Diode laser is a laser, usually between 810 and 980 nm wavelength, able to work on hard and soft tissues, as periodontal tissues and bone. The use of Diode laser is recommended during oral surgery or periodontal therapy, when it is necessary to erase any periodontal bacteria evolved in periodontal disease, in combination with hydrogen peroxide (photodynamic therapy), and also, by its biostimulating effects, to improve the healing of the regenerative procedures, as sinus lift, bone crestal expansion or to assist implant surgery. This article shows two cases report in which diode lasers are evolved. Diode lasers in association with Hydrogen Peroxide on utilizing the decontaminant effects oh Photodynamic Therapy, and to prepare the area defects for a regenerative surgery.
