Er: YAG Laser in Handpiece

The LiteTouch™ Er:YAG  Dental Laser is the preferred treatment for peri-implantitis. The LiteTouch™ Laser effectively removes granulation tissue and disinfects the implant surface, soft tissue, and bone. One of the key benefits of LiteTouch™ is its versatility: it can work on all types of tissue without harming the implant surface and surrounding areas, thereby preserving osseointegration. Also, the laser can reach even the most challenging areas of the implant, including between the grooves and threads, enhancing both disinfection and overall treatment outcomes.

Additionally, the LiteTouch™ allows for precise, non-traumatic bone preparation, clear osteotomy free of smear layer and debris for the insertion of mini implants and cortical bone implant anchorage. The implant tip can function as a pilot burr to initiate the implant bedding procedure, providing a vibration-free and more comfortable experience for the patient.

Furthermore, irradiating the bone implant site before implant placement stimulates osseointegration, even during immediate implantation after tooth extraction. The biostimulation characteristics of LiteTouch™ enhance bone-implant contact and encourage tissue regeneration post-implantation.

Implant exposure can also be performed with the LiteTouch™ Er:YAG Dental Laser, which biostimulates the tissue to promote quick healing, most of the time without the need for anesthesia.
