Article Synopsis
- Enterococcus faecalis is a highly resistant bacterium commonly found in root canal infections, prompting research into innovative disinfection methods like photoinactivation with visible light.
- This study focused on how femtosecond laser irradiation affects vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis V583, assessing the impact of wavelength and energy density on bacterial viability and growth.
- The results revealed that wavelengths of 430 nm and 435 nm at a fluence of 1000 J/cm significantly reduced the bacteria's viability by nearly 98% and emphasized the need to optimize laser parameters for effective bacterial inactivation.
