Comparative Assessment of 638-nm Diode Laser Photobiomodulation Against Chemical Remineralizing Agents for Primary Caries-Affected Dentin: Mechanistic Investigation of Photothermal Effects on Bonding Substrate Quality

Applying remineralizing agents such as sodium fluoride, casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate, or theobromine to caries-affected dentin in primary molars enhances shear bond strength and microhardness before restoration with a self-etch adhesive.
