Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Karla Bianca Fernandes Costa Fontes"
- Karla Bianca Fernandes Costa Fontes' research predominantly focuses on the applications and impacts of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) and low-level laser therapy (LLLT) in dentistry, particularly their effects on oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) and treatment outcomes following dental procedures such as molar extractions and caries treatment.
- Findings from her studies indicate that both aPDT and LLLT can significantly influence postoperative pain, edema, and the overall OHRQoL of patients, suggesting these therapies may enhance recovery and treatment efficacy in various dental contexts.
- Additionally, she has explored the clinical performance of restorative treatments in pediatric dentistry, emphasizing the combination of selective caries removal with aPDT, showcasing promising results in restoring primary molars and improving patient outcomes.
