Abstract:
This paper points out each key parameter involved in laser welding and discusses the parameters' effects on weld microstructure and defects detected inside the weld. Solutions are proposed to adjust the parameters to provide an optimal dental assembly. Metallurgical effects as well as defects are briefly discussed. A welding procedure adapted to different compositions of dental alloys is proposed.
