Effect of Er, Cr:YSGG laser enamel etching with varying power output and irradiation time on the shear bond strength
BACKGROUND: Laser etching addresses the disadvantages of conventional acid etching technique, such as enamel decalcification and formation of white spot lesions. The aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare the shear bond strength (SBS), adhesive remnant index (ARI), and the surface char...
