Conclusion: This ex vivo preliminary study, based on the enamel and dentine welding obtained by a 1070 nm pulsed fiber laser associated to the hydroxyapatite nanoparticles, may represent a new and original approach for the treatment of the fractured teeth, even if further studies will be necessary to confirm these results.
