Effect of CO2 laser irradiation on shear bond strength and enamel surface roughness after ceramic brackets removal: in vitro study

This study aimed to evaluate the shear bond strength and surface roughness of the enamel after removal of ceramic brackets with CO 2 laser. Thirty extracted premolars were randomly assigned to three groups ( n = 10): Untreated enamel (GI), Conventional debonding (GII), and CO 2 l...
