The aim of this study was to compare temperature increases produced by a well-known equipment, the high-speed handpieces, with a relatively new instrument, the Er:YAG laser (350 mJ/10 Hz). Thirty-five bovine mandibular incisors, which were reduced to an enamel/dentin thickness of 2,5 mm, were used. Cavity preparation was done till a depth of 2, 5 mm. A thermocouple was placed to read the temperature inside of the pulp chamber. Analysis was performed in these groups: I - high-speed handpiece without water-cooling (n=10); II - high-speed handpiece with water-cooling (n=10); III - Er:YAG laser without water-cooling (n=5); IV- Er:YAG laser with water-cooling (n=10) Group III had only 5 teeth because it was impossible to properly make the cavity preparations by the laser equipment without water cooling. The temperature increases were recorded in a computer linked to the thermocouples and the data of the groups I, II and IV were submitted to Dunn's multiple comparison test (p<0,05). The medium temperature increases were: 11,64ºC for group I, 0,96ºC for group II, 40,86ºC for group III and 2,9°C for group IV. There were no statistical differences between groups lI and IV, and these were different from group I. The cavity preparations made by the high-speed and the laser equipment generated very similar heat increases under water-cooling. The water-cooling is essential to avoid aggressive temperature increases, both when using the high-speed and the laser equipment, and with laser it is especially necessary for ablation of enamel

Multiple gingival recessions may cause mainly dentinary sensibility and aesthetic alterations. The subepithelial graft is a mucogingival technique which can be used to treat multiple gingival recessions. In this case report the Erbium YAG laser was applied to promote radicular surface decontamination, an important step to reach reinsertion of the gingival tissues on exposed radicular surface.

A Nd:YLF/KGW Raman laser has been investigated in this work. We have demonstrated CW output powers at six different wavelengths, 1147 nm (0.70 W), 1163 nm (0.95 W), 549 nm (0.65 W), 552 nm (1.90 W), 573 nm (0.60 W) and 581 nm (1.10 W), with higher peak powers achieved under quasi-CW operation. Raman conversion of the 1053 nm fundamental emission is reported for the first time, enabling two new wavelengths in crystalline Raman lasers, 549 nm and 552 nm. The weak thermal lensing associated with Nd:YLF has enabled to achieve good beam quality, M-2 <= 2.0, and stable operation in relatively long cavities. (C) 2012 Optical Society of America

Dentine hypersensitivity (DH) is a painful condition and is a clinical challenge due to the different treatment strategies available. High-intensity lasers have been studied as a possible option. The aim of this randomized, controlled, double-blind clinical study was to evaluate the effects of Er:YAG and Er,Cr:YSGG lasers on DH. The study group comprised 28 subjects who met the inclusion criteria. A visual analogue scale was used to quantify sensitivity before treatment as baseline, immediately before and immediately after treatment, and 1 week and 1 month after treatment. Teeth were assigned to four groups: group 1 control (no treatment), group 2 Er:YAG laser treatment (2 Hz/32.4 mJ/5.9 J/cm(2)), group 3 Er,Cr:YSGG laser treatment (0.25 W/4.4 J/cm(2)), and group 4 Er,Cr:YSGG laser treatment (0.50 W/ 8.9 J/cm(2)). Data were collected and submitted to statistical analysis for both evaporative (air) and mechanical (probe) stimulation. For both the air and probe stimulation no differences were observed between the pretreatment sensitivities. With the evaporative stimulus, the pain level immediately after treatment was reduced; however, after this the values remained stable. Irradiation with the Er:YAG laser was associated with the lowest level of pain. With the mechanical stimulus, group 4 showed the most pronounced decrease in pain immediately after treatment; however, by the end of the study, pain levels had increased. Groups 1, 2 and 3 showed a reduction in pain that was significantly different from that in group 4 after the 4 weeks of clinical follow up. Based on the results and within the limits of this study, it can be concluded that none of the laser treatments studied was capable of completely eliminating pain, but the Er:YAG and Er,Cr:YSGG lasers are suitable for the treatment of DH.

The study analised microscopic wound healing of incision made with Er:YAg laser with three different tips. In six Rattus norvegicus, incision was made with Laser Er-YAG (KeyLaser) using tips 2051, 2055 and 2056. The animals were killed at 7 e 14 and the sites of incision are photographed in this time. The parts containing the incision area were prepared for microscopic analysis, performing sections of 7µm and staining with haematoxylin and eosin. Zone of tissue ablation, zone of thermal necrosis, the presence and character of inflammatory cell infiltrate and wound healing were measured. The 2051 tip produced faster and defined edges of the wound. To create wound 1.30 mm in depth lasers tips required at last five passes within the same line of incision. Microscopic analysis shows no difference with use of three different laser tips

L’attività sperimentale presentata in questo elaborato riguarda lo studio di una particolare applicazione che impiega la tecnologia laser per la lavorazione di materiali compositi ed è stata interamente svolta, in particolar modo nella sua parte operativa, presso i laboratori della Facoltà di Ingegneria a Bologna. Il lavoro di tesi ha come obiettivo fondamentale la valutazione degli effetti che i parametri di processo possono avere sulla qualità risultante nel procedimento di ablazione per i materiali compositi. Per questa indagine sono stati utilizzati campioni piani (tutti identici tra loro) con rinforzo in fibra di carbonio e matrice in resina epossidica, i quali sono stati lavorati con un laser Nd:YAG (λ = 1064 nm) funzionante in regime continuo. L’idea alla base dell’intera attività sperimentale è stata quella di realizzare una ablazione ottimale, rimuovendo dai campioni esclusivamente la resina (in maniera locale) e tentando, allo stesso tempo, di ottenere il minimo danneggiamento possibile per le fibre. Le prove effettuate non costituiscono naturalmente un punto di arrivo, bensì rappresentano piuttosto un punto di partenza per acquisire informazioni preliminari che potranno consentire, nel prossimo futuro, di proseguire con il perfezionamento del processo e la messa a punto dei parametri, al fine di conseguire una lavorazione che dia risultati effettivamente ottimali ed interessanti per l’eventuale applicazione industriale.

The space-qualified design of a miniaturized laser for pulsed operation at a wavelength of 1064 nm and at repetition rates up to 10 Hz is presented. This laser consists of a pair of diode-laser pumped, actively q-switched Nd:YAG rod oscillators hermetically sealed and encapsulated in an environment of dry synthetic air. The system delivers at least 300 million laser pulses with 50 mJ energy and 5 ns pulse width (FWHM). It will be launched in 2017 aboard European Space Agency’s Mercury Planetary Orbiter as part of the BepiColombo Laser Altimeter, which, after a 6-years cruise, will start recording topographic data from orbital altitudes between 400 and 1500 km above Mercury’s surface.
