Blue Photosensitizer, Red Light, Clear Results: A Review of the Adjunctive Periodontal Treatment with Methylene Blue in Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy

2025-05-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> /Objectives: The standard and effective therapy for treating periodontal disease is scaling and root planing (SRP). However, the adjunctive use of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has been investigated as a promising approach to enhance periodontal health. This therapy involves the activation of a photosensitizer (PS) through laser, leading to the transfer of energy or electrons to t...
