PHOTOTHERMAL THERAPY IN DÜSSELDORF

Antimicrobial photothermal therapy (PTT) is a minimally invasive treatment method for bacterial conditions like periodontitis. We use heat, laser light, and a dye to eliminate bacteria in gum pockets and along the gum line. In most cases, this mechanical cleaning reduces or eliminates the need for antibiotics.

EmunDo®

PTT using EmunDo® allows for safe and side-effect-free decontamination and disinfection, primarily targeting inflamed periodontal pockets and implants, using diode lasers (laser decontamination).

PTT (Photothermal Therapy) is recognised as one of the safest treatments for peri-implantitis and is endorsed by the American Association of Periodontology as a viable alternative to antibiotic therapy.

In addition to traditional laser procedures used in periodontal therapy, which reduce and alter bacterial flora, new techniques involve special indocyanine dyes that stain bacteria. These bacteria can then be gently and painlessly destroyed using laser light.

Dentcoat

Dentcoat/Perioshine therapy represents a significant breakthrough in dental care. Nanotechnology is used to infuse nanocrystals into the enamel and dentine structures of the teeth. These nanocrystals create surfaces that are almost mirror-smooth, significantly reducing bacteria’s ability to adhere.

This leads to a significant reduction in the daily accumulation of bacteria. This decreases inflammation symptoms and greatly simplifies overall dental care. The surface effect is observed on teeth, crowns, bridges, and even on implants.

Additionally, the natural teeth are subtly whitened during the process.
