The CO2 9300nm dental laser beams are delivered via:

The CO2 9300nm dental laser beams are delivered via a hollow wave guide. This is primarily due to the specific characteristics of CO2 lasers, which emit infrared light at a wavelength that is efficiently transmitted through hollow wave guides. These devices are designed to handle the specific properties of the laser light, allowing for precise targeting and minimal loss of energy.

Hollow wave guides are particularly advantageous for delivering laser beams in dental applications because they can maintain the quality and intensity of the beam over distances and provide flexibility in directing the laser to the treatment area. This feature is crucial in dental practices, where accuracy and precision are essential for effective treatment and patient safety.

While other delivery methods such as quartz fiber, silica wave guide, or articulating arms are used for different laser types or modalities, they do not possess the same efficacy or suitability for the CO2 laser's specific wavelength and intended applications in dental procedures.
