PORCIUNCULA, Mariana et al. Plasma technology in dentistry: literature review. Rev. Bras. Odontol. [online]. 2015, vol.72, n.1-2, pp. 100-103. ISSN 1984-3747.

This literature review aims to conduct a brief introduction to plasma, addressing what it is, how it is generated, its mechanism of action, as well as its use in dentistry, in different specialties. Although it is not yet routinely available for clinical use, studies have shown that the plasma, when used at room temperature, appears as a promising innovation featuring antimicrobial activity, positive effects in adhesiveness, tooth whitening and osseointegration, without causing oral tissue damage. These effects are related to application time and the gas used.

Palavras-chave : plasma gases; decontamination; adhesiveness; dentistry..
