What are the challenges for laser therapy of dental caries? Estimate the absorption coefficient and ablation threshold of enamel and dentin for the 1.057-µm radiation of the Nd:YLF laser. What would be the advantage of using the 800-nm radiation from the Ti:sapphire laser?

Genetics: How does gene therapy work? What are the challenges of gene therapy? Identify a disease state that could be treated with gene therapy. There are several ethical issues surrounding gene therapy. Pick one and state whether you agree or disagree with the position. Explain your answer. There are both highs and lows in gene therapy. Research the stories of Ashanti de Silva and Jesse Gelsinger. Based on the outcomes of these treatments, do you think experimental gene therapy trials...

There are currently four areas of dental care that are enjoying the benefits of laser technology: a) Cavity removal can be accomplished with two currently available (and FDA approved) laser machines; b) Curing, or hardening bonding materials is another area where lasers have become important; c) Whitening teeth can be accomplished with special solutions that are applied to the tooth surface in the dental office and activated by laser energy. d) Periodontal, or gum related care is the fourth area...
Are the molar extinction coefficient and cross-section of an absorption related to the probability of absorption?...
Are the molar extinction coefficient and cross-section of an absorption related to the probability of absorption? I have struggled to find a formal definition of cross-section of absorption; from what I've gathered, its best defined as 'the intensity of absorption'. Wikipedia's formal definition of the molar extinction coefficient is 'how strongly a species absorbs EMR at a given wavelength, per molar concentration'. So how are the molar extinction coefficient and cross-section different? I presume that whilst the molar extinction coefficient...

In a certain article, laser therapy was discussed as a useful alternative to drugs in pain management of chronically ill patients. To measure pain threshold, a machine was used that delivered low-voltage direct current to different parts of the body (wrist, neck, and back). The machine measured current in milliamperes (mA). The pretreatment experimental group in the study had an average threshold of pain (pain was first detectable) at μ = 3.28 mA with standard deviation σ = 1.26 mA....
