These two videos demonstrate the use of dental lasers during endodontic treatment.
Here is Dr. Wesley Haddix using the Hoya ConBio VersaWave Er:YAG laser to assist in the disinfection of the root canal complex of a lower molar.

This video demonstrates the use of the Waterlase MD laser's photoacoustic effect in cleaning out a root canal.
