Hard & Soft Tissue Lasers: A Standard Proficiency Certification Course with Dr. Robert Convissar (Hands-On) 2026

Hard & Soft Tissue Lasers: A Standard Proficiency Certification Course with Dr. Robert Convissar (Hands-On) is organized by New Jersey Health Professionals Development Institute (NJHPDI) and will be held from May 15 - 16, 2026 at New Jersey Health Professionals Development Institute (NJHPDI), River Edge, New Jersey, United States of America.

Description:
Since 1990, the U.S. Food and Drug administration has approved the use of seven different wavelengths for dental use. These different wavelengths create a world of difference in how the lasers operate, and their usefulness in the oral cavity.

The lectures on both days will detail laser use in the following subject matters:

• Surgical and non-surgical periodontal therapy
• Implantology
• Fixed and removable prosthetics
• Oral medicine / oral surgery / oral pathology
• Pediatric and adolescent operative dentistry
• Endodontics Practice management / marketing

HANDS-ON Portion: 
The workshops will give each participant a hands-on experience with the various wavelengths by performing surgical procedures on pig jaws. Real time videos of routine laser procedures will be part of the in-depth discussion of specific instrument settings and techniques for laser surgical procedures.

About the Certification:
Candidates who successfully complete the course will receive a Continuing Education Certificate from both NJHPDI and Dr. Robert Convissar in Dental Lasers recognized by the American Board of Laser Surgery (ABLS), the world’s only laser medical specialty board. This course is the first and only US-based training course that offers a Certificate of Dental Laser Proficiency under the ABLS banner.
