Abstract

A new method of hard tooth tissues laser treatment is described. The method consists in formation of regular microdefects on tissue surface by mid−infrared erbium laser radiation with propagation ratio M²<2 (Er-laser microprocessing). Proposed method was used for preparation of hard tooth tissues surface before filling for improvement of bond strength between tissues surface and restorative materials, microleakage reduction between tissues surface and restorative materials, and for caries prevention as a result of increasing microhardness and acid resistance of tooth enamel.
