Abstract

To assess dentin/adhesive systems interface after dentin conditioning with Er:YAG laser. Twenty-four dentin half-disks were assigned to 3 groups: All Bond 2 (AB); Optibond Solo Plus (OP); and Clearfil Liner Bond 2V (CL), which were divided into three sub-groups, according to dentin surface treatment: Er:YAG laser; Er:YAG laser plus acid; acid solely. After the adhesive protocol, specimens were embedded in resin, sectioned, and prepared for SEM analysis. Each area was examined under 1,500× magnification to assess the hybrid layer. (AU)
