Dental Applications of Cold Atmospheric Plasma
Journal Title: International Journal of Contemporary Medical Research - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
Matter is mostly thought to exist in liquid, solid, and gaseous state. Apart from these three there is another category of matter called as plasma. Out of all the states of matter, plasma is found to exist in the highest quantity, that is what the stars and galaxies are made up of. Plasma could also become a new way to prepare cavities without causing pain. It is capable of inactivating bacteria and it is not inflammatory to the tissues, which makes it a helpful tool in removing dental caries and treating them.
