    Effect of Er:YAG and diode lasers in the adhesion of blood components and in the morphology of irradiated root surfaces
    2004 - THEODORO, L.H.; GARCIA, V.G.; ZEZELL, D.M.; HAYPEK, P.; BACHMANN, L.; SAMPAIO, J.E.C.
    The aim of this study was to evaluate in vitro the adhesion of blood components on root surfaces irradiated with Er:YAG (2.94??m) and GaAlAs Diode (808 nm) lasers and these effects on irradiated root surfaces. It was obtained 100 samples of human teeth. They were scaled and divided into five groups of 20 samples each: G1 (Control); G2 -Er:YAG laser (7.6 J/cm2); G3 - Er:YAG laser (12.9 J/cm2); G4 -Diode laser (90 J/cm2) and G5 - Diode laser (108 J/cm2). After these treatments were conducted, 10 samples of each group received a blood tissue, and the reminiscent 10 samples did not receive such treatment. After laboratorial treatments the samples were analysed by scanning electron microscopy. The results have shown that there were no significant differences between the Control Group and the groups treated with Er:YAG laser (p=0,9633 and 0,6229); G4 and G5 were less effective than the Control Group and the Er:YAG laser groups (p<0,01). No proposed treatment increased the adhesion of blood components in a significant way when compared to the Control Group; although the Er:YAG laser did not interfere in the adhesion of blood components it caused more changes on the root surface, while the Diode laser inhibited the adhesion.

    Changes in chemical composition and collagen structure of dentin tissue after erbium laser irradiation
    2004 - BACHMANN, L.; DIEBOLDER, R.; HIBST, R.; ZEZELL, D.M.
    The erbium laser light has a great affinity to the water molecule, which is present in great quantity in biological hard tissues. The objective of this work is to identify chemical changes by infrared spectroscopy of irradiated dentin by an Er:YAG - 2.94μm laser. The irradiation was performed with fluences between 0.365 J/cm2 and 1.94 J/cm2. For the infrared analysis a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer was used. After the irradiation were observed: loss of water, alteration of the structure and composition of the collagen and increase of the OH- radical. These alterations can be identified by a decrease of the water and OH- band between 3800-2800 cm-1, bands ascribed to collagen structure between 1400-1100 cm-1. The results show that the erbium laser changes the structure and composition of the organic matrix, OHradical and the water composition in the irradiated dentin.
