Comparing the Effectiveness of GLUMA and 940 nm Laser for Improving Crown Retention with Self-Adhesive Cement.
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Statement of the Problem: The retention of dental crowns plays a pivotal role in their long-term success and maintenance. According to the ongoing controversy about the effect of GLUMA desensitizer and diode laser on the retention of full metal crowns, this study seeks to investigate the effectiveness of two different methods in enhancing the bond strength of full-metal crowns. Purpose: This study was developed to compare the effect of 940nm diode laser and GLUMA desensitizer on the bond strength of full-metal crowns cemented by self-adhesive resin cement (RelyX U200). Results: < 0.05). Conclusion: Results of this study showed that GLUMA desensitizer had a positive effect, and 940nm diode laser had no effect on the retention of crowns cemented by self-adhesive resin cement.
