    Greetings,

    I now have the Waterlaser and the Periolase and am thinking about how to maximize their use. We started off thinking of putting each in its own room but am realizing I will miss many opportunities for one laser or the other. It looks now like we will work out of one room for most production and use a second room for seatings, fittings and similar procedures. Any suggestions based on your experience as to placement and arrangement in the operatory?

    Hi there: I now have four lasers in the office. I think to maximize the usage a diode or periolase could be on a cart and moved between rooms (hygiene and Main ops).

    The erbium I leave in one room.

    Its bigger and more difficult to move.

    Just an idea and I like my Cart that we have two of the lasers on.

    If I get a chance to post pics I will.

    Glenn,

    Thanks for your comments.  Our lasers are on carts and moveable.  I have a location where I could slide then into a wall and have them available directly at hand when I am working on a patient.  This would make it possible to pull them just a few inches to orient the machine to what ever we are doing.  They can still be moved to my other op when required.  I just need to make the hole in the wall etc.

    hi,
    I have the delight and a 980 than we use in all the operatories because we install air plug into wall of each operatories.We also place a battery on the 980 to change it of operatories without new starting delay

    Marc- Andre,
    Thanks for your comments.  I will let you know how my system works.  I want the lasers immediately available when I am working similar to my handpieces as my approach is laser assisted and I want to make it simple for the staff.  We can move the lasers as we have installed quick disconnect water and air (different size quick connect) in both operatories.

    For example, today I removed some gingival tissue with the waterlaser from the mesial root of a lower first molar as there was decay below the level of the tissue.  I wanted the Waterlaser for the hard tissue application.  There was some bloody weeping of the tissue.  The Periolase is over in the corner and would need to be moved etc. so I opted for Hemodent.   Soon I should be able to grab the Periolase fiber and create hemostasis because it is right there and already hooked up to power.

    Skied Mon Tremblant once.  Stayed in San Jovite.  Great time.  Voulez vous dance avec moi.  The sum total of my french but it was all I needed to know.

    Pat, I tried to keep my Lasersimle and the waterlase in one room. Just too much hassle. I have it so I can use them in any room. They get moved around a bunch. I do like the idea of being able to do any procedure in any room. Then again when I get a scope, that just won’t work. I mean if I get a scope!!
