 MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 45 human extracted premolars were obtained for the study. The samples were mounted in dental stone blocks having two “V” shaped notch on mesial and distal side of the mounted tooth. The samples were divided into three groups with 15 samples in each. The GROUP-A Control (without any surface treatment), GROUP-B (air abrasion with Al2O3 particles for 15 seconds) and GROUP-C (laser treatment for 5 seconds). Standardize tooth preparation was done on samples and lithium disilicate crowns were fabricated with a loop on occlusal surface. After surface treatment crowns were luted with self adhesive resin cement and pull out load test was performed in universal testing machine. The data was analysed using one way ANOVA TEST for multiple group comparison followed by Tusky HSD post hoc test. Level of significance was considered at 5% (p-value<0.05).
 RESULTS: The surface treatment considerably increased the retention of lithium disilicate crowns. The air abrasion group showed the highest microtensile bond strength values. There was significant difference between air abrasion and laser treatment groups.
 CONCLUSION: It was evident that microtensile bond strength was adequately increased after both the surface treatments (air abrasion with Al2O3 particles and laser treatment) and there was significant increase in bond strength with air abrasion with Al2O3 particles group when compared to laser treatment group.","PeriodicalId":100856,"journal":{"name":"King Saud University Journal of Dental Sciences","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135398840","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

 Material & Methods: Out of total 31 teeth, 18 teeth extracted from patients with chronic periodontitis and 13 teeth extracted from healthy individuals were examined. The teeth were stained and measurements of width of PFZ were made. Photomicrographs were taken at 20X magnification using a stereomicroscope & measurements were made using Image J software. The data obtained was subjected to statistical analysis.
 Results: A significantly wider PFZ was found on the surfaces of teeth of healthy group as compared to diseased group.
 Conclusion: Wider PFZ zone in healthy teeth may have a protective role preventing direct contact of bacteria with underlying periodontal ligament. Invasion of this zone during mechanical instrumentation needs to be avoided.
 Clinical Significance: The existence of plaque free zone has clinical implications. Instrumentation beyond the base of the pocket during SRP may upset the delicate balance existing at tooth sulcus/pocket interface.","PeriodicalId":100856,"journal":{"name":"King Saud University Journal of Dental Sciences","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135398555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

 A periodontal cyst (LPC) is considered a rare developmental odontogenic cyst, originates from epithelial rests in the periodontal ligament, and is a non-inflammatory cyst on the lateral surface of the root of a vital tooth.
