Description
Post-implant infections and peri-implant mucositis are common complications that can compromise the success of dental implants. Conventional mechanical and chemical decontamination methods often fail to completely eradicate bacterial biofilms. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has emerged as a promising adjunctive technique that uses a photosensitizer and light energy to generate reactive oxygen species capable of destroying microorganisms
