No Compromise - Dentistry’s Two Optimal Laser WavelengthsTwo lasers for superior clinical resultsAbsorption spectrums3• Larger 10.1 inch display• New advanced touch screen user interface• More intuitive navigation & settings• User-friendly application wizards• Fully customizable memory for presets• Treatment history & patient database• Monitors treatment time & delivered energy• For first-time users & advanced practitionersFotona LightWalker® comes standard with dentistry’s two most effective laser wavelengths: Er:YAG and Nd:YAG for no-compromise dentistry with a touch of the control screen. Universal Laser SystemIt is a well-established fact that different dental procedures require different laser wavelengths. Wavelength is important because specific oral tissues react in different ways depending on the particular laser source. With the choice of two complementary wavelengths (in terms of their effect on tissues) Fotona LightWalker® comes very close to being a “universal” laser. Practically all laser-assisted dental treatments can be performed with either the Er:YAG laser wavelength, the most highly absorbed in water, or the Nd:YAG laser wavelength that is absorbed in pigments. Fotona TwinLight® Treatment ConceptThe combination of the two best wavelengths in one laser system enables practitioners to perform not only single-wavelength but also dual-wavelength (Fotona TwinLight®) treatments. Utilizing both wavelengths in a treatment makes optimum use of the unique laser-tissue interaction characteristics of each wavelength. For example, Nd:YAG laser energy is superior for coagulation and deep decontamination, while Er:YAG is uniquely efficient at ablating hard and soft tissues. Combined, they can greatly expand the range of treatment possibilities and dramatically improve the outcome of laser-assisted treatments. Upgraded Fotona LightWalker®:Fotona LightWalker® comes standard with dentistry’s two most effective laser wavelengths: Er:YAG and Nd:YAG for no-compromise dentistry with a touch of the control screen.

A. BARABA et al, Photomed Laser Surg, 2009;27(6):921-927.In Fotona LightWalker®, both “gold standard” laser wavelengths are produced by solid crystal lasers that can significantly outperform diode lasers in terms of peak power and the range of pulse durations. Fast efficient cutting with unmatched patient comfortWith the advent of ASP technology and higher peak power (several kW), the Fotona LightWalker® has established a new standard for ablation/cutting speed. This new accelerated cutting speed provides today’s dentists with the speed and precision they demand, while simultaneously increasing patient comfort.Precise tissue surgery with simultaneous disinfection Due to the presence of pigmented chromophores in soft tissues, Nd:YAG laser absorption results in controlled tissue vaporization with simultaneous coagulation and disinfection for superior healing.

Third Generation ASP Technology Fotona LightWalker® and its groundbreaking ASP (Adaptive Structured Pulse) technology represent a cosmic shift forward for the medical and dental laser industry. This third-generation technology combines the unsurpassed range of pulse duration modes of Fotona® VSP (Variable Square Pulse) technology with the revolutionary capability of ASP technology to adapt the temporal structure of laser pulses to the bio-photonic dynamics of laser-tissue interaction.Quantum Square Pulse (QSP)By avoiding the hard-tissue debris cloud the laser ablates more efficiently and with greater precision in Fotona® patented QSP mode because the laser beam is not affected by the debris. By being able to ablate more efficiently, the edges of individual craters are sharp and consistent, providing higher levels of precision and preservation in hard-tissue treatments.

SSP (Super Short Pulse) irrigation (also known asPhoton Induced Photo-acoustic Streaming) uses the Er:YAGlaser to create non-thermal photoacoustic waves within thecleaning and debriding solutions introduced in the canal. SSPprovides superior cleaning and smear layer removalcompared to conventional irrigation.2. The latest Fotona SWEEPS® (Shock Wave EnhancedEmission Photo-acoustic Streaming) Er:YAG laser modalityadditionally improves the irrigation and decontaminationefficacy of laser endodontics. By using synchronized pairs ofultra-short pulses, an accelerated collapse of laser-inducedbubbles is achieved, leading to enhanced shockwaveemission inside even the narrowest root canals.Fotona SWEEPS® Endodontic Treatment

Source: Baltimore Center for Laser Dentistry.9“Lasers are really an essential part of periodontics, I believe. After using lasers in periodontics for 10 years I couldn't imagine one day trying to do periodontics without a laser. I'd be back in the Stone Age.”Alan Dalessandro, DDSThe Fotona TwinLight® approach enables wavelength-optimized treatments for minimally invasive periodontal therapy, which create favorable conditions for healing periodontal tissues by removing the diseased epithelial lining of the periodontal pocket, removing microbial biofilm and calculus from the root surface and sealing the pocket after treatment with a stable fibrin clot.Moreover, Fotona LightWalker® has been FDA cleared for laser-assisted new attachment procedure and true periodontal regeneration of the attachment apparatus (new cementum, new periodontal ligament, and new alveolar bone) on a previously diseased root surface.

Fotona TwinLight® Peri-Implantitis TreatmentKey Advantages:• Minimally invasive technique• No thermal or mechanical damage tothe surrounding bone• Fast regeneration/healing• Reduced inflammatory responseRemoval of the soft-granulation tissue and ablation of the infected bone with Er:YAG.Removal of the bacterial biofilm on the implant surfaces with Er:YAG.Bacterial reduction and biostimulation of the bone tissue with Nd:YAG (never expose the implant surface to the Nd:YAG laser beam).Peri-implantitis treatmentMinimally invasive procedure 10“For me, the bestselling application is immediate implantation. Very often, when the tooth is fractured and you have to extract the root, there is a granulation soft tissue. With the laser I'm able to clean it thoroughly. I can disinfect the bone. So it's quite safe and predictable to do immediate implantation.”Michał Nawrocki, DDS, MSc Fotona TwinLight® Peri-Implantitis Treatment combines dentistry’s two best laser wavelengths. Removal of granulation tissue from the alveolar bone with Er:YAG laser is selective. The bactericidal effect of Er:YAG on the surgical site is highly effective and the implant surface is cleaned without chemicals. The subsequent Nd:YAG treatment step promotes faster healing by decontaminating and biomodulating the tissue.
