Photodynamic therapy (PDT), which is widely used today for treating many conditions—including oral and dental diseases—is a two‑step treatment. It combines light energy with a photosensitizing agent (such as methylene blue, toluidine blue, or indocyanine green) to eliminate bacteria. When irradiated with a low‑level laser at a specific wavelength, the photosensitizer is activated and generates reactive oxygen species (ROS). These highly reactive species cause irreversible damage to bacterial DNA and cell membranes, thereby eliminating bacteria and other microorganisms.
Green+I is an antibacterial dye solution containing indocyanine green at a concentration of 1 mg/ml. When activated by low‑level laser irradiation, it effectively eliminates both Gram‑positive and Gram‑negative bacteria locally. In addition, using this product as an alternative to antibiotics for oral and dental infections may help reduce issues related to antibiotic resistance and the emergence of new resistant strains.
Blue*M and Blue*T contain methylene blue and toluidine blue, respectively, each at a concentration of 100 µg/ml.
