This video demonstrates a technique I call the "Can Opener" for the removal of visible carious lesions; it saves time over ablating an entire plate of undermined enamel, and I have used it to remove entire occlusal tables to access caries visible through the enamel.
Every foot traveled is no more; every foot ahead does not exist. There is only now; these moments no longer exist except in this video. They will never happen the same way again.
This video illustrates the treatment of an early stage HSV lesion of the lower lip with the PerioLase NdYAG laser. This treatment is performed without anesthesia and halts the progress of the lesion without topical or systemic medications and provides immediate relief of the pain associated with these lesions.
This video demonstrates a non-invasive technique for the removal of hamangiomas from the oral cavity; the venous pools are coagulated using a long pulse width and; these coagulated areas are then resorbed by the body.
This video shows the use of the VersaWave Er:YAG laser being used to assist in the disinfection of the root canal complex of a lower molar. The laser helps remove the smear layer from the debrided root canal and enhances visualization of tissue remnants and is an adjunct to conventional chemical and acoustic disinfection.
This video shows the use of an 810 nm diode laser to perform an incision and drainage of a mandibular abcess. A modification fo Dr. Michael Swick's "High Fluence" technique was employed.
This video shows the repair of a class II molar furcation using the PerioLase LANAP protocol patented by Millennium Dental Technologies. The repair is accomplished without traditional incisions, surgical approach, grafting material, or suturing.
This video demonstrates the removal of a fibroma from a patient's lip using the VersaWave Er:YAG erbium laser. Surgical precision, minimal bleeding and excellent healing are demonstrated
This video demonstrates a lingual frenectomy performed with the PerioLasefree-runnin g pulsed Nd:YAG laser. The procedure is performed with local anesthesia; note the bloodless field and lack of need for sutures.
Video demonstrates clinical procedure for using the Hoya ConBio Er:YAG laser for the quick and atraumatic removal of a porcelain veneer by selective ablation of the cement layer
This video demonstrates extreme caries removal, without anesthesia, using the VersaWave Er:YAG laser and the "can-opener" caries excavation technique developed for laser tooth preparation
This video shows details of how to remove the stock subthrottle plates, with attention on how to handle the small screws without stripping them. Stock plates are replaced with performance items from Ivan's Performance Products, www.IvansPerformance Products.com
This is an example showing a large class II preparation with a VersaWave Erbium laser using the "Hyperfluence" settings. The treatment is accomplished withoug anesthesia and the patient has returned for two similar procedures.
This video shows a very simple application of an 810nm diode laser for gingival troughing. Laser output is 0.5watt; note the melting effect and lack of charring to the tissues
