Among today's professional endodontists, how common it would be to use lasers (especially Er: Yag Laser or something similar) for a root canal treatment?

I know lasers have pros and cons, but is the laser machine a must have? How many percentages of them using how often?

I'm no endodontist, but I've read a number of articles re lasers in endo. I don't see how the expense can be justified when simple irrigation techniques work more simply and cheaply. It just sounds hi-tech, like lasers for perio.
