Abstract
Lasers are used in implant and periodontal field practices. Laser has various periodontal applications including calculus removal, decontamination of root and implant surfaces and bio stimulation, incision and ablation, osseous surgery, excision of the soft tissue, and bacterial reduction. There is a strong evidence that laser is used for surgical and nonsurgical periodontal therapies including root bio modification, bacterial decline and decontamination of infected implant surface, and removal of the pocket epithelium.Waterlase® and Periowave™ systems are recent devices that have further revolutionized the laser technology for its favorable clinical applications; however, the procedural cost with the laser device constitutes an obstacle for its routine application.

LASER, an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Raditaion, was first developed by Maiman,(1) a scientist with the Hughes Aircraft Corporation, using ruby crystal that emits a coherent radiant light when stimulated by energy based on theory originally postulated by Albert Einstein
