The new methods and materials used in paraendodontic surgery lead to a higher success rates in dental practice. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of apicoectomy, retrofilling with MTA and the apical seal with Nd: YAG laser (10Hz, 150mJ, 1. 5 W, 60s). For these propose was used 40 teeth endodontically treated and cut by diamond bur at 90 ° with the long axis of the tooth. Four groups of samples was randomly assigned (n = 10): (A - apicoectomy, B - apicoectomy and Nd:YAG laser, C - MTA retrofilling, D - MTA retrofilling and Nd:YAG laser). The samples were embedded in epoxy resin and cut lengthwise first, then crosswise. SEM analysis showed a more homogeneous surface without apical sealing of dentinal tubules in groups B and D (p <0. 01). Horizontal and transverse marginal gaps were observed between dentin and filling material. The descending order of gap, was the group B (resection and irradiation Nd:YAG laser), followed by group A (apicoectomy), group D (MTA retrofilling irradiation and Nd: YAG laser) and at last group C (retrofilling MTA) (p <0. 01). The EDS analysis indicated a higher rates of phosphorus ions and lower of calcium in the groups treated by Nd:YAG laser. In conclusion, this research demonstrates the positive effect of application of Nd:YAG laser in apical sealing of the dentin surface, despite the dimensional effect that had on its association with the MTA.
