Clinical comparative study of efficacy of Er:YAG laser for debonding different veneers

CONCLUSIONS: Er:YAG laser can completely debond lithium disilicate glass-ceramic veneers, and the debonding time depends on the transparency and thickness of the veneers. The lower translucent porcelain veneers (e.max LT) and thicker ones (1.0 mm-thick) had a longer debonding time. Moreover, Er:YAG laser does not damage the morphology and topography of the veneer and the teeth surface.PMID:38494964
