RESUMEN
A new concept was developed based on the experience gained in dental rehabilitation with implantation in the oral maxillofacial region. Despite the use of cooling systems, mechanically rotating instruments may damage the surrounding tissue due to the frictional heat generated. An alternative approach for bone removal is laser application. A preoperative plan was prepared. Laser ablation was performed in accordance with the data set on bovine bone using a navigation system. This new concept allows precise bone removal and adjustment of the laser power according to the preoperative plan. The power of the laser automatically decreases as it approaches the border of the planned cavity or important anatomical structures. The advantage of this approach is precise and safe bone removal without damaging the bone by frictional heat.
