The recent enormous progress in understanding of plasma physics and development of plasma jet has attracted focus on the application of plasma in medicine and dentistry. Active plasma ions, electrons, and photons have the ability to activate and control various biochemical procedures. Nonthermal plasma (NTP) is widely used for various therapeutic applications in health care. Particularly in dentistry, NTP holds big potential such as for bacterial inactivation, efficient sterilization, and treatment of dental caries. This review intends to provide information on potential NTP applications in dentistry.
近年来，在等离子体物理学理解和等离子体射流发展方面取得的巨大进展，已吸引了人们对等离子体在医学和牙科领域应用的关注。活性等离子体离子、电子和光子具有激活和控制各种生化过程的能力。非热等离子体（NTP）广泛应用于医疗保健中的各种治疗应用。特别是在牙科领域，NTP具有巨大潜力，如用于细菌灭活、高效消毒和龋齿治疗。本综述旨在提供有关NTP在牙科领域潜在应用的信息。
