Abstract

Background: Pain management is a critical aspect of dental care, impacting patient experience, treatment outcomes, and overall satisfaction. Traditional methods of analgesia, such as local anesthesia, may not always suffice, leading to discomfort and anxiety among patients. Dental lasers have emerged as innovative tools for pain control, offering precise, minimally invasive, and efficient analgesic mechanisms across various dental procedures. Purpose: This review provides a detailed examination of the current state of utilizing dental lasers for analgesia, encompassing their mechanisms of action, clinical applications, efficacy, safety considerations, and future directions. Method: By synthesizing evidence from scientific literature and clinical studies, this review aims to elucidate the potential of dental lasers in revolutionizing pain management in dentistry, ultimately enhancing patient comfort and improving treatment outcomes. Conclusion: Dental lasers show considerable promise in dentistry’s pain management domain, providing precise, minimally invasive, and effective analgesic methods during different dental procedures. As technologies advance and research progresses, dental lasers could transform pain management in dentistry, significantly improving patient comfort, satisfaction, and treatment results
