Abstract
We have reported that the bond strengths to Er:YAG laser-irradiated dentin increase by application of GLUMA®Desensitizer. However, the long-term bond strength to Er:YAG laser-irradiated dentin treated with GLUMA®Desensitizer is not reported. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of GLUMA®Desensitizer on long-term tensile bond strength of a self-etching adhesive system to Er:YAG laser-irradiated dentin.In conclusion, it was suggested that the application of GLUMA®Desensitizer to Er:YAG laser-irradiated dentin was useful for the long-term bond strength of a self-etching adhesive system.
