Increased fluoride uptake in human dental specimens treated with diode laser
Villalba-Moreno J et al. - The hypothesis of this study was the fact that diode lasers can increase the fluoride uptake in dental structures. The main objectives were: (1) to evaluate the effect of diode laser-NaF varnish combination on binding fluoride to dental enamel in an in vitro model and (2) to analyse outer enamel surface changes produced by the laser energy. After NaF enamel varnish and laser irradiation at different levels of energy, specimen surfaces were examined by environmental scanning electron microscopy [more...]
