Abstract
Lasers are relatively new additions to orthodontic therapy. This paper reviews the available laser wavelengths and will discuss some adjunct application of diode lasers for soft tissue procedures. These include photobiomodulation, laser gingivectomy to improve oral hygiene or bracket positioning, aesthetic laser gingival recontouring and laser exposure of the superficially impacted teeth. Selected treated cases will be presented throughout.
