What Is Lite Touch Dental Laser?
It is a microsurgical dental laser instrument that offers excellent precision combined with ease of movement and versatility.
This instrument makes use of a laser to allow dental surgeons to precisely sculpt dental tissues in a minimally invasive manner.
It operates at 2.94 micrometres which is a safe wavelength with minimal unwanted penetration.
It is being used all around the world and there are thousands of successful cases that have proven the efficacy of this dental laser.
Let’s now take a look at some of the features of the Lite Touch dental laser.

This microsurgical instrument uses the least invasive laser wavelength that is easily absorbed by water as well as hydroxyapatite.
Simply put, it can be precisely used on soft as well as hard tissues for decontamination, cutting and ablation with outstanding efficiency.
It is also completely safe to use. It uses a micro-ablation mechanism to vaporise oral tissues while maintaining tissue integrity and vascularisation.
Ease of Use
It is a uniquely designed and very small dental laser. In fact, it is the smallest Erbium YAG dental laser in the world.
The entire laser mechanism is packed in a small chamber which is 12 cm long and has a diameter of 2.5 cm.
Due to its compact size, there is minimum energy loss and it gives the feel of a turbine drill with the unique benefits of laser.
It is highly ergonomic allowing unlimited movement to dental surgeons which makes it easy for them to access all areas of the oral cavity.
It also has a short learning curve due to its ease of use.
