Dr. Roos Jansåker's clean-bracket study assesses light-activated antibacterial treatment's efficacy in enhancing dental plaque control for adolescents with braces. The Lumoral device, utilizing PBM, aims to reduce plaque and gingival inflammation, potentially benefiting periodontal tissues. Despite PBM's positive effects in healing and reducing pain, its use in dentistry remains limited. The study highlights the challenges of oral hygiene with braces, including increased risk of caries and gingivitis, and the potential of Lumoral to mitigate these risks. The trial results are anticipated in early 2025.
