Background and Objective: The recently introduced Er:YAG laser seems to be a promising alternative in periodontal treatment due to its thermo-mechanical ablation mechanism. The present study attempted to compare the effects of an Er:YAG laser on periodontally involved root surfaces at different powe

Platelet aggregation may be an important factor in the feasibility of transcatheter laser angioplasty. The in vitro effects of increasing doses of CO, laser irradiation on platelet number, function, and surface ultrastructure were examined. Results indicated a progressive doseresponse reduction of b
## Abstract ## Background and Objectives The aim of the present histologic study was to compare the in vivo and in vitro effects of an erbium: yttrium, aluminum, and garnet (Er:YAG) laser (ERL), combined with a fluorescent calculus detection system, a diode laser (DL) and scaling and root planing
