<P> Similarly ND: YAG lasers are used for soft tissue surgeries in the oral cavity, such as gingivectomy, periodontal sulcular debridement, LANAP, frenectomy, biopsy, and coagulation of graft donor sites . The Nd: YAG laser wavelength are partially absorbed by pigment in the tissue such as hemoglobin and melanin . These lasers are often used for debridement and disinfection of periodontal pockets . Their coagulative ability to form fibrin allows them to seal treated pockets . </P> <P> The CO laser remains the best surgical laser for the soft tissue where both cutting and hemostasis is achieved photo - thermally (radiantly). </P> <Ul> <Li> Er: YAG laser </Li> <Li> Carbon dioxide laser </Li> <Li> Er, Cr: YSGG laser </Li> </Ul> <Li> Er: YAG laser </Li>
