Morphological alterations in dentine after mechanical treatment and ultrashort pulse laser irradiation

The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the morphological changes that occur in dentine after femtosecond laser irradiation and after mechanical treatment. The duration of the laser pulse is an important parameter, because within the time frame of the pulse heat diffusion plays a very impo...
