Materials and Methods 20 patients were treated with a 980 nm diode laser. Oral surgery 5 patients 5 upper and lower frenulectomy . Fluence levels were 5-15 J cm2 pulse lengths were 20-60 ms spot size was 1 mm. Vascular lesions 10 patients 5 small angiomas 5 telangiectases . Fluences were 6-10 J cm2 pulse lengths were 10-50 ms spot size was 2 mm. In all cases the areas surrounding the lesions were cooled. Pigmented lesions 5 patients 5 keratoses . All the lesions were evaluated by dermatoscopy before the treatment. Fluence levels were 7-15 J cm2 pulse lengths were 20-50 ms spot size was 1 mm. All the patients were followed at 1 4 and 8 weeks after the procedure. Results Healing in oral surgery was within 10 days. The melanoses healed completely within four weeks. All the vascular lesions healed after 15 days without any residual scarring. Conclusions The end results for the use of the 980 nm diode laser in oral and facial .
