In total, 2-cm-long 240 incisions were made along the surface of the tissue parallel to glass slides and the camera capture field. Incisions were performed using 445-nm and infrared (IR) lasers (970 nm and 980 nm on a continuous wave at 2 W) with 320 µm-initiated (concentrated energy at the tip provided by a blue articulated paper and laser irradiation) and noninitiated (defused energy) fiber (30-sec irradiation period). LA was injected into the specimens before irradiation. The temperature changes in °C (ΔT) and vertical and lateral heat transfer (in mm) were recorded at 10-sec intervals for 30 sec, using thermographic images. The amount of lateral and vertical heat transfer was measured. A repeated analysis of variance statistical comparison test was used to analyze differences between the lateral (width) and the vertical (height) heat transfer for initiated and noninitiated lasers and different lasers. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The maximum ΔT in °C utilizing initiated tips of 970, 980, or 445 nm were 11.82 ± 3.46, 7.66 ± 3.24, and 18.94 ± 7.01 and using noninitiated tips were 8.27 ± 1.69, 8.87 ± 2.40, and 12.31 ± 8.65, respectively. Heat transfers (height/width) for initiated were 40.65 ± 10.40/90.65 ± 10.77 mm, 41.50 ± 11.83/83.95 ± 11.20 mm, and 33.70 ± 9.10/95.10 ± 11.17 mm and for noninitiated lasers were 52.95 ± 6.89/96.10 ± 11.17 mm, 47.75 ± 7.41/93.75 ± 14.96 mm, and 31.35 ± 11.40/75.20 ± 19.68 mm, respectively. A statistically significant difference was found between all lasers (<i>p</i> < 0.05) for initiated and noninitiated lasers (except for 970/980 nm for noninitiated lasers). Lower penetration depth (<i>p</i> < 0.05) at 445-nm diode and greater lateral heat spreading (<i>p</i> < 0.05) were identified under LA especially utilizing noninitiated tips without significant difference in IR lasers. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> LA might negatively influence soft tissues creating scattering when noninitiated tips are used and IR diode laser technology.</p>","PeriodicalId":94169,"journal":{"name":"Photobiomodulation, photomedicine, and laser surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142127780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite these promising attributes, the realization of precise cavity preparation remains a significant challenge in the contemporary domain. <b><i>Materials and Methods:</i></b> Our research group devised a specialized femtosecond laser microsurgery robotic system tailored for sophisticated implant cavity preparation.
