The laser source of the QuickLase™DUALDental Lasers or QuickLase™810/980 Dental Laser is an array of Gallium Aluminum Arsenide (GaAlAs), solid state, semiconductor diode lasers. The individual lasers comprising the array are capable of producing invisible infrared laser energy at either 810 or 980 nanometers depending upon the concentration of and construction of the epitaxial layers of the diode. The delivery system consists of a fiber optic cable with a nominal diameter of 400 microns. In all available configurations, that portion of the delivery system that is handled by the operator and/or in contact with the patient can be sterilized by heat, steam, gas, chemicals or combinations thereof. Activation of the laser occurs after the operator either selects or enters the parameters for the procedure, verifies and authorizes the parameters and depresses a footswitch which fires the laser. The footswitch is an on/off switch. The interface for input is electro-mechanical by way of a membrane switch pad. The laser operates in continuous wave or pulse mode which is selected and/or verified by the operator. A visible aiming beam is provided in the form of a visible red laser which emits not more than 5mW (user adjustable and verified) in the 640-650 nanometer wavelength range.
