Abstract:Caries is a destructive condition
caused by bacterial infection that affects the hard tissues of the
teeth, significantly reducing the quality of life for individuals.
Photothermal therapy (PTT) offers a noninvasive and painless treatment
for caries, but the use of unsafe laser irradiance limits its application.
To address this challenge, we prepared nanoparticles of silver ion-doped
Prussian blue (AgPB), which was encased within cationic guar gum (CG)
to form the antibacterial PTT hydrogel CG-AgPB with a phot… Show more
