The Aseptim Plus system utilises Photo-Activated .Disinfection to eliminate all species of oral bacteria in the treatment of root canals, periodontal disease, peri-implantitis and caries. The Aseptim technology is supported by an extensive list of peer-reviewed, published, microbiological and clinical studies.
How does Aseptim technology work?
Aseptim technology is based on two components: a solution of dilute, pharmaceutical grade tolonium chloride (a vital stain) and red light of a specific wavelength (635 nm) to activate the Aseptim solution. Introduced into dental hard or soft tissue, the Aseptim solution selectively targets and tags all bacteria. When the solution is activated by the Aseptim light it releases singlet oxygen which ruptures the cell walls of bacteria, killing them in seconds. Aseptim solution selectively eliminates all bacteria and, unlike other methods of disinfection, does not affect the healthy surrounding tissue, nor does it stain soft tissue or tooth coloured restoratioN.
ADVANTAGES FOR DENTIST
- Aseptim Plus kills all bacteria associated with all types of oral lesions
- Aseptim Plus saves time and enables endo treatment in a single visit
- Aseptim Plus works only at the infection site, reducing the need for other local and systemic
antimicrobials
