Background: The objective was to evaluate the morphology of enamel and dentin irradiated with Er:YAG (2.94 μm) and CO~2~ (9.6 μm) lasers. Methods: Six groups were evaluated: G1 – CO~2~ irradiated enamel (3 W); G2 – CO~2~ irradiated dentin (3 W); G3 – CO~2~ irradiated enamel (7 W); G4 – CO~2~ irradia
Background and objectives: Laser radiation in the 2 m wavelength region is well-absorbed by water and has good transmittance through commercially available, low-OH quartz optical fibers which are generally acknowledged to have great potential for medical application in endoscopic and open surgery.
