Publication Metadata only Can We Improve the Laser Etching with the Digitally Controlled Laser Handpiece-Xrunner?(2017-06-01T00:00:00Z) YILANCI, HİLAL; Usumez, Serdar; Usumez, Aslihan; YILANCI, HİLALObjective: The aim of this study was to compare the shear bond strength (SBS), enamel surface characteristics, and the adhesive remnant index (ARI) scores of different etching methods. Background data: Laser etching changes the physical characteristics of the enamel surface and these alterations hold promise for the conditioning of enamel for bonding procedures. A new Er:YAG laser handpiece is unique in its ability to digitally control size, shape, and depth of irradiated enamel area. Materials and methods: Ninety-eight premolar teeth were used in this study. Eighty of 98 teeth were divided into four experimental groups of 20 teeth each for SBS testing: (1) 37% phosphoric acid, (2) manual Er:YAG laser (120mJ, 10Hz, and 1.2W), (3) manual Er,Cr:YSGG laser (45mJ, 50Hz, and 2.25W), and (4) digitally controlled Er:YAG laser (Xrunner; 100mJ, 10Hz, 1W). The SBS values and ARI scores were recorded. Eighteen teeth were used to evaluate the surface morphology with scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy after etching and following debonding and restoration. Results: Mean SBS value was 7.75 +/- 2.5MPa for Xrunner and 8.11 +/- 3.5, 9.47 +/- 3.3, and 7.11 +/- 3.7MPa for the acid, Er,Cr:YSGG, and Er:YAG groups, respectively (p=0.148). However, the acid etching group demonstrated significantly higher ARI scores (p<0.001). Conclusions: All etching methods caused enamel surface irregularities and were effectively restored to its original gloss. Laser etching was found to be an alternative to acid etching; however, the clinical success should be evaluated with further studies.Publication Metadata only The effects of water flow rate on shear bond strength of self etch resin cement to dentin surface after Er, Cr: YSGG laser etching(2017-01-01T00:00:00Z) KURT, AYŞEGÜL; YILANCI, HİLAL; YÖNDEM, İSA; Usumez, Aslihan; YILANCI, HİLALThe aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of water flow rate on the morphological features of dentin and shear bond strength (SBS) of self-etching resin cement after Er, Cr: YSGG laser etching. Dentin specimens obtained from extracted human third molars were randomly assigned to four groups (n = 23), including one that received no laser irradiation (control-group D) and three others with different laser parameters: 2.25 W, 50 Hz, 60% air with water flow rates of 19 mL/min-100% water (group A), 2.25 W, 50 Hz, 6.75 mL/min-50% water (group B), and 2.25 W, and 50 Hz, 2.75 mL/min-25% water (group C). The morphological features of each group were examined with scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The SBS of resin cement disks (Panavia F2.0, Kuraray; Tokyo, Japan) (3 mm in diameter and 2 mm in height) to the dentin specimens was measured using a universal testing machine at a cross head speed of 0.5 mm/min. Bond strength values were analyzed with one-way ANOVA/Tukey tests. There were no significant differences between the SBS values of groups A and B (p > 0.05). However, the SBS values of these groups were significantly higher when compared to groups C and D (p < 0.001). Er, Cr: YSGG laser application with water flow rates of 6.75 or 19 mL/min resulted in better dentin surface alterations and increased the SBS of self-etching resin cement to dentin.
