چکیده

introduction: this study investigated the influence of erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (er:yag) laser on microhardness, chemical composition and subsurface morphology of dentin cavity walls. methods: forty sound human premolars were selected and randomly assigned into four groups. class v cavities were prepared either with an er:yag laser (groups 1 and 2; 15 hz, 250 mj for enamel, 10 hz, 200 mj for dentin) or with a high speed handpiece (groups 3 and 4). the specimens in groups 1 and 3 served as the control, whereas those in groups 2 and 4 were exposed to subablative laser irradiation following cavity preparation (10 hz, 50 mj). after bisecting the specimens, one half was subjected to microhardness assessment and the other half was evaluated by sem-eds analysis. results: microhardness was significantly greater in the specimens prepared by both ablative and subablative laser irradiation (group 2) than that of the bur-prepared cavities (groups 3 and 4) (p<0.05). the quantity of calcium ion was significantly greater in cavities prepared by the er:yag laser (groups 1 and 2) compared to that of the bur cavities (groups 3 and 4) (p<0.05). subablative irradiation improved microhardness and weight percentage of calcium ion in both laser and bur cavities, but the difference was not significant compared to that of the relevant control group (p>0.05). conclusion: cavity preparation with an er:yag laser could be considered as an alternative to the conventional method of drilling, as it enhances the mechanical and compositional properties of lased dentin, especially when combined by subablative irradiation.

Human dental enamel and dentin structural effects after Er:YAG laser irradiation.

UNLABELLED Ideally projected to be applied on soft tissues, infrared lasers were improved by restorative dentistry to be used in hard dental tissues cavity preparations--namely enamel and dentin. This paper evidentiates the relevant aspects of infrared Erbium laser's action mechanism and its effects, and characterizes the different effects deriving from the laser's beams emission. The criteria ...

Thermal alteration and morphological changes of sound and demineralized primary dentin after Er:YAG laser ablation.

The purpose of this study was to assess the influence of Er:YAG laser pulse repetition rate on the thermal alterations occurring during laser ablation of sound and demineralized primary dentin. The morphological changes at the lased areas were examined by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM). To this end, 60 fragments of 30 sound primary molars were selected and randomly assigned to two groups ...

Assessment of morphological changes and permeability of apical dentin surfaces induced by Nd:Yag laser irradiation through retrograde cavity surfaces.

The purpose of this in vitro study was to observe the morphological changes and apical dye penetration at apical dentin surfaces induced by Nd:YAG laser irradiation at different power settings with and without a laser initiator. Seventy five single rooted human maxillary anterior teeth were used. Following the establishment of the working lengths, the root canals were enlarged with step-back te...
