Assessing daylight & low-dose rate photodynamic therapy efficacy, using biomarkers of photophysical, biochemical and biological damage metrics in situ
Low-fluence daylight photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been shown to reduce pain with similar efficacy of conventional treatments. Three objective assays were performed to assess efficacy of different light treatment strategies: PpIX photobleaching, STAT3 crosslinking, and keratinocyte damage. Of these metrics, STAT3 crosslinking and keratinocyte damage showed a strong correlation to the PpIX-weighted light dose. (Source: Photodiagnosis and Photodynamic Therapy)

Use of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy in the conservative clinical management of caries lesions on a permanent tooth
Dental caries is a multifactorial infectious disease caused by bacteria that colonize the oral cavity. Such microorganisms are capable of fermenting carbohydrates that lead to acid production and consequent dental demineralization. The partial removal of the carious tissues is an effective treatment alternative that is based on the concepts of minimal intervention. To perform this technique only manual instruments are used and no local anesthesia is administered, which favors the natural repair and preservation of the dental tissues [1].
