Erbium-doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (Er:YAG) Laser vs Conventional Ceramic Bracket Debonding: A Split-Mouth Clinical Trial

NCT: NCT07517601 · ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING

NCT IDNCT07517601
StatusACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING
Start Date2025-05-01

Brief Summary

This randomized split-mouth clinical trial evaluates enamel surface preservation, pulpal temperature variation, and patient-reported discomfort during ceramic orthodontic bracket removal using two Erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Er:YAG) laser parameter settings compared to conventional mechanical debonding. Pulpal temperature is monitored in real time using a thermocouple device. Enamel integrity is assessed using the Adhesive Remnant Index (ARI) under 40× magnification. The study aims to determine optimal laser parameters ensuring safe and conservative bracket removal.
