Minimally invasive periodontal therapy : Clinical techniques and visualization technology
The long-term success of periodontal therapy is dependent on proper diagnosis and removal of subgingival tooth-borne accretions in the form of calculus and bacteria. From a clinical perspective, better visualization during the diagnostic and therapeutic phases has been shown to yield better results compared to traditional approaches.Minimally Invasive Periodontal Therapy evaluates the advantages of using minimal invasive techniques, the technologies available for enhancing visualization during minimally invasive therapy, and step-by-step illustrates the clinical use of each technique.

Fixed prosthodontics in dental practice
The practice of fixed prosthodontics has undergone many changes in recent times with significant developments in dental materials and principles of adhesion.

The potential direct toxic effects on bone of drugs that prevent bone mass loss, such as bisphosphonates and denosumab, are fully examined, as is the occurrence of spontaneous oral bleeding in patients receiving antithrombotic therapies. Further chapters focus on drug-induced taste disorders and salivary gland disturbances, including xerostomia, swelling, and hypersalivation. The enhanced risk of oral infections when using chemotherapy and biotherapy is addressed, and the closing chapter examines drug-related perioral and facial complications. This book is a collaborative work that brings together clinicians, surgeons, and specialists in drug safety surveillance.

Crown lengthening by diode laser
Crown lengthening is a surgical technique aimed at increasing the amount of supragingival tooth structure for restorative or aesthetic purposes. it involves the removal of hard and soft periodontal tissue to expose more tooth structure above the gum line , allowing for longer clinical crowns and maintaining the biologic width .Various methods such as scalpel ,electrosurgery and laser can be employed for crown lengthening , with lasers offering several advantages over traditional techniques , including precision , minimal bleeding ,sterilization ,reduced swelling and scarring , coagulation ,vaporization ,and ,minimal postoperative pain .

Information is also provided on laser-assisted multi-tissue management, covering procedures such as crown lengthening, gingival troughing, gingival recontouring, and depigmentation.
Laser in restorative dentistry
The application of lasers in restorative dentistry has revolutionized dental treatments, offering enhanced precision, reduced discomfort, and improved clinical outcomes. Lasers have become a valuable tool in procedures such as cavity preparation, caries removal, tooth whitening, and composite resin curing. Their ability to selectively target diseased tissue while preserving healthy structures minimizes trauma and promotes faster healing. Moreover, lasers offer a less invasive alternative to traditional mechanical methods, often eliminating the need for anesthesia. This technology's versatility allows for its use in both hard and soft tissue treatments, including gingival recontouring and managing peri-implant diseases. As laser technology continues to advance, its integration into restorative dental practices offers significant potential for improved patient care, greater procedural efficiency, and long-term durability of restorations. Future developments in laser applications are expected to expand their role, making them an indispensable asset in modern dentistry.
