Summary

This research introduces a home-use dual-light antibacterial medical device and its possible added value as part of traditional dental self-care. The aim of the study is to investigate, using a randomized cross-over study design, whether home-use dual-light antibacterial treatment is more effective in reducing residual biofilm than mechanical, traditional cleaning of teeth and interdental spaces.
