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!
