Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have found that inactivation of the strepococcus mutans is possible by the treatment of a tooth using an Er:YAG laser and water, and that concentration of hydrogen peroxide increases by Er:YAG laser irradiation to water. Although we could not have definite evidences for proving generation of plasma in water by Er:YAG laser, we have clarified that OH radicals are generated through a dissociative recombination of hydronium ions and low energy electrons even after excitation period according to the results of our numerical simulation of gas-phase plasma reactions including water vapor.
