Hygienic Condition of the Oral Cavity of Patients in the Treatment of Removable and Non-Removable Orthodontic Techniques and to Identify The Level Of Hygienic Knowledge and Skills

Abstract

Among the additional methods of diagnosing the initial forms of the carious process, modern devices that can cause fluorescence of the hard tissues of the tooth, which increases with enamel demineralization, deserve attention. It is known that fluorescence occurs if light having one wavelength hits a fluorescent material, which then emits light with a different wavelength, always shifted in the direction of the red spectrum according to the law of conservation of energy. In this regard, intact and caries-affected enamel fluoresces after absorbing light with different wavelengths.
