Effects of CO2, Er:YAG, and Nd:YAG laser treatments on shear bond strength of resin cement to zirconia by Rahab Ghoveizi, Amirhosain Jafarbeigi, Maziar Mir, Abolghasem Mohammadi, Sara Tavakolizadeh

“…Pairwise comparisons revealed no significant differences between the sandblasted group and the Nd:YAG laser groups (2 W, 2.5 W, 3 W), the CO₂ laser group (6 W), and the Er:YAG laser group (6 W) (P > 0.05).Conclusions: Sandblasting with Al₂O₃ particles yielded the highest bond strength of resin cement to zirconia. Alternatively, Nd:YAG at all tested parameters, and Er:YAG, and CO₂ lasers at specific settings could be used to enhance bond strength to zirconia. …”
