Effects of Er:YAG laser irradiation on human dentin: Polarizing microscopic, light microscopic and microradiographic observations, and FT‐IR analysis

The effects of Er:YAG laser irradiation on dentin have not been sufficiently investigated. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Er:YAG laser irradiation on dentin.
