The Technology Behind Lasers

The main factor involved in the absorption, scattering, reflection or transmission of the light energy emitted from a laser is its wavelength. In turn, the wavelength dictates the potential uses of specific lasers. By using an active element to excite atoms to emit photons, a very focused beam of light with a specific wavelength can be produced from the laser. The wavelength determines the depth of penetration
of the emitted light into hard or soft tissues, with shallower penetration resulting in superficial effects and deeper penetration resulting in effects throughout the area of tissue penetrated. The absorption of the light results in the production of heat, and depending on the temperature change and tissue, the end result may be superficial (such as charring) or deeper, such as vaporization or the melting of enamel and subsequent recrystallization (which can also increase acid resistance). As a result of these fundamental laser physics, lasers of different wavelengths are used for different types of procedures.
