EVALUATION OF INNOVATIVE DIGITALLY CONTROLLED ER:YAG LASER IN SURGICAL TREATMENT OF ORAL LEUKOPLAKIA - A PRELIMINARY STUDY.

The use of lasers for treatment of oral leukoplakia has gained a lot of interest in the past years, however, data on the use of Er:YAG laser are scarce. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of Er:YAG laser and 1% topical isotretinoin in the treatment of 27 oral leukoplakia patients. Er:YAG laser (LightWalker AT, Fotona, Slovenia) was used in 27 patients with 27 leukoplakia lesions.
