Abstract
Examples of apparatus, methods, and compositions for endodontic treatments are described. The apparatus can include a fluid platform configured to substantially retain fluid in a tooth chamber during treatment. The fluid platform can help maintain fluid circulation in the tooth chamber as fluid flows into and out of the tooth chamber. The apparatus can also include a pressure wave generator configured to generate acoustic waves that can be used for cleaning root canals and tooth surfaces in the tooth chamber. Examples of pressure wave generators include a liquid jet, an electromagnetic energy delivery device, and an ultrasonic device. The fluid can include antiseptic or antibacterial solutions to assist in tooth cleaning. The fluid may be degassed to have a reduced dissolved gas content (compared to non-degassed fluids used in endodontic treatments), which may improve the effectiveness of the pressure wave generation or the cleaning.
Claims (18)
1. An apparatus for treating a treatment region of a tooth, the apparatus comprising:
a fluid platform comprising a fluid retainer configured to retain fluid in at least the treatment region of a tooth;
a fluid outlet to remove fluid from the treatment region; and
a pressure wave generator comprising a laser device configured to produce and pulse an electromagnetic beam of radiation;
wherein at least a portion of the laser device is coupled to the fluid platform so as to direct the electromagnetic beam of radiation into the fluid so as to produce pressure waves within the fluid, the produced pressure waves having sufficient energy to propagate throughout the treatment region to treat the tooth.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the laser device comprises a radiation source and an optical wave guide configured to propagate the electromagnetic beam of radiation from the radiation source to the fluid, and wherein the optical wave guide is the at least a portion of the laser device coupled to the fluid platform.
3. The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the radiation source comprises at least one of an Er:YAG laser source and a Nd:YAG laser source.
4. The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the radiation source is configured to generate electromagnetic radiation including a wavelength in a range from about 300 nm to about 3000 nm.
5. The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the radiation source is configured to pulse the electromagnetic beam of radiation with a pulse width in a range from about 10 us to about 500 μs.
6. The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the radiation source is configured to pulse the electromagnetic beam of radiation at a repetition rate in a range from about 1 Hz to about 10 kHz.
7. The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the radiation source is configured to pulse the electromagnetic beam with a pulse energy in a range from about 1 mJ to about 1000 mJ.
8. The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the optical wave guide comprises an optical fiber.
9. The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the optical wave guide comprises a distal tip configured to disperse the electromagnetic beam of radiation into the fluid in the treatment region.
10. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the distal tip comprises a conically-shaped tip.
11. The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a fluid inlet to provide fluid to the treatment region.
12. The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a vent in fluid communication with the fluid outlet, wherein the vent is configured to permit air to be entrained into flow of fluid removed from the treatment region via the fluid outlet, and wherein the vent is further configured to inhibit flow of air into the tooth.
13. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the pressure wave generator is configured to be disposed within the treatment region.
14. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the laser device comprises a beam scanning system.
