Violet and blue light-induced green fluorescence emissions from dental calculus: a new approach to dental diagnosis
Introduction Deposits of dental calculus when present either above the gingival margin or within periodontal pockets retain pathogenic microorganisms and their products, and have been linked to gingivitis and periodontitis.1,2 To ensure that clinicians are able to reliably detect calculus deposits, a range of special devices have been developed to augment traditional examination methods which r...
متن کاملUltraviolet-induced fluorescence: shedding new light on dental biofilms and dental caries
T he ultraviolet (UV) spectrum is traditionally divided into three UV bands: UVA (315-400 nm, also termed black light, long wave or near UV), UVB (280-315 nm, also termed middle UV responsible for the sunburn response), and UVC (200-280 nm, also termed short wave UV). Having the lowest photon energy of the three ultraviolet wavebands, UVA has little effect on microbial pathogens and virtually n...
متن کاملBrain Responses to Violet, Blue, and Green Monochromatic Light Exposures in Humans: Prominent Role of Blue Light and the Brainstem
BACKGROUND Relatively long duration retinal light exposure elicits nonvisual responses in humans, including modulation of alertness and cognition. These responses are thought to be mediated in part by melanopsin-expressing retinal ganglion cells which are more sensitive to blue light than violet or green light. The contribution of the melanopsin system and the brain mechanisms involved in the e...
متن کاملSilicon Nanocrystals with pH-Sensitive Tunable Light Emission from Violet to Blue-Green
We fabricated a silicon nanocrystal (NC) suspension with visible, continuous, tunable light emission with pH sensitivity from violet to blue-green. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images and X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern analysis exhibit the highly crystalline nanoparticles of silicon. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectra at different pH values,...
متن کاملBlue Light from Dental Resin Curing Unit Causes Light-Induced Vasocon- striction in Isolated Rat Aorta
Aims: Currently, the blue light of resin curing unit is frequently used in dental treatment. However, the influence of the blue light irradiation on oral tissue is not clear. The aim of this study was to elucidate the effect of dental blue light irradiation on vascular smooth muscle. Methods: Isolated rat descending aorta was suspended in a superfusion chamber and superfused continuously with K...
