Laser Endo

Generally, using the laser to complete an EndoLase procedure provides very conservative treatment of the anatomy of the inside of the tooth.

The existing anatomy can easily be followed, and there is no need to enlarge the canal any more than necessary.

Result:

ErCr:YSGG laser appears to be capable of root canal access, cleaning and shaping, endodontic surgery, and effective in the elimination of microorganisms.
