The use of a Novel Bioactive Glass in Air Polishing for Subgingival Root Debridement

Abstract

To determine the abrasiveness of using a novel bioactive glass (BioMinâ„¢ F) in air polishing for subgingival root debridement by measuring dentine loss and compare this value to the reference powders. Furthermore, to confirm the tubular occlusion effect of air polishing with the bioactive glass using Scanning Electron Microscopy techniques.
