Do erbium lasers promote changes in the tooth enamel during debonding of ceramic laminate veneers? A systematic review.

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 to facilitate the procedure, and its repercussions on tooth enamel have been investigated. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of erbium lasers for debonding ceramic laminate veneers without damaging the tooth enamel.

Effect of osteoblasts on osteoclast differentiation and activity induced by titanium with nanotopography.

Titanium with nanotopography (Ti Nano) favors osteoblast differentiation and attenuates the osteoclast inhibitory effects on osteoblasts. Because the interactions between nanotopography and osteoclasts are underexplored, the aims of this study were to evaluate the effects of Ti Nano on osteoclast differentiation and activity, and the influence of osteoblasts on osteoclast-Ti Nano interaction. The discs were conditioned with a mixture of 10 N HSO and 30% aqueous HO to create Ti Nano and non-conditioned Ti discs were used as control (Ti Control).
