đź©ş Dr. Hany Featured in Bite Magazine: Tools of the Trade – Fotona LightWalker
We’re proud to share some exciting news: Dr. Hany has been featured in Bite Magazine in their “Tools of the Trade” series, where he discusses the Fotona LightWalker and how it supports advanced patient care.
A professional spotlight in Bite Magazine
Bite Magazine is a leading Australian publication for dental professionals, and their “Tools of the Trade” articles highlight technologies clinicians rely on every day. In Dr. Hany’s feature, he shares practical insights into why the Fotona LightWalker is a standout tool in modern dentistry and how its versatility can translate into a better experience for patients.
Why the Fotona LightWalker stands out
In the article, Dr. Hany explains that the Fotona LightWalker can operate at two wavelengths, allowing it to be used across a broad range of clinical applications depending on patient needs.
He specifically outlines how:
- Er:YAG can be used for both soft tissue and hard tissue procedures (for example, certain gum procedures and select hard-tissue applications).
- Nd:YAG is commonly used for soft tissue applications, including sophisticated gum treatments and cosmetic uses.
This flexibility is a big reason laser dentistry can be such a valuable option as it allows treatment approaches to be tailored with precision.
Featured use: NightLase for snoring
A key highlight of Dr. Hany’s article is NightLase, a non-surgical laser therapy that targets soft tissue in the back of the throat (where snoring vibrations can originate). In the feature, Dr. Hany describes how the treatment is designed to gently stimulate collagen and support tissue tightening—without cutting or bleeding.
He also notes that patients often describe the sensation as a warm feeling, similar to “a hot cup of tea.”
Important note: Results vary from person to person, and snoring can have different underlying causes. A consultation is the best way to determine whether NightLase (or any treatment) is appropriate for your situation.
