Laser diodes have a vast number of uses from fibre optics for telecommunications to CDs and DVDs. They are the most common laser type with an approximately over 1 billion units sold. Laser diodes have become more popular in medicine and dentistry in the last few decades as the are user friendly, they perform typically well with soft tissue procedures as they have a high absorption rate for hemoglobin.

Is a diode laser a nd. yag laser?

No, a diode laser and an Nd:YAG laser are two different types of lasers. A diode laser uses a diode as the laser medium and is commonly used for various applications such as hair removal and skin treatments. On the other hand, an Nd:YAG laser uses neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet as the laser medium and is often used for medical and cosmetic procedures, as well as in industrial applications.
