarantees maximum conservation of the tooth structure.
• When using the Er:YAG Dental Laser there is good visual control of the ablated area therefore it is easier to vaporize only the infected tissue and stop at the affected zone.
• As the amorphic dentine infected layer is richer in water, laser ablation of the infected layer is faster compared to ablation of the affected layer or healthy dentine.
• The antibacterial property of the Er:YAG laser, helps to decontaminate the affected layer, which retains its remineralization potential.

Prof. Kornblit demonstrates the requirements mentioned above in a case review at the end of his article.

Dr. Fabrice Baudot offers a new approach for treating periodontal pockets in his article “The Periodontal Pocket: Alternative treatment with Er:YAG LASER and PRF”. Using the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Dental Laser Dr. Baudot recommends to descend layer by layer and selectively remove the inflammatory infiltrate, via tissue micro-ablation along the internal wall of the gingival pocket. This process cleans the wound through a space of about 1mm throughout the full depth of the pocket to the bone. The LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Dental Laser is then also used to decontaminate the root surface and flush the periodontal pocket.

Dr. Baudot concludes that this alternative treatment for periodontal pockets is a result of High technology and progressed knowledge in microbiology and tissue engineering, pushing the boundaries imposed by conventional protocols.

LiteTouch™ Er:YAG dental laser is able to debond veneers while preserving the tooth structures!

Dr. Zhang et al. aimed to verify if Er:YAG laser, at low fluences, is able to debond porcelain veneers successfully, without damaging the tooth structures. 12 freshly extracted and decontaminated teeth, were bonded with porcelain veneers. One week later, the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG laser was used to debond the veneers.  Results demonstrated that veneer debonding is possible with the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG laser and SEM images confirmed that, when using low fluences, the residual tooth structure is not altered.

The authors concluded that low fluences of the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG dental laser are able to debond veneers while preserving the tooth structures!

Abstract:

Purpose: Due to the limited effectiveness of irrigation to reduce the bacterial load inside root canals, the efficacy of activated irrigation techniques was evaluated.

Results: The positive control group had significantly more bacteria than all other groups. EDTA irrigation had low efficiency. US irrigation 1 mm from the working length was significantly more effective than controls. Laser treatment to the coronal third was the most efficient.

Conclusions: Laser activated irrigation caused the greatest bacterial reductions.

Conclusion:

To this end, is the laser the best choice for the treatment of peri-implantitis? Surely, yes, it is.

The LiteTouch™ Er:YAG laser can be used for veneer or ceramic crowns de-bonding by dissolving the cement without damaging the veneer or crown or overheating the pulp.

LiteTouch™ irradiation is not absorbed by the veneer/ crown material, but is transmitted through the veneer / crown and is absorbed by organic components and H2O/OH groups of the resin cement. When enough cement is ablated through the veneer / crown, it slides off the tooth surface.

Veneer / crown removal can be done without damaging tooth structure. This procedure doesn’t require anesthetics.

Article Conclusions:

The use of laser energy can be an excellent alternative to many procedures in pediatric dentistry. In the case before us, the removal of a raised lesion and fibroma that was formed after the lower lip injury and constant irritation was demonstrated. The lesion, which had considerable dimensions, disturbed the child and interfered with his functioning, and it was necessary to remove it and receive an accurate diagnosis of its nature. The success of the treatment was expressed in the fact that the treatment was conservative, quick and one-time, without pain or fear. The child was fully cooperative and the rapid treatment and healing of the tissue ensured great satisfaction for the child and his parents.
