Abstract
This study investigates the efficiency of the Er, Ho, Nd:YAG, and Nd:YAP laser radiation influence on the hard and the soft dental tissues. The penetration depth of the radiation in tissue depends on its absorption in water, which is the function of the laser wavelength. From this point of view the ablation and the cutting effects of the five various wavelengths (1.06 µm, 1.34 µm, 1.44 µm, 2.1 µm, and 2.9 µm) were analyzed.
