Effect of low power Er:YAG laser irradiation of CAD-CAM resin-based composites on resin bonding.
American Journal of Dentistry 2024 April
PURPOSE: To investigate the effect of painless low-power Er:YAG laser irradiation of conventional and polymer-infiltrated ceramic network (PICN) type CAD-CAM resin-based composites (RBCs) on resin bonding.
METHODS: An Er:YAG laser system, phosphoric acid etchant, universal adhesive, RBC, and two types of CAD-CAM RBC block were used. Microtensile bond strength, fracture mode, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations of bonding interfaces and CAD-CAM surfaces, and surface roughness of ground and pretreated surfaces were investigated. As pretreatment methods, low-power Er:YAG laser irradiation and air-abrasion with alumina particles were used.
RESULTS: The effect of low-power Er:YAG laser irradiation of CAD-CAM RBCs on bonding to repair resin varied depending on the type of CAD-CAM RBCs.
CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The low-power Er:YAG laser irradiation of the conventional CAD-CAM RBCs was shown to be effective as a surface pretreatment for resin bonding, while the laser irradiation of PICN-type CAD-CAM RBCs was not effective.
