"“with PAD, we obtain a field of high level disinfection throughout the root canal without the potential risks inherent in the use of hypochloride irrigations, and this is achieved safely and comfortably for both the patient and the clinician.” "

"“PAD Plus is used routinely in our practice to ensure better outcomes for endodontic, prosthodontic,implant and conservative treatment. we have found it particularly useful for patients in pain where our experience has shown a remarkably rapid reduction in such symtoms after endodontic treatment. we also use PAD prophylactically on high risk patients prior to complex restorative treatment and have had very positive results.” "

"“PAD is a genuine scientific innovation. it provides the dentist with creater confidence of a successful treatment outcome and patients appreciate the enhanced level of care with reduction in pain.” "

"“PAD Plus provides us at granta dental with a rare opportunity to offer patients a technological innovation of elegant simplicity and staggeringly little side effects. it is a reassuring value added technique to improve our clinical outcomes in dental conditions where infection control is the primary objective of treatment. photo activated disinfection is the type of responsible clinical solution that the 21st century patients are seeking for their dental care.” "

"“Gives more security in root canal treatment. disinfection of the root canal with aseptim now enables the flight crew to be back in the air on the day of treatment; this was not previously possible due to the risk of re-infection.” "

"I am a dentist practicing in dubai with 30 years experience and i have used PAD for around two years and treated around 1500 patients with it. i have noticed that the patients were very comfortable and did not go through any pain while being treated by PAD. i also assured the patients that there would be no post-operative pain. i feel very confident with this product and impressed by the results. i follow up most of the cases every three months and most of the cases are deep caries and a few root canals. this product is a great benefit to my clinic and i am a very proud user of PAD technology.

"PAD Plus is a cost effective and profitable way to treat periodontal disease. it has revolutionized the way the practice works and has enabled us to achieve highly predictable results even in previously unsuccessful or complex cases. in my opinion it works better than any other antimicrobial adjunct currently available."

"According to my clinical experience, the PAD Plus photo activated disinfection process is an effective technology to achieve consistent disinfection in root canal therapy. marrying the PAD technology with state of the art mechanical and chemical root canal preparation and disinfection technologies may raise the predictability of one session treatments even in cap cases.

"“There is the impression of faster healing and less post-operative pain after endodontic treatment of apical periodontitis with PAD Plus. scientific study is ongoing.” "

"...and does PAD make life easier? There’s no question that it does! PAD enables me to do more single visit endodontics. It (PAD) is the future. We can’t go back. Every day I have patients in my chair telling me that a piece of their tooth has been weakened by too much invasive drilling and undercutting. PAD is a significant step forward towards minimally invasive dentistry."

"...less intervention with the patient particularly in the sense that you’re not bombarding them with antibiotics all the time. PAD allows you to short-circuit that using Photo-Activated Disinfection to deal with the localised infection and it does work in root canal treatment."
Dr Irwin Wright

"PAD can deliver the following benefits for dental treatment: * less tooth material is removed, so if fillings are needed they can be smaller, leaving stronger, healthier tooth. * drilling is reduced and an anaesthetic may be avoided * decay is less likely to recur because the removal of bacteria is more effective so fillings and crowns will last longer. * root canal treatment can often be avoided when the infection is removed from a deep filling. * gentler but effective removal of bacteria from teeth can make root canal treatment more comfortable and more effective. * infected teeth in children can be treated painlessly allowing the tooth to be kept until it is shed naturally without use of antibiotics or risk to the underlying developing tooth. * treatment is painless. There is no sensation caused by the PAD procedure;for example, heat, vibration or pain. Indeed where less tooth material is removed, drilling is reduced and an anaesthetic may be avoided."
