[Hardening of dental tissue by CO2 laser radiation]
Practica Odontologica
|March 1, 1989
Abstract:
A study was conducted to test the effects of CO2 laser irradiation on dental tissue. It was found that hardening of the dental tissue occurs. This was observed qualitatively by direct observation and by X-ray radiography. The hardening produced was also quantitatively measured using a hardness-meter on Rockwell scale.
