“…In all groups, a gold handpiece with a 600 μm quartz MZ6 tip (Biolased Technology, Biolase) was utilised in a non-contact mode, at a distance of 2 mm perpendicular to the veneer surface, using distilled and deionised water at a 60%–40% air to water ratio for irrigation. A pilot study was conducted to identify the optimal parameters, and the ensuing irradiating procedure was chosen based on the pilot results and previous studies, as shown in Table 1 [ 48 , 49 ].…”
