[Purpose] The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of high-power Nd:YAG laser on Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacterial growth. [Materials and Methods] Seven samples of S. aureus and seven samples of P. aeruginosa were prepared in the microbiology lab, one used as a control sample and the remaining six samples used as experimental samples, which were irradiated by a high-power laser (LASERSIX ME, 15W) with a total dose of 500 and 700 J. The primary measure was the semi-qualitative assessment of turbidity and bacterial count; the turbidity was assessed 24 h after laser application. [Results] There was a significant decrease in turbidity in all experimental samples of S. aureus and P. aeruginosa after 24 h of high-power laser application for 500 and 700 J and a significant decrease in the colony-forming unit (CFU) value in both types, and there were no significant differences in turbidity and CFU when comparing 500 and 700 J. [Conclusion] A high power Nd:YAG laser was found to be an effective modality for inhibition of S. aureus and P. aeruginosa growth.
