    Abstract:
    The treatment of 2989 patients with different type of lasers was described. The argon laser beam was used in 57 cases (portwine stains, telangiectasias, angiofibromas and other vascular lesions) and 84 operations were performed by Nd YAG laser (leukoplakia, hemangioma etc.) furthermore 53 operations by combined laser beams. 2795 operation by carbon dioxide laser were performed in precancerous states and other white lesions, benign tumors and tumor-like states, malignant tumors and other lesions. The laser procedures were performed under local anaesthesia. Operations were rapid and bloodless and excellent cosmetic and functional results were obtained. The experience gained with this group of patients suggests that the ideal case for laser treatment are leukoplakia, hemangiomas and other vascular tumors and lesions of the face and the oral cavity and clotting disturbance.
