Laser has become a ray of hope in dentistry. When used efficaciously and ethically, lasers are an exceptional modality of treatment for many clinical conditions that dentists treat on daily basis. But laser has never been the "magic wand" that many people have hoped for. However, the futures of dental laser is bright with some of the newest ongoing researches.Though the lasers were introduced in 1960 by Theodore Maiman it was not until the last decade that lasers have shown rapid strides in technology advances. The emergence of lasers with variable wavelength and the ability to be used for various applications in dentistry may influence the treatment and treatment planning of dental patients. Lasers in pediatric dentistry have benefits as well as limitations. Though American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recognizes the use of lasers as an alternative method of providing soft and hard tissue dental procedures for infants, children, adolescents, and persons with special health care needs, dental professional requires additional training to use and apply on pediatric dental patients. In the present scenario, lasers can be a useful adjunct to our regular pediatric dental practice.
