“…For 2 seconds, the surfaces were lightly dried. • Crown lengthening: Appropriate crown length is essential for better aesthetics and functional importance, and is commonly indicated for teeth with: Caries at the marginal gingiva level, 37 cuspal fracture that extends below the gingival margin, insufficient clinical crown length, to improve aesthetic value (i.e., in cosmetic use), and when placement of the finish line is difficult. Lasers are used to improve gingival contour and give precise control during surgery.…”

Several technologies have been used to overcome current challenges in dentistry throughout the last few decades. Laser technology is the most recent addition to this group of technologies. Because of its great precision, biocompatibility, and few side effects, it has had a significant impact and has so supplanted several traditional procedures. For the past two decades, lasers have been well-integrated in clinical dentistry, enabling practical choices in the management of both soft and hard tissues, with a growing usage in the field of prosthetic dentistry. One of their key advantages is that they can deliver extremely low to extremely high concentrated power at a precise location on any substrate using any method available. New approaches are provided for the development of prosthodontic treatments that demand high energy levels and careful processing, such as metals, ceramics, and resins, as well as time-consuming laboratory processes like cutting restorative materials, welding, and sintering. Lasers have a wide range of applications, and their use in the field of prosthodontics has seen them replace stainless steel scalpels with optical scalpels to a respectable extent throughout the surgical field and other traditional ways. A new technology on the horizon will address these flaws, but it will also come with its own set of hazards and restrictions. The purpose of this article is to discuss the application and uses of lasers in prosthodontics, as well as how lasers have revolutionized patient care. A future project could be the development of new intraoral laser devices.

In contemporary dental practice, patients' interests are taken into account in terms of function and appearance. The importance in everyday circumstances, current advertising, and the media in general highlight their effect on an attractive appearance. Many academics in the field of dental aesthetics have stated equivocally that when examining the impact of tooth appearance necessitates a multidisciplinary approach. Laser technology in cosmetic dentistry is in its early stages of development and has a lot of potential in the future. Also, with expanding use of lasers in clinical dentistry, treatment planning and prognosis will see a significant improvement in the future. The introduction of this technology has turned dentistry into a painless, bloodless field with increased predictability and instant outcomes. Furthermore, these techniques can help a cosmetic dentist regulate gingiva and osseous outlines with greater creativity in the pursuit of aesthetic dental principles with more efficient use of patient time. Even from the patient standpoint, the reduced requirement for suturing and faster healing times improves case acceptance and enables the increased demand for aesthetic dentistry. The resolution of this paper is to deliver an overview of various laser applications in aesthetic dentistry and its pros and cons over the conventional approaches.

Theodore Maiman in 1960 introduced the first solid state ruby LASER. Since then LASERs have come a long way with numerous applications in the field of medicine and dentistry. In dentistry LASERs are now in vogue and are now becoming a part of the dentist's armamentarium for endodontic , restorative , periodontal and implant therapies. This paper gives an insight to the basics of LASER physics, various types of LASERs, their interactions with biologic tissues and their uses in Periodontics.
