Abstract: Halitosis is an unpleasant odour which originates from the breath.That is caused by dental infections, periodontal infections, carious teeth, tongue coating, improper oral hygiene and non-oral causes like infections of tonsillar area ,throat . LASER - Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation is widely used in dentistry and periodontics. Lasers are recognized as an adjunctive or alternative approach in periodontal and peri-implant therapy. Recently, lasers have shown effective results in treatment of oral malodour.
