Grating Feedback in a 810 nm Broad-Area Diode Laser
Narrow linewidth, single spectral mode operation has been obtained in a high power, 810 nm broad-area diode laser in an extended cavity configuration with a grating as external reflector (grating feedback). For stable operation it was necessary to misalign the feedback slightly in the plane of the laser junction. Characteristics of the thus obtained laser system are a linewidth below 5 MHz, an ...
متن کاملAnterior esthetic gingival depigmentation and crown lengthening: report of a case.
Excessive gingival display space and gingival hyperpigmentation are major concerns for a large number of patients visiting the dentist. Melanin hyperpigmentation usually does not present a medical problem, but patients usually complain of dark gums as unaesthetic. This problem is aggravated in patients with a "gummy smile" or excessive gingival display while smiling. Esthetic periodontal plasti...
متن کاملLip Repositioning with Crown Lengthening & Gingival Depigmentation: A Case Report
This clinical report describes the successful use of lip repositioning technique for the reduction of excessive gingival display. A 34-year-old female patient reported with a chief complaint of gummy smile. The lip repositioning technique was performed under local anesthesia with the main objective of reducing gummy smile by limiting the retraction of elevator muscles (e.g. zygomaticus minor, l...
متن کاملVersatility of an 810 nm Diode Laser in Dentistry: An Overview
The breakthrough for dental laser systems came in the mid 1990's. Among the various laser types with corresponding wavelengths, diode laser systems quickly began establishing themselves as compact, competitively priced and versatile additions to the dentist's repertoire, predominantly for performing soft tissue applications. Research has shown that near infrared (NIR) wavelengths are ideally su...
متن کاملEsthetic crown lengthening for maxillary anterior teeth.
In the maxillary anterior region, the gingival labial margin position is an important parameter in the achievement of an ideal smile. The relationship between the periodontium and the restoration is critical if gingival health and esthetics are to be achieved. Periodontal therapy is a necessary and useful adjunct when any anterior restoration is undertaken. Anterior surgical crown lengthening m...
