Abstract

Introduction: Er:YAG lasers generate wave length of 2940 nm which coincides with the absorptions spectrum of water. For these reasons it is possible to work with Er:YAG lasers both on soft and hard tissues with minimal thermal effects. Lasers due to their wide-spectrum of biological action and high therapeutic effectiveness are used long ago in certain specialties like oral surgery and cariesology. In orthodontic lasers are poorly known and are not routine tool despite their beneficial application abilities.
