Abstract of the Disclosure An apparatus for removing dental enamel and dentin. This apparatus is also capable of cutting soft tissue. The apparatus includes a laser which, when activated, produces a laser pulse having a wavelength of between 2,0 and 3,0 microns, a beam diameter in the range of 50-2,000 microns, a pulse duration of between several picoseconds and several milliseconds, an energy level of between .1 and 100 millijoules per pulse, and pulse repetition rates from lpps to 200 pps. The pulse is focussed on the dental enamel or dentin thereby reaching high enough energy densities to vaporize the material. In the case of soft tissues, a special tip is used to concentrate the laser on the tissue so that cutting action can be easily executed.
