OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the tensile bond strength of composite resin on enamel and dentine, treated with Nd:YAG laser before and after bonding procedures. BACKGROUND DATA: The use of laser radiation in dentistry is being developed day by day. One of the possible applications of dental lasers includes increasing the quality of self-etching bonding systems. METHODS: Forty-eight human teeth were used and separated into six groups: Group 1 (enamel control), Clearfil Liner Bond 2V (CLB 2V); group 2 (enamel), Nd:YAG + CLB 2V; group 3 (enamel), CLB 2V + Nd:YAG; group 4 (dentine control), CLB 2V; group 5 (dentine), Nd:YAG + CLB 2V; group 6 (dentine), CLB 2V + Nd:YAG. Tensile bond strength was performed. RESULTS: Enamel means (15,54) were lower than dentine means (20,38). Bond strength of laser before (15,73) was lower than laser after (20,65). Interaction results G1 x G3; G2 x G3; G4 x G1; G2 x G5 were statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: Tensile bond strength of composites reached with self-etching adhesive systems were greater in dentine than in enamel. The best moment for application of Nd:YAG laser is after the use of adhesive system. Self-etching adhesive systems tested in this study can be used together with Nd:YAG laser without compromising to adhesion to dentine.
