Treated a patient last week with moderate to severe tenderness in her buccal vestibule fro #22-28. She couldn’t brush or floss, her tissue was so tender.
Pre-lasing condition:

The area was treated w/ 2000J of Nd:YAG energy in a defocused fashion (20Hz; 100usec pulses; 200mJ/pulse).
43 hours later the patient presented back for evaluation. She said she hadn’t felt any pain since the lasing. She was truly amazed and thankful.

Post-Op condition:

Cool stuff!
