It delivers focused light energy to target bacteria, inflamed tissue, or to support healing, depending on the laser type and settings. It is commonly used alongside standard periodontal care such as scaling and root planing. It may be used in non-surgical periodontal therapy, selected surgical steps, and supportive maintenance visits."}
