Aerosols generation using Er,Cr:YSGG laser compared to rotary instruments in conservative dentistry: A preliminary study
Background In restorative dentistry, the use of high-speed air turbine, which generates aerosols, can be associated with the transmission of airborne diseases. New laser technologies could be useful in reducing the amount of aerosols, but there is a lack of scientific research on this topic. Material and methods This is a descriptive study to analyze the amount of aerosols produced after class I cavity preparation using high-speed air turbine (group 1) and Er,Cr:YSGG laser with two different parameters (groups 2 and 3). Fluorescein dye was incorporated into the coolant reservoir in order to visualize the production of aerosols during each procedure. Tooth preparation was performed in a typo…
Post-endodontic pain evaluation after different intracanal laser assisted disinfection techniques. A Systematic Review
Post-endodontic pain (PEP) management is an important factor to be considered in endodontic treatment. Several risk factors have been described that can attribute to its appearance. Laser-assisted disinfection has been described by many authors for its an
