Remineralization effect of NaF, NaF with TCP, NaF with CPP-ACP and NaF with CXP varnishes on newly erupted first permanent molars: A randomized controlled trial.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the remineralization effect of NaF, NaF with TCP, NaF with CPP-ACP and NaF with CXP varnishes on newly erupted first permanent molars using laser fluorescence (LF) method. The study was a randomized, double-blind, controlled trial with four parallel groups.

Methods: The study was carried out in 48 high caries-risk children (DMFS >8), aged 6-7 years with newly erupted permanent first molars (initial lesion with 13 < LF value<30).

Thermal, morphological, and spectral changes after Er, Cr:YSGG laser irradiation at low fluences on primary teeth for caries prevention.

The aim of this study was to determine the temperature increase in the pulp chamber and possible thermal effects on molecular structure of primary teeth during the irradiation with Er,Cr:YSGG laser. Primary central incisors were divided into three groups (n = 20). Labial surfaces in each group were irradiated by Er,Cr:YSGG laser within different power and frequencies as following groups: I: 0.

Effect of Er,Cr:YSGG Laser on the Prevention of Primary and Permanent Teeth Enamel Demineralization: SEM and EDS Evaluation.

To evaluate in vitro the effect of the erbium, chromium:yttrium-scandium-gallium-garnet (Er,Cr:YSGG) laser on resistance of primary and permanent human enamel to demineralization using water cooling and fluoride coapplication as variable parameters. Enamel specimens were prepared from extracted primary and permanent teeth ( = 225 each). The specimens were separated into 15 subgroups ( = 15/group) based on laser application at three different power settings (0.
