[Reactions of dental tissue to laser radiation].
Tests made with Nd: YAG laser showed that it is possible to seal the surface of teeth with laser radiation using energy densities of 10 J/cm2 to 50 J/cm2. In-vivo experiments with monkeys did not show any demage to the pulp when these energy densities and radiation close to that in the dental office were applied.
