📝Abstract

Lasers, relatively a new treatment modality applicable in all specialties of dentistry has evolved rapidly in the last 2 decades, promising predictable outcomes for the patient and stress free dentistry for the consulting doctor. Lasers broadly classied as soft and hard tissue lasers are extremely safe and comfortable to the patients and are precise and effective to perform treatment in various elds of dentistry. In today's scenario incorporating lasers into dental practice has involved state of art technology in almost 5-10% of the clinical setup.
