Als der amerikanische Physiker Theodore Harold Maiman 1960 den ersten funktionstüchtigen Laser vorstellte [1], befürchtete er, so lautet eine häufig zitierte Anekdote, „eine Lösung für ein noch zu suchendes Problem“ entwickelt zu haben. Vor 50 Jahren bestanden erhebliche Zweifel daran, ob sich je eine praktische Nutzanwendung für Laserlicht finden ließe. Heute sind solche Zweifel zwar längst ausgeräumt, aber die Suche nach sinnvollen Anwendungsmöglichkeiten für den Laser geht weiter, auch in der Zahnmedizin.
