    Nice work Matt.

    How can anyone not appreciate that any other technology would not get that sort of clean result?

    E-surge? Doubt it–too dangerous to underlying bone. Radio-surg. Perhaps.

    Way to go!

    Matt:

    The pre-op tissue is obviously highly inflamed yet you have excellent hemostasis with minimal charring. That’s pretty cool!

    Gregg brought up the topic of electro/radiosurge. Maybe just me but I see another advantage. Clinically I seem to have better results controlling hemorrhage with minimal charring when comparing a soft tissue laser to electrosurge.

    Can you tell us more about the laser used and operating parameters such as power setting, rep rate and pulse duration?

    Nice case and large composite restoration. Even though patient has not accepted ideal treatment you’ve provided an excellent service!

    I used the periolase for this treatment. As far as power and other settings, I pressed the gingevectomy button. How is that for user friendly? I am not going back to work until Tuesday, so I cannot tell you what those settings are. Maybe someone else at work can chime in here.

    In similar fasion for gingival troughing, I press the troughing button, etc. There are tons of pre-set buttons on the periolase. All are easily changed, but the presets are excellent starting points.

    That’s cool bro. I do all of my posting at home. Half the time can’t even remember what settings I used during the day.

    PerioLase user? Nuff said. Credibility established. Remains the only laser manufacturer which will not ship the unit until the user is properly trained.

    Matt,

    Very nicely handled. Was another laser used to remove the decay?

    Mechanical removal the old fashioned way. Sorry to disappoint.
