Qualitative evaluation of hybrid layer formation using Er:YAG laser in QSP mode for tooth cavity preparations

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the thickness and qualitative characteristics of the hybrid layer after two cavity preparation methods, using Er:YAG laser in QSP mode and conventional carbide burs. Additionally, two different adhesive techniques were investigated using etch-and-rinse and self-etch adhesive systems. Sixty sound human third molars were used and were randomly divided into four groups (n = 15). In the first two groups, large (4 mm length, 3 mm wide, and 3 mm deep) class I cavities were prepared using Er:YAG laser (2.94 μm) in QSP mode, while in the other two groups, the cavities were prepared using carbide burs. After cavity preparations, two different adhesive techniques with GLUMA® 2 Bond (etch-and-rinse) and Clearfil™ Universal Bond Quick (self-etch) were applied. For the qualitative evaluation of the formed hybrid layer, photomicrographs were taken using SEM, and elemental semi-quantitative analysis was performed using EDS to confirm the extent of the hybrid layer. One-way ANOVA was applied to verify the existence of statistically significant differences, followed by Tukey test for post hoc comparisons (Bonferroni corrected), and the level of significance was set at a = 0.05. The laser-treated groups exhibited higher hybrid layer thickness than bur-treated groups (p < 0.001). Between the laser-treated groups, etch-and-rinse technique presented higher hybrid layer thickness than self-etch technique (p < 0.001), while between the bur-treated groups, no significant differences were detected (p = 0.366). Er:YAG laser cavity preparations in QSP mode may be advantageous for adhesion of composite restorations, but more data are necessary to confirm its clinical effectiveness.
