Abstract
- The neodymium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG)laser is most widely used for treatment of lesions affecting the oral mucosa.A pulsed Nd:YAG laser (SDL-300EN, Samsung Electronics, Korea)with a wavelength of 1.32 micro meter was used. In all cases, contact mode was used. Four cases of soft tissue oral lesions are presented to document the clinical aspects. Surgery proceeded without complication and healing was uneventful. This study indicate that the Nd:YAG laser can be used successfully for intraoral soft tissue applications are well tolerated and minimal bleeding.
