Photodynamic Therapy in Planktonic and Biofilm Cultures of <i>Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans</i>

Abstract

Photodynamic therapy-generated ROS inactivates A. actinomycetemcomitans both in planktonic and biofilm cultures, even in small concentrations of the photosensitizing agent, and it does not cause damage to fibroblast cells under the same conditions.
