Case report series: The use of diode lasers in veterinary dentistry

L

asers’ utility is extending more and more nowadays,

coming up to support conservative treatments. Even

more, pathological entities for which conservative treatments

have produced uncertain, poor or less repetitive results

may find their key to success with the help of diode lasers.

Understanding their action mechanism and their interaction

withthetissueswilltelluswhere,howandforhowlongshould

we use them. Feline calicivirus and Feline immunodeficiency

virus are infectious agents that usually are associated with

chronic gingivostomatitis, seeking for a repeatable treatment

with reproductible healing time prediction. We have a series

ofcasereportswithourapproachtodifferentoralpathologies,

like severe lingual ulcer associated to Feline calicivirus,

alveolar gingivitis associated to Feline immunodeficiency

virus, feline aggressive juvenile periodontitis, where the use

of near infra-red lasers brought a lot of improvement in the

clinical panel. Another interesting case report regarding the

use of diode lasers is a complex case of suborbital abscess,

expressed by an extraoral fistula for an upper fourth

premolar, where we combined surgical endodontics with

the utility of lasers and we have obtained complete clinical

healing in 24 hours. Results were spectacular and confirmed

that everything that was studied and accomplished in human

dentistry regarding the use of diode lasers in oral pathologies

may also be applied to our patients in veterinary dentistry.

This, gives us hopes for shortening the healing time of the

pathological conditions that are so painful and difficult to

approach through conservative treatment methods. All the

results may be explained by the lasers interaction mechanism

with the tissues, as stated by recognized authors
