HANDS-ON Utilize Today’s Dental Lasers in Managing Periodontal/Soft Tissue Conditions in the Dental Practice: A Workshop with Laser Certification
Presented by Dr. Sam Low

Ready to enter the laser world? Have an “unused” laser in the closet?
Give your practice a boost by harnessing laser technology with a positive result that manages effectively day-to-day periodontal to soft tissue patient conditions. Dr. Low shows you how to choose the right laser and apply simple techniques that result in precision, controlled bleeding, accelerated healing, reduced post-operative issues, shorter procedure time and a more relaxed experience for the patient. He presents procedures including non-surgical periodontics (laser bacterial reduction, curettage) frenectomy, gingivectomy, restorative troughing, biopsy, fibroma removal, implant uncovering and TMD bio-stimulation with consideration of coding and patient acceptance.
Experience direct hands-on activity with Biolase diode lasers on a variety of models including a pig jaw. Dr. Low works with you, providing insight into each procedure in a step-by-step fashion to instill confidence when you return to the practice. A Biolase Waterlase also will be available for hands-on activities.
The course is designed for both dental hygienists and dentists and complies with standards for laser certification which will be awarded by Biolase with successful examination completion.
Objectives

Investigate laser utilization including wavelengths and respective techniques (Review laser physics and safety)
Determine the appropriate laser equipment for the individual practice
Understand indications for using lasers in crown lengthening and pre-orthodontic procedures including esthetics
Consider case reports demonstrating success along with clear contraindications.
Develop techniques for incorporating laser into a dental practice considering patient acceptance, third party coding
Differentiate laser technologies for periodontal indications (surgical and non-surgical) (Laser bacterial reduction LBR, curettage, and low-level laser therapy, LLLT)
Develop post-operative evaluation protocols assessing wound healing

Dr. Sam Low has 30 years of private practice experience in periodontics, lasers and implant placement.
