This CE webinar explores the role of lasers in endodontics, with an emphasis on improving root canal disinfection while preserving tooth structure. Participants will review the biological challenges posed by complex canal anatomy and bacterial biofilms, the principles of photothermal and photoacoustic effects, and the role of laser-assisted irrigation alongside conventional instrumentation and irrigation. Drawing on scientific literature and clinical examples, the webinar will discuss laser technology and considerations for case selection, technique, and safety. Clinical observations will be distinguished from published evidence, helping participants critically evaluate the benefits, limitations, and appropriate use of laser-assisted endodontic approaches.

Upon completion of this CE webinar, the student will be able to:
• Identify anatomical and microbiological challenges that affect root canal disinfection
• Describe how laser-assisted irrigation may complement conventional treatment while supporting tooth preservation
• Identify case-selection considerations and safety principles for incorporating laser-assisted techniques into endodontic practice   ( disclaimer, bio and commercial disclosure )
