Dental laser treatment apparatus

Abstract

Provided is a dental laser treatment apparatus which also facilitates sterilization and cleaning work in laser beam treatment during and after the treatment, is mentally and physically less stressfulto patients, and is moreover anticipated to provide quick and reliable therapeutic effects and allow for faster healing. The dental laser treatment apparatus is used for the treatment, for example, ofperiodontal disease using a laser beam and includes: an apparatus body which is provided with a laser beam generating device that generates a laser beam; a laser beam irradiation device which has anoptical fiber for supplying the laser beam generated by the laser beam generating device and a handpiece that is placed on a distal portion of the optical fiber and has an irradiation port for the laser beam; and a cleaning solution supply unit for ejecting a sterilizing cleaning solution from a sterilizing cleaning solution supply unit which has a supply pipe provided with the handpiece at a distal portion thereof and which is disposed in the apparatus body or separately therefrom. The dental laser treatment apparatus is characterized in that the sterilizing cleaning solution is an aqueous solution that includes a hypochlorous acid and hypochlorous acid ions.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a dental laser therapy device, which is a dental laser therapy device capable of treating teeth, oral cavity, sterilizing and cleaning the oral cavity, and quickly paralyzing (Japanese: blunt anesthesia). Background technique [0002] Dental laser treatment devices using laser light are known to be used for incision of the gums, paralysis treatment, etc. for the purpose of cleaning the oral cavity such as removing calculus and tartar in the oral cavity, or treating periodontal disease and tooth decay. Among them, in dental treatment using laser light, it is characterized by the fact that it can be treated without using the existing anesthesia using injections, pain without using surgical tools such as scalpels, and the amount of bleeding is lower than normal. There are many advantages such as less incision treatment and shorter treatment time. [0003] As a laser treatment device used in dental treatment, for example, ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, in order to efficiently perform laser beam treatment, it is necessary to remove the irradiated site, that is, the surface of the treated site, that is, the contaminated part such as protein, which covers the surface of the treated site.

In addition, after the laser treatment of the gums, the above-mentioned wounds of the laser light are closed immediately, so when cleaning, only the surface of the gums and teeth in the oral cavity are cleaned, and it is difficult to clean the inside of the periodontal pocket and the inside of the gums , and there is also the problem of slow recovery after treatment
