Dental Diode Lasers

This article addresses the control over the Depth of Incision, and the Depth of Coagulation / Hemostasis during a CO₂ laser frenectomy, and illustrates these concepts through a Case Study: the revision of a tongue tie that was previously released with a hot tip diode.

Proper orofacial function in patients can be restored through an extensive functional release of restrictive lingual frenum. The functional release is achieved through the SuperPulse CO₂ laser frenectomy accompanied by the tongue mobility assessment; and mandatory OMT.
