Efficacy of canal disinfectants Temoporfin, carbon nanoparticles, and Er: YAG laser on martens hardness, smear layer removal, and bond strength of glass fiber posts to canal dentin by Abdulaziz Alsahhaf

“…Group 2 (Er: YAG laser + 17 % EDTA) demonstrated superior smear layer removal across all sections, particularly in the apical third (1.94 ± 0.38). Push-out bond strength was highest in Group 2 (9.98 ± 0.14 MPa at the cervical level) and Group 4 (10.08 ± 0.21 MPa), while Group 1 showed a decrease in apical bond strength of (5.11 ± 0.19 MPa) Conclusion: CNPs and Er:YAG laser treatments, in comparison to Temoporfin and NaOCl, significantly increase dentin hardness and bond strength while reducing SL. …”
