Quantifying the amount of carbonate removed in bovine enamel after irradiating with 9.3 micron CO2 laser Open
High power pulsed 9.3 µm CO2 laser irradiation at sub ablative fluences removes carbonate groups in Carbonated Hydroxyapatite (CHA) resulting in formation of pure Hydroxyapatite (HA) which is less soluble in acidic environments. The amount…

Effectiveness of carbonate removal and demineralization inhibition in primary teeth using a 9.3-μm carbon dioxide laser Open
Background: Studies on permanent dental enamel have shown that irradiation with a 9.3-μm carbon dioxide (CO2) laser can safely inhibit caries progression in vivo and carieslike lesion formation in vitro. The authors conducted a study to in…

Enhanced Enamel Whitening, Surface Hardness and Stain Resistance by 9.3-µm CO2 Laser Irradiation: An In-Vitro Pilot Study Open
Objectives: In vitro studies were performed to investigate the effects of irradiating incisor enamel with a 9.3 µm CO2 laser in enhancement of whiting, stain resistance and surface hardness. Methods: A 9.3 µm CO2 laser beam was used to irr…
