Remineralization effects of Er,Cr:YSGG and/or bioactive glass on human enamel after radiotherapy—an in vitro study

Efficacy of different remineralizing agents on primary teeth exposed to therapeutic gamma radiation: An in vitro randomized control study

“…Concerning group III (diode laser), which showed the least increase in mineral content, this was in agreement with those of ( Antunes et al, 2004 ) who stated that reduction in the mineral content after laser application is due to volatilization caused by heat generation. However, they used high-power Nd: a YAG laser, while this study utilized a low-power diode laser ( Klarić et al, 2023 ).…”

“…Bioactive-Glass has been studied on a wide scale in the field of remineralization due to its enormous capacity to form hydroxyapatite. When it comes in contact with saliva, calcium, sodium, phosphorus, and silicates bind to the enamel surface initiating a remineralizing effect ( Klarić et al, 2023 ). Evidence suggests that laser irradiation can change the makeup of enamel and enhance its resistance to caries because it promotes remineralization and the intake of fluoride ions ( Soltanimehr et al, 2019 ).…”
