Technology used

Digital tools used when they improve oral surgery planning.

These product images are used where relevant, so patients can connect the technology to the actual service workflow.

Fotona Laser Dentistry Applications

Fotona dental laser workflows may support multiple areas of care when the diagnosis fits: periodontal therapy, peri-implant tissue support, oral surgery, soft-tissue contouring, frenectomy, lesion care, TMJ comfort workflows, NightLase, and SWEEPS-assisted endodontic irrigation.

Laser care is planned around the tooth, gum, implant, airway, or soft-tissue goal. It is not a one-size-fits-all procedure.

Patient-Focused Uses

Gum inflammation and periodontal maintenance support.
Soft-tissue procedures such as frenectomy or gingivectomy.
Implant maintenance and peri-implant tissue concerns.
Comfort-focused laser workflows for selected TMJ, airway, or healing needs.
