Effect of Three Wavelengths of Diode Laser on the Efficacy of Bleaching of Stained Teeth

Abstract: Objectives: Light irradiation and heat have been used to accelerate the process of tooth bleaching. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of conventional bleaching compared to laser-bleaching using three different wavelengths of diode lasers. Materials and Methods: In this in-vitro experimental study, 40 extracted human central incisors were immersed in a coloring solution made of tea, coffee, and cola for 21 days. The L*, a*, and b* color parameters were measured before and after the immersion using s… Show more

“…Laser therapy was first applied in dentistry in the 1960s and has been widely used in clinical practice, such as in treating dentine hypersensitivity, caries removal, and bleaching [7][8][9]. The erbium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Er:YAG) laser has attracted attention in dentistry in recent years.…”

“…The safety of Er,Cr:YSGG laser‐assisted in‐office tooth bleaching has been confirmed in previous studies 18–20 . Diode lasers emit in various wavelengths and some of them have also been utilized for in‐office tooth bleaching (810, 940, and 980 nm) 21 . In case of diode lasers, the bleaching gel contains titanium dioxide or pigments which are dispersed throughout the gel to absorb laser energy from the laser beam and convert it into thermal energy 22 .…”

“…22 In particular, as the wavelength increases from 800 to 980 nm, penetration depth decreases and laser energy is more absorbed by water and less by the pigments. 21 Incessant research and development in the field of material science and digital dentistry has led to the development of composite materials with innovative compositions and improved properties such as bis-phenol A-free (BPA-free) composite resins, and resin-matrix computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) ceramics. 23,24 The most common co-monomer system has been based on bis-phenol A glycidyl methacrylate (Bis-GMA) and triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) as base and co-monomer, respectively.…”

“…The daily absorbance values of the cells cultured on the scaffolds of the three groups were analyzed by one-way ANOVA using Graphpad prism 5. 0 software, and the absorbance of the same number of cells cultured in normal culture medium was used as the control group, and the results showed that the absorbance values of each well were not statistically different (p > 0.05) [40]. It indicates that the cell proliferation rate is comparable in the three solvent groups, with increasing culture time.…”
