Device for detecting bacterial infestations on teeth, has one or more light emitting diodes that produce light in wavelength range from approximately 380 to 425 m., in particular from 390 to 420 m.

摘要

The device has one or more light sources for generating light radiation that can be directed towards one or more teeth to be examined to generate fluorescent radiation on the teeth if they have a bacterial infestation. The light sources are one or more light emitting diodes (5) that produce light in the wavelength range from approximately 380 to 425 m., in particular from approximately 390 to 420 m. An independent claim is also included for the following: (a) a method of detecting bacterial infestations on teeth.
