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
