Research Abstract |
The present study focused on the effect of ultrashort pulses emitted by a FEL, and a high-speed camera was used to observe the aspects of bovine dentin transpiration using the FEL tuned to the same wavelength as Er:YAG laser (2.94μm). The ejected transpiration particles were also observed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the depth of transpiration was compared with that obtained by an Er:YAG laser. Additionally, irradiation was performed on bovine dentin with varying FEL irradiation wavelengths of 2.50, 2.94, 3.50, and 4.00μm, the depth of transpiration was measured, and increases in temperature at the irradiated site (irradiated side) and the opposite side of the sample directly under the irradiated site (dental pulp side) were also measured by a radiation thermometer. The results showed that dentin could be ablated effectively by using a laset, having a pulse width shorter than the thermal relaxation time and an approximate wavelength of 2.94μm.
