SwpmnSpectatorBob and Ron:
Thanks for the theory on laser anesthesia with the defocused technique. Whatever the mechanism, although I’ve only used two weeks, seems to work.
Ron, do you know if LR Eversole is Lawrence or Larry Eversole? I trained under a Larry Eversole at the University of Florida from 1985-89. Dr. Eversole was an Oral Pathologist.

Al, I don’t know if he is or not. So I guess I can’t help that way.
I’m glad the ‘amalgam removal’ and Marks suggestions have been helpful. That was the whole intent of this site – sharing as we learn.
2thlaserSpectatorHey Pat,
If you don’t mind. I would recommend that if you are cutting enamel and or dentin, I would use at minimum 24% water. This really helps cut, clean, and I can assure you, no charring, and you can even keep your suction tip a bit closer. Hope this helps.

2thlaserSpectatorRon,
I second Al’s accolades on this message board. I learn everyday somebody posts here. From Bob, to Glenn, to you, to Al, Pat, and now I am sure I WILL forget a name or two, but thanks to all. This is what so invigorates me for OUR profession. Thanks to all you pioneers!!

Er,Cr:YSGG 5.25W 95/85 60 seconds defocused buccal then prep decayed grooves for another 60 seconds. High speed removal of amalgam then slow speed for final decay removal. GI base followed by Fugi LC , etch, bond and restore with tetric flow & ceram. No local or topical anesthesia. Can’t wait for a better camera but these will have to do for now.Preop intraoral camera image
