Evaluation of the effect of etching with ytterbium fiber laser on the bond strength, color stability, and fracture analysis of lithium disilicate ceramics to bovine teeth: an in vitro study
The shear bond strengths of lithium disilicate ceramics, whether treated with YFL or hydrofluoric acid, were found to be comparable. These findings suggest the potential utility of 1070 nm YFL for ceramic etching, supporting the need for further investigation in dental applications.
