J. Morita Introduces AdvErL Evo

IRVINE, Calif. – (September 3, 2014) – J. Morita USA introduces AdvErL Evo, an Er:YAG laser. AdvErL Evo is effective for a wide variety of applications on both hard and soft tissue and is clinically ideal for periodontal treatment.

AdvErL Evo eliminates the vibration of a high speed handpiece, providing a comfortable laser treatment option. Its wavelength is readily absorbed by water and efficiently vaporizes soft tissue.

This unit offers a wide variety of tip options, adding to its versatility, with an extensive selection for periodontic procedures. Applications include removal of subgingival calculus, diseased, infected, inflamed, and necrosed soft tissue within the periodontal pocket, subgingival calculus, and granulation tissue from bony defects. It may also be applied for soft tissue curettage, sulcular debridement, and osseous crown lengthening.

Most notably, AdvErL Evo has been studied and recognized clinically in the effective treatment of Peri-implantitis, a challenging disease leading to bone loss around an implant. With use of AdvErL Evo, a method has been found to regenerate tissue and permanently remove bacteria with a low-heat treatment process. Information about this study, and other peer-reviewed clinical articles, can be found at www.morita.com/usa/laser

In terms of patient benefits, AdvErL Evo is virtually painless. There is far less trauma compared to other laser types, as vaporization is concentrated at the surface of the tissue. The energy does not penetrate and damage deep layers of tissue, nor does it disperse widely to the adjacent area around the irradiation target.

“The AdvErL Evo all tissue laser is a significant addition to Morita’s portfolio of clinical solutions,” commented Travis Harrison, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Morita has been involved in laser research for over 30 years and is now on its 3rd generation of laser technology production – refined, practical, and clinically proven to be effective for both hard and soft tissue procedures – this unit is what all dental professionals have been waiting for. With published clinical indications of proven effectiveness, the AdvErL Evo all tissue laser provides clinicians alternative treatment options to combat the likes

of bio-film and peri-implantitis to the level that conventional technologies cannot match. With little to no heat generation, the AdvErL Evo Er:YAG 2940 nm wavelength allows for direct interaction surface decontamination separating itself from all other laser systems.”

AdvErL Evo will be introduced at the American Academy of Periodontology Annual Meeting in San Francisco, Moscone Center West, September 19 – 22, 2014. Clinical presentations will be held during Morita’s Corporate Forum, on Friday, September 19, starting at 1:00 pm in room 3008. A cutting station will also be available at the Morita Booth, #623, level 1. For more information, call 877-JMORITA (566-7482) or visit www.morita.com/usa/laser
