A Comparative Study to Evaluate the Surface Quality of Erbium Dental Lasers with Conventional Bur Preparation Followed by the Microleakage Assessment of the Composite and Cerec Cad-Cam Restored Cavities
Author(s): Mudasser Iqbal*
The surface quality of the prepared tooth strongly contributes to the longevity of the filling material and protection
against caries. Restoration failure and development of incipient caries under the restoration are one of the major
problems we face in our old dental practice despite our utmost struggle. This problem was never addressed until
the introduction of modern technology that revealed the mystery behind the failure. With the new modern laser
technology, we can overcome the problem at ease. Dental hard tissue laser prepares the cavities through the process
called “Water Mediated Ablation”. It has the advantages over the conventional bur preparation by removing any
debris such as smear layer and bacterial colonies within the dentinal tubules. This paper therefore, is a comparative
study that examines the surface quality of the teeth cavities prepa.. View more»
