Abstract
The microbial biofilm is an important factor for human infection. Finding effective
antimicrobial strategies should be considered for decreasing antimicrobial resistance
and controlling the infectious diseases. Treatment of infected canal systems may not
be able to remove all bacteria and so bacterial persistence after treatment may occur.
Application of antibacterial nanoparticles may be a potential strategy to improve the
elimination of bacteria from the canal. Furthermore, mechanism of action and
applications of photodynamic therapy and Photon-induced photoacoustic streaming
(PIPS) and GentleWave system was reviewed.
