The book describes the state of the art in laser dentistry, with a complete review of the applications in every field of dentistry, giving informations about the device used and the parameters set . A book for the beginner and for the advanced practitioner.

This is a very detailed book- however as we know, a topic like laser dentistry is advancing rapidly so that a book cannot be completely current. I believe this has great fundamental information about many many things. It was way over my head in some aspects and extremely helpful with others. Overall, I feel that it is a good publication to have if you are currently, or contemplating becoming a dentist adept in using laser energy to help with procedures for your patients.

It is helpfull book for dentist. This book is updated and cover most of dental laser applications. I am admired with historic review of laser developing.

Dr. Convissar has created a very readable text that provides information ranging from physics to clinical tips. It's my "go to" source when I have questions.

Good source of information.a must for every laser user.need more practical information.recommend it for every student and young dentists .
