Treatment with cold atmospheric plasma (CAP)
"Innovations are an alliance with the future." © Prof. Dr. Hans-Jürgen Quadbeck-Seeger (1939). Many diseases in the mouth are caused by bacteria or viruses.
In these cases, cortisone-containing drugs, antibiotics or disinfectant solutions are frequently used. These therapies are effective, but they also have side effects.
Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) is a painless and highly efficient way to successfully treat these diseases. CAP uses so-called "free radicals" and is therefore comparable to the efficiency of the body's immune cells. The immune cells also use "free radicals" to fight bacteria very successfully. So far, no negative effect on human cells has been observed in any study, but the efficiency of disinfection has been observed. CAP is currently used very successfully for the treatment of infections of multi-resistant germs and non-healing wounds (e.g. decubitus).
It is also used in the food industry to fight against norovirus without affecting the nutritional value of the product.
We are implementing these advantages for the first time in regenerative dentistry in order to treat, for example, aphthae, herpes or other poorly healing wounds in a minimally invasive but highly effective way. It is also used in caries- and root canal treatment.
More infoWith this treatment we increase the adhesive bond strength of our fillings and treat initial caries in order to avoid a filling.
Deep caries is treated stepwise with CAP to gently disinfect infected dentin.
With the help of CAP we can fight fungi, spores and viruses. This is hardly possible with conventional means. As OZON is also produced by KAP, this can additionally support the healing process (e.g. alveolitis). With CAP no heat is produced, therefore we use it for gentle whitening of your teeth (plasma bleaching).
KAP fulfils all criteria of a minimally invasive therapy. The benefits in the treatment of caries are the reduction of the risk of root canal treatment and the increase of the adhesive bond strength of the subsequent filling.
We treat oral mucosa diseases such as herpes, fungal infections or aphthae without the side effects of conventional medicines. CAP supports each therapy of our dental treatments with the aim to improve the prognosis in the long term and to maintain your health. We are the first to offer the gentle whitening of your teeth with CAP.
