Laser Therapy for Infected Sites and Immediate Dental Implants in the Esthetic Zone: A Case Report and Review of Literature
2020
Placement of postextraction dental implants has become a common practice. Here, we reviewed current literature, along with clinical procedures, outcomes, and incidence of complications, associated with immediate implants in infected postextraction sites. The YSGG (yttrium, scandium, gallium, and garnet) laser can significantly reduce the bacterial concentration after extracting a compromised tooth. We treated a 40-year-old woman with a compromised tooth in the esthetic zone, presenting clinical and radiological signs of infection, particularly a periapical periodontitis. The tooth was extracted after administering local anesthesia using Optocain® (mepivacaine and adrenalin 1 : 100,000), fol…
Effect of Laser Radiation on Infected Sites for the Immediate Placement of Dental Implants.
2020
Objective: The study aims to evaluate the feasibility of erbium-chromium: yttrium-scandium-gallium-garnet (ErCr:YSGG 2780 nm) laser irradiation on infected and/or inflamed post-extraction sites for...
