Application of a ne0dymium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd: YAG) laser was compared to conventional scalpel in dental soft tissue surgery. Two surgery sites on 29 patients were randomly selected and treated. An additional 41 patients were exclusively treated with the Nd:YAG laser. The surgical technique

β¦ Synopsis
The original techniques of soft-tissue purulent lesion treatment by means of a continuous-wave C02 laser are elaborated. The following laser treatment advantages-minimal tissue damage, prophylaxis of local dissemination of infection, heamostatic and sterilizing effects-have been proved experimentally. Laser utilization in clinical trial (360 cases) made it possible to obtain significantly improved outcomes and marked shortening of treatment.
