Abstract

Insufficient cleaning, the complex anatomy of the root canal system, inaccessible accessory canals, and inadequate penetration of irrigants through dentinal tubules minimizes the success of the conventional endodontic treatment. Laser-assisted endodontic treatment enhances the quality of conventional treatment, but each laser wavelength has its own its own limitations. The optimal parameters for the antibacterial efficiency of a new wavelength, 1940-nm Thulium Fiber Laser, were firstly investigated in this study. This paper comprises of two preliminary analyses and one main experimental study, presents data about thermal effects of 1940-nm laser application on root canal tissue, effective sterilization parameters for bacteria, Enterococcus faecalis, and finally the antibacterial effectiveness of this 1940-nm Thulium Fiber Laser irradiation in single root canal. Based on these results, the optimal parameter range for safe laser-assisted root canal treatment was investigated in the main experiments. Comparing the antibacterial effects of four laser powers on an E. faecalis bacteria culture in vitro in 96-well plates showed that the most effective group was the one irradiated with 1 W of laser power (antibacterial effect corresponding to a log kill of 3). After the optimal laser power was determined, varying irradiation durations (15, 30, and 60 s) were compared in disinfecting E. faecalis. Laser application caused significant reduction in colony-forming unit values (CFU) compared with control samples in the 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) group. The results of bacteria counts showed that 1 W with 30 s of irradiation with a 1940-nm thulium fiber laser was the optimal dose for safely achieving maximal bactericidal effect.
