14 Clinical Application of CO 2 Laser
نویسندگان
چکیده
The carbon dioxide (CO2) laser was first introduced in 1964 by Patel and has been extensively used in the next two decades as an incision tool in increasingly wide areas, such as neurosurgery, dermatology and plastic surgery, otorhinolaryngology, ophthalmology, gynecology, and general surgery. In 1984, its reliability resulted in its approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and thus, medical use of lasers became more prevalent. Currently, the CO2 laser is considered an indispensable piece of diagnostic and therapeutic equipment.

Synthesis of Three-Layered Magnetic Based Nanostructure for Clinical Application
The main objective of this research was to synthesize and characterize gold-coated Fe3O4 /SiO2 nanoshells for clinical applications. Magnetite nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared via co-precipitation. The results showed that smaller particles can be synthesized by decreasing the NaOH concentration, which in our case this corresponded to 35 nm by using 0.9 M of NaOH at 750 rpm. The NPs were then m...
متن کاملTreatment of varicella skin scars with sequential punch elevation, autologous fat injection and fractional CO2 laser
Varicella is a common viral infection that occasionally results in scar. Despite a number of measurements taken to combat this infection, they have all been either impractical or limited.The current study presents a 28-year-old woman diagnosed with varicella 10 years ago which caused her to have several depressed skin scars over the face. She was subjected to sequential treatment of punch eleva...
متن کاملSystematic review (Meta-analysis) of clinical trials on hair removal Lasers
Background: The theory of selective photo-thermolysis led to the development of a variety of different laser systems which range from the shorter spectrum of 694nm ruby laser to the middle with the 755nm alexandrite and 810nm diode lasers to the long end with the 1064nm (Nd:YAG) laser. Objective: A systematic review on the clinical trials with use of various laser sources for hair removal...
متن کاملAdjunctive Low-level Laser Therapy Using 980-nm Diode Laser after Impacted Mandibular Third Molar Surgery: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Background and Objective: Extraction of impacted lower third molars is one of the most frequent surgeries of the oral cavity. This operation might be accompanied by inevitable complications, such as pain, swelling, and trismus after surgery. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of low-intensity/power laser therapy on swelling and trismus after impacted mandibular third mo...
متن کاملEvaluation of Diode laser (940 nm) irradiation effect on microleakage in class V composite restoration before and after adhesive application
Introduction: Nowadays, the main focus of dental studies is on adhesive dental materials; since clinical long-term success of bonded restorations depended more on marginal microleakage minimization. So, the aim of this study was Evaluation of Diode laser irradiation effect on microleakage in class V composite restoration before and after adhesive application. Materials and methods: In this in v...
