“…The limitations of the study were (1) the study was not blinded as no placebo was used, so there may have been a bias patient response and evaluation by the operator; (2) its design is single masked and a larger sample size could have been used; (3) there is no control group, hence comparison is difficult to assess and obtain accurate results; (4) a longer follow-up period would have been better suited to evaluate the long-term effects; and (5) there was no exact measure of the amount of laser energy delivered to a particular area. A scanning electron microscope study conducted by Patil and Gaikwad[ 17 ] showed the highest tubular occlusion with HAP powder plus diode laser and least with electrode, which is further confirmed with clinical studies and will be definitely beneficial for the treatment of patients.…”

“…However, diode laser showed the best results in reducing dentin hypersensitivity. Patil et al [27] analysed dentinal tubule occlusion in vitro by comparing the diode laser with or without hydroxyapatite and strontium chloride agents and observed highest dentinal tubule occlusion in a group treated with hydroxyapatite and diode laser combination. In our study, an 810 nm diode laser was applied for one minute and the occlusion of dentinal tubules was significantly more as compared to the control group.…”

Purpose:The aim of this study was to assess the effect of mouthwash, diode laser and their combination on dentin hypersensitivity(DH). Methods:Forty dentin specimens were enabled and exposed dentinal tubules were created in vitro. They are assigned into four groups; control group, mouthwash with 1.4% dipotassium oxalate, combination of the same mouthwash and 810 nm diode laser, only diode laser. The occlusion of dentinal tubules were then observed with SEM. Results:The analysis resulted with the occlusion of dentinal tubules in all treatment groups but the results were more prominent in the combined treatment group. The number of open dentinal tubules in 100µm was significantly more in control group(p<0.05). Conclusion:Dentinal tubule occlusion was achieved both by mouthwash with 1.4% dipotassium oxalate and 810 nm diode laser. However, the combination of both treatments resulted with the best outcome and can be used in patients with dentin hypersensitivity.

“…This study presents some clinical limitations, such as the use of dehydrated ex vivo teeth which may have interfered in the final results. Since the specimens were dehydrated, the penetration of AlGaAs laser may have been altered in relation to teeth in the oral cavity [17,28].…”

This study evaluated the effect of laser irradiation protocols using Thera Lase Surgery (TL), at 2.5 W (2.5) or 2.7 W (2.7), and Gemini (GE), at 1.2 W (1.2) or 1.5 W (1.5) of potency, on the root-end resection surface, in relation to external root temperature, roughness, and surface morphologic changes after the treatments, in the areas near to the root canal (RC) or external root surface (ER). Fifty teeth were endodontically treated and the root-end were resected 3 mm away from the root apex. The specimens were randomized into 5 groups (n = 10), according to the laser irradiation protocol: Control (CO-DW) without irradiation; (TL-2.5) Thera Lase Surgery, 2.5 W; (TL-2.7) Thera Lase Surgery, 2.7 W; (GE-1.2) Gemini, 1.2 W; and (GE-1.5) Gemini, 1.5 W. The external root temperature change was obtained through the difference between the highest value observed during the irradiation and the value at the beginning of the treatment. The surface roughness (µm) was analyzed by confocal laser microscopy and the apical surface morphology was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy, in RC or ER. The temperature change was similar between the irradiation protocols (p > 0.05). CO-DW and GE-1.5 provided the lowest surface roughness (p < 0.05), regardless of the analyzed area. TL-2.7 and GE-1.7 showed more uniform on apical resected morphology and a higher incidence of dentinal tubules occlusion, but only near the root canal (p < 0.05). Root-end resected surface submitted to TL-2.7 and GE1.7 irradiation protocols are more homogeneous and shown higher incidence of closed dentinal tubules near to root canal, despite providing a surface roughness.
