OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to determine the clinical usefulness of Er:YAG laser for cavity preparation in children.
BACKGROUND DATA
The conventional methods for cavity preparation instill fear and discomfort in pediatric patients. The Er:YAG laser is a new tool developed for cavity preparation; however, there are few reports of its clinical application.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A clinical evaluation using an Er:YAG laser was carried out using 32 subjects (with 16 deciduous and 19 permanent teeth) with ages ranging from 2 to 12 years. All cavities were restored with light-cured composite resin following the application of bonding agent, but without acid etching or primer conditioning.
RESULTS
During laser treatment, the pediatric patients were very cooperative and hardly complained of any pain, and no tooth showed undesirable effects during the 3-year period of observation.
CONCLUSION
It can be concluded from the results of this study that an Er:YAG laser would be a useful alternative method for cavity preparation for composite resin restoration in children.
目的
本研究旨在确定铒钇铝石榴石激光（Er:YAG激光）在儿童窝洞预备中的临床实用性。
背景资料
传统的窝洞预备方法会给儿童患者带来恐惧和不适。Er:YAG激光是一种用于窝洞预备的新型工具；然而，关于其临床应用的报道很少。
材料与方法
对32名年龄在2至12岁之间的受试者（包括16颗乳牙和19颗恒牙）进行了使用Er:YAG激光的临床评估。在应用粘结剂后，所有窝洞均用光固化复合树脂修复，但未进行酸蚀或底漆预处理。
结果
在激光治疗期间，儿童患者非常配合，几乎没有抱怨任何疼痛，并且在3年的观察期内没有牙齿出现不良影响。
结论
从本研究结果可以得出结论，Er:YAG激光将是儿童复合树脂修复窝洞预备的一种有用的替代方法。
