Biolase is touting the findings of a pair of studies published in two scientific journals that investigated the company's Waterlase laser technology for treating peri-implantitis in patients.
Research about the company's technology was published in the November/December 2020 issue of the International Journal of Periodontics & Restorative Dentistry and on April 30 in Lasers in Medical Science.
For the former journal, company leaders said researchers found the laser to be successful in debriding a titanium implant surface to facilitate subsequent regenerative treatment. For the latter journal, the company said the laser decreased bacteria from zirconia discs.
