Cold atmospheric plasma-future of dentistry

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 8

Abstract

Plasma is known as ‘fourth state of matter’. Plasma is two types: thermal and non-thermal or cold atmospheric plasma. Electrons and heavy particles (neutral and ions) present at the same temperature in Thermal plasma. Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) is said to be non-thermal because it has electron at a hotter temperature than the heavy particles that are at room temperature. This review demonstrates different application of plasma in dentistry like effect of plasma on dental implant, dental cavity decontamination, sterilization, root canal disinfection, tooth whitening, polymerization etc.
