Photodynamic Therapy as an Alternative Antimicrobial Modality for Oral Infections

Journal of Environmental Pathology, Toxicology and Oncology, 2006
Infections of the mouth are mostly local in nature, but if left untreated, may lead to potentially life-threatening conditions. Mouth infections, such as caries, pulpitis, periodontal disease, and oral mucosal infections, such as mouth ulcers, are readily accessible and thus well suited to photodynamic therapy (PDT).

Strategies for targeted antimicrobial photodynamic therapy

SPIE Proceedings, 2009
The photophysics and mechanisms of cell killing by photodynamic therapy (PDT) have been extensively studied in recent years, and PDT has received regulatory approval for the treatment of a number of diseases worldwide. As the application of this treatment modality expands with regard to both anatomical sites and diseases, it is important to develop ...

A solution to antimicrobial resistance: antimicrobial photodynamic therapy

Modern medicine is exploring new approaches to combat infections associated with antimicrobial resistance. Among these, antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) stands out for its ability to target pathogenic microbes effectively. This review focuses on methods to enhance aPDT on planktonic cells and biofilms.

[Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy: current view].

Vestnik otorinolaringologii, 2007
Growing resistance of bacteria to wide-spectrum antibiotics gave rise to a search for new approaches to antimicrobial therapy. Photodynamic therapy (PT) was proposed for fighting against infections. It combines effects of a photosensitiser and visible light. PT produces reactive oxygen species able to kill cells. High response to PT was achieved in the
