Marginal quality in enamel and dentin after preparation and finishing with an Er:YAG laser.

چکیده
PURPOSE To find the most appropriate Er:YAG laser parameters for an optimal marginal adaptation of Class V restorations in enamel and dentin. METHODS Six saucer-shaped mixed Class V cavities were prepared in each of the eight experimental groups with an Erbium:YAG hard laser (Opus Duo) on extracted human molars in near contact mode with a conical 800 microm sapphire tip under continuous water spray by using different pulse energy and pps (pulse per second) parameters. The cavities were restored under the simulation of dentin fluid with Clearfil SE Bond and Clearfil APX PLT composite applied in two layers and light-cured. Marginal adaptation in enamel and dentin was quantified before and after simultaneous thermal (5-50-5 degrees C, 2 minutes each) and mechanical (max. 49N; 1,200,000 cycles) stresses by using the replica technique in a SEM under x200 magnification. RESULTS With the exception of dentin margins before loading, significant differences for percentages of "continuous margin" and "enamel fractures" were detected before and after loading (P < 0.05, ANOVA, Student's t-test). A pulse energy of 100 mJ both on dentin and enamel was found optimal for finishing and smoothing the preparation margins after cavity preparation with 500 mJ or more.

Study of microleakage at class V cavities prepared by Er:YAG laser using rewetting surface treatment.
OBJECTIVE This study was conducted to analyze microleakage in Class V cavity preparation, using rewetting (or not) just after burr or Er:YAG laser preparation of enamel and dentin walls in permanent teeth. BACKGROUND DATA Several studies reported microleakage around composite restorations when cavity preparation was done or treated by Er:YAG laser. As the hybridized laser is removed when this...

متن کاملEffect of Er:YAG Laser on Shear Bond Strength of Composite to Enamel and Dentin of Primary Teeth
OBJECTIVES Bond strength of composite resin to enamel and dentin of primary teeth is lower than that to permanent teeth; therefore, it may compromise the adhesive bonding. New methods, such as laser application have been recently introduced for tooth preparation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of tooth preparation with bur and Er:YAG laser on shear bond strength of composi...
متن کاملShear Bond Strength of Nanocomposites to Dentin Substrate Treated with Er:YAG Laser Followed by Two Different Bonding Systems
Background and Aim: Preparation of tooth structure by laser systems produces a surface with different characteristics. Therefore, selecting an appropriate bonding system is necessary to achieve the maximum bond strength. The aim of this study was to compare the bond strength of Adper Single Bond 2 adhesive and Single Bond Univer-sal to dentin prepared by bur or laser. Materials and Methods: ...

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, 2...
