The clinical success of restorative materials depends upon a good adhesion with the dentinal surface to resist various dislodging forces acting within the oral cavity. Shear bond strength is the resistance to forces that slides restorative material past tooth structure. The Er, Cr:YSGG pulsed laser irradiation may be used to prepare enamel, dentin, cementum, and bone effectively and cleanly without leaving a smear layer.
