Argon and Nd:YAG lasers for caries prevention in enamel.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Nd:YAG and argon laser irradiations on enamel demineralization after two different models to induce artificial caries.

Background Data: It is believed that the use of the high-intensity laser on the dental structure can lead to a more acid-resistant surface.

Materials And Methods: Twenty-one extracted human third molars were sectioned into tooth quarters.
