Abstract

Objective

The aim of this study was to compare the effects of different pulse modes of Er:YAG laser on shear bond strength (SBS) of orthodontic brackets bonded with self-etching primers (SEP) and phosphoric acid etching.

Materials and methods

A total of 120 human mandibular third molars were randomly assigned to 3 groups of 40 specimens depending on the bonding procedure to be used. The groups were divided into two subgroups according to the pulse mode of the erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Er:YAG) laser irradiation as medium-short pulse (MSP) mode and quantum-square pulse (QSP) mode at 120 mJ, 10 Hz, 1.2 W. In each subgroup, the mesio- or distobuccal tooth surfaces were randomly assigned as experimental or control sides. After surface preparation with different modes of Er:YAG laser on experimental side, whole buccal tooth surfaces were treated with phosphoric acid etching or two different SEPs. Then metallic brackets were bonded with Transbond XT (3 M Unitek, Monrovia, CA, USA) or Kurasper F (Kuraray, Okayama, Japan). SBS values and the amount of adhesive remaining on the tooth after debonding were assessed. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to evaluate the changes in mean SBS between groups resulting from laser etching, followed by post hoc test of Tukey.

Results

There were statistically significant differences between the experimental and control sides of all groups (p < 0.05).

Conclusion

Laser etching with QSP and MSP modes increases the SBS of metallic brackets and Er:YAG laser irradiation with QSP mode increases the SBS of SEPs.
