Purpose Removal of ceramic restorations and appliances can be time consuming, invasive,
and inconvenient. Erbium lasers offer an alternative noninvasive method for debonding of …

The longevity of ceramic laminate veneers can be influenced by several factors, which can
result in the need for a removal process. Laser removal has emerged as a good alternative …

Introduction: The objective of this study was to compare in vitro the resistance and type of
failure in the debonding of lithium disilicate veneers with four different thicknesses using an …

Objectives To investigate changes in the optical and mechanical properties of novel zirconia
ceramics applied in dentistry after Er: YAG laser debonding and to evaluate the feasibility …

Various clinical techniques such as removal kits, ultrasonic tips, burs, and drills, have been
used for fiber post removal in endodontically treated teeth. In most clinical cases, the dental …

Background: New applications in laser technology in aesthetic restorative dentistry merit
further research. This study compares the debonding strength and failure mode of …

Objective To determine the effectiveness of different pulse durations (PD) and the water/air
(W/A) cooling ratio of the Er: YAG 2940 nm laser that are required for debonding porcelain …

This study compared the laser and rotary removals of prefabricated zirconia crowns in
primary anterior and permanent posterior teeth. Sixty-two extracted teeth were prepared for …

Statement of problem The process of removing ceramic veneers is difficult, time consuming,
and invasive. However, although lasers should provide a straightforward method for the …

The objective of this study was to evaluate how erbium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (Er:
YAG) laser debonding treatment affects the optical and mechanical properties of dental …
