LightWalker lasers are designed for dental perfectionists and all forward-thinking professionals who wish to upgrade their daily dental experience with new treatment possibilities that only the latest laser technology can offer. LightWalker’s patented QSP (quantum square pulse) mode represents an important technological advancement, improving the laser's interaction with dental tissues for optimized patient comfort, speed and clinical results.- Universal Laser System
- TwinLight® Treatment Concept
- Fast efficient cutting with unmatched patient comfort
- Precise tissue surgery with simultaneous disinfection
- Third Generation ASP Technology
High Performance Dentistry, Without Compromises
LightWalker’s state-of-the-art design, engineering and patented technologies have made it the world's fastest-cutting Erbium laser, outperforming even rotary burs in terms of speed and precision, while simultaneously offering a wide range of highly effective hard and soft tissue treatments.
LightWalker’s easy-to-select operating modes and advanced laser-beam delivery systems enhance the precision and performance of each laser treatment for optimal clinical efficacy..
Broad Spectrum of Effective and Easy-to-Perform Applications
From conservative dentistry, endodontics and implantology to periodontics and soft-tissue surgery, LightWalker lasers offer the most comprehensive list of clinical applications of any dental laser made today. LightWalker is also perfect for cosmetic dental procedures such as Fotona’s gentle but highly effective TouchWhite™ laser tooth whitening. And with an optional aesthetic upgrade, the LightWalker AT / AT S model can even be used for facial skin treatments, such as wrinkle reduction.

LightWalker Features
Complementary Wavelength Combination – for Enhanced Results
Each LightWalker model is a technologically advanced system built from the ground up with the most state-of-the-art and reliable technologies available. LightWalker’s "gold standard" dental laser wavelengths (1064 nm and 2940 nm) are produced by solid state crystal laser sources. With the choice of two complementary wavelengths (in terms of their effect on tissues) LightWalker comes very close to being a true “optimal” laser. Virtually all laser-assisted dental treatments can be performed with either the highly absorbed Er:YAG laser wavelength or the deeply penetrating Nd:YAG laser wavelength.
Latest Pulse Technologies – for Exceptional Performance
Fotona’s proprietary VSP (Variable Square Pulse) and SMOOTH technologies allows practitioners to precisely control the laser pulse duration and its fluence according to the needs of the specific application, at the simple touch of a button.
Fotona’s patented QSP (Quantum Square Pulse) mode allows the laser to ablate more efficiently and with greater precision. The improved ablation efficacy of QSP mode indicates that more of the laser energy is used for cutting and less is absorbed by the interfering debri or sub-ablation threshold of the surrounding dental tissues.
LightWalker is also able to produce exceptionally low-energy laser pulses optimized to generate a clinically effective photoacoustic effect for endodontic treatments using the photon-induced photoacoustic streaming treatment protocol.
Exceptional Laser Power – for the Fastest Working Speed
Up to 20 W of Er:YAG laser power provide an exceptionally wide range of fast, safe and effective treatment options. In addition to dental applications, LightWalker also offers the power and capability to provide a broad range of aesthetic treatments using the same laser system.
Ultimate Peak Powers – for Improved Effectiveness
Up to 1000× higher pulse power compared to diode lasers provides for improved tissue selectivity and treatment effectiveness.
Green Pointing Beam – for Improved Visibility
Introduced with dental surgeons in mind, this optional feature for LightWalker AT S helps provide improved visibility over standard red-pointing beams when performing oral surgery.
Online Energy Monitoring – for Safety Without Compromise
LightWalker systems come equipped with laser pulse monitoring systems based on DET (Dual Energy-meter Technology) to assure 100% accuracy. Combined with Fotona’s EFC (Energy Feedback Control) technology it assures consistency of laser pulse output for unrivaled safety during the entire lifetime of the product.
OPTOflex® Articulated Arm – for Weightless Operation
The LightWalker AT's unique and patented OPTOflex® articulated arm is perfectly balanced during use, making Er:YAG handpieces feel completely weightless in your hand. OPTOflex® allows for a full range of motion and a maximum degree of control as it makes maneuvering handpieces much smoother, improving treatment precision and ease.
Titanium Handpiece Technology – for Unmatched Durability
All LightWalker models feature advanced titanium handpieces that provide robust durability for constant handling and frequent sterilization. Lightwalker's tipped and tipless Er:YAG handpieces have an integrated air/water spray with adjustable water temperature for additional patient comfort, as well as a quick disconnect system for greater convenience and easier sterilization. More than 15 specialized handpieces are compatible with LightWalker systems.
Automatic Handpiece Detection – for Ease of Use
The LightWalker AT / AT S can be equipped with two Nd:YAG handpieces, providing two different fiber diameters constantly available at your disposal. What's more, LightWalker AT has an automatic handpiece detection system which knows exactly which handpiece you have picked up and automatically restores the last-saved parameters for that handpiece.
Over 40 Preset Treatments – for Ultimate Simplicity
The LightWalker touch-screen offers a simple & intuitive menu of pre-programmed laser treatments. You pick the treatment and the laser automatically sets your optimum starting parameters. With an optional dermatological handpiece, the AT / AT S model can even perform aesthetic skin treatments such as wrinkle removal and skin rejuvenation (where permitted by local practice regulations).
