The parallels in the expansion of implant dentistry and laser dentistry in clinical practice are apparent. As advocates for laser dentistry continue to seek new ways to use the technology and as more practitioners become involved in implant dentistry, it is logical to see the concurrent use of both technologies in clinical practice. This article provides data that clearly support the value of dental lasers in the practice of implant dentistry. The challenge for the practitioner is the same as for any other area of dentistry: knowing when, where, and what armamentarium to use in any given situation. Not all dental laser wavelengths are necessarily useful in every dental implant situation. After clinicians know the characteristics of the wavelengths available to them, the application of the technology to the specific situation certainly is warranted.
