This proposal aims to investigate the use of low temperature atmospheric pressure plasma (LTAPP) in Dentistry. The general aim is to develop protocols for the application of plasma and plasma activated liquid in vivo and ex vivo for diseases of dental interest and a portable equipment for clinical use. The specific aims are to develop effective protocols to the following relevant patholog…
Some infectious diseases represent a great challenge in Dentistry due to their increasing prevalence, low number of therapeutic options and/or increase in the antimicrobial resistance. Considering that the searching for new therapies is highly needed, this project aims to prospect innovative therapeutic alternatives, evaluating the applicability of low temperature atmospheric plasma (LTAP…

This work plan aims the characterization and optimization of a cold plasma jet operating in atmospheric pressure for microbial sterilization and application in live tissues. For achieving the goal the development of a robust, versatile, easily operated and totally safe device is needed in order to be used in patients without risk of electrical shock or burning. The group of plasma in Guar…
Traditional irrigation methods in Endodontics may have limitations because it is a complex and clinically challenging process since it is difficult to completely remove the biofilm because it does not reach certain regions of the root canal system due to anatomical issues. Studies report that conventional endodontic irrigants, despite demonstrating antimicrobial action, have toxic potenti…
Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) acrylic resins are the main material used in the manufacture of dental prostheses. However, this material has some limitations, mainly in relation to microbial adhesion that culminates in the formation of microbial biofilm, which can lead to infections such as denture stomatitis. Thus, biomaterials with antimicrobial properties become highly desirable in the …
The antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and tissue repair-inducing actions promoted by reactive species generated by the plasma and its low toxicity are promising characteristics that can be applied in the treatment of diseases in the dental areas. In this context, this proposal aims to investigate the applications of cold atmospheric pressure plasma (LTAPP) in Dentistry. The general objecti…

Tracheal stenosis cases tend to increase in the following years due to the prolonged airway ventilatory protocol that COVID-19 patients were submitted. The most common alternative to tracheal stenosis rehabilitation is the T-tube prosthesis implant, which has some limitations, such as biofilm formation. In recent years, cold plasma treatment has emerged as an attractive method for prevent…
The aim of this study is to evaluate the application of low temperature atmospheric pressure plasma (LTAPP) in the treatment of chemotherapy-induced mucositis. Commercially available plasma generating equipment (Kinpen") will be used for this, which is available at Indiana School of Dentistry. Organotypic models of oral mucositis will be treated with LTAPP for the determination of an effe…
