Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy (aPDT)

The therapy system

The therapy system for the execution of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy comprises the following components:

HELBO® TheraLite Laser

  • Diode laser with integrated power regulation and innovative fibre optics
  • Short therapy duration due to maximum light output
  • Mobile – independent of mains supply (battery operated), ergonomically perfect, small and light, therefore comfortable to use
  • Therapy-oriented and innovative: the HELBO®3D Pocket Probe, the HELBO®3D Endo Probe and the HELBO®2D Spot Probe (patent protection)
  • Assured chain of action through the detailed correlation of the optical/physical properties of the HELBO® system components!
  • With only ONE laser all indications can be covered through variable fibre optics.

HELBO® Fibre optics:

HELBO® 3D Pocket Probe: For infected pockets

  • For three dimensional, even exposure
  • With overload protection through flexible design
  • Angled for optimum access to all areas, even distal
  • Sterile disposable product to prevent spread of bacteria and as a safety device for the necessary light output

HELBO® 3D Endo Probe: for infected root canals

  • For three dimensional, even exposure over the total length of the root canal
  • Good access to the canal through flexible constitution of the fibre optic, even in the curved canal
  • Angle-forming for optimal access to all areas, even distal
  • Sterile disposable product to prevent spread of bacteria and as a safety device for the necessary light output

HELBO® 2D Spot Probe: For infected surfaces

  • For two dimensional, point focused exposure
  • With spacing piece and active area marked to ensure optimum power density
  • Sterile disposable product to prevent spread of bacteria

HELBO® Blue Photosensitizer

  • Bacteria-selective, light-active dye solution
  • Sterile
  • Glass applicator with angled soft-touch cannula
  • Quick diffusion in problematic areas (e.g. the biofilm!) through intense concentration
  • Simple and safe to use
  • Indispensable for the effectiveness of aPDT with the HELBO® TheraLite Laser
  • Without systemic side effects

HELBO® Endo Blue

  • Bacteria-selective, light-active dye solution
  • sterile
  • Glas applicator with cannula
  • Flowing ability & diffusion attitude are harmonised specifically to endodontics
  • Quick diffusion in problematic areas (e.g. the tubuli) through intense concentration
  • Simple and exact to dose and to apply
  • Indispensable for the effectiveness of aPDT with the HELBO® TheraLite Laser
  • Without systemic side effects

HELBO® Endo Seal

  • Light-hardening sealing material for safety of the crown area while using the dye in endodontics

HELBO® T-Controller: T = Time & Therapy Control

  • aesthetic
  • functional
  • easy handling
  • supports the correct application of the therapy
  • optimal time and therapy control for a secured therapy success​​​​​​​

HELBO® CHARGER SET

  • Both the HELBO®TheraLite Laser and the HELBO®T-Controller are run on long-life high-performance batteries. This enables flexible use of the devices independent of the mains power supply.
  • The service package includes the charger with corresponding inserts, plus 1 battery for the HELBO®T-Controller and 3x2 batteries for the HELBO®TheraLite Laser.


Guaranteed user safety through CE-certification under the MPG!
