Abstract: A dental device for exposing teeth to electromagnetic radiation includes a carrier and at least one source of electromagnetic radiation attached to the carrier and oriented so that the electromagnetic radiation is emitted from the source to a surface of a tooth. The dental device may also include a power source internally or externally disposed with respect to the carrier, and may include a circuit for controlling radiation emitted from the source. The dental device may be used for whitening teeth, and dental hygiene in general. Related methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: An electromagnetic energy output device in the form of laser handpiece and a trunk assembly is disclosed. The electromagnetic energy output device includes a digital camera and electromagnetic energy waveguides for emitting illumination or excitation light energy to enhance user viewability of a target surface and signal analysis and to receive electromagnetic energy such as return excitation light. An image acquisition fitting routes images acquired at or in a vicinity of the distal end of the electromagnetic energy output device. The image acquisition fitting can include an attachable or clip-on element or set of elements. In other implementations, the image acquisition fitting may be securable, in whole or in part, within an interior of the electromagnetic energy output device.

Abstract: Mouthpieces having activated textured surfaces that can be implemented using repetitive movement mechanisms and energy (e.g., electromagnetic radiation) emitting sources are disclosed. The mouthpieces may be used to provide detection, treatment and management of conditions including tooth discoloration and periodontal disease. Implementations can include a low-profile mouthpiece or a mouthpiece covering only front sides of the upper and lower teeth. Other combinations may include full-mouth implementations suitable for simultaneously covering part or all of a patient's upper and lower rows of teeth. The activated textured surfaces may include a surface topography consisting of bristles.

Abstract: Output optical energy pulses including relatively high energy magnitudes and steep slope at the beginning of each pulse are disclosed. As a result of the relatively high energy magnitudes which lead each pulse, the leading edge of each pulse includes a relatively steep slope. This slope is preferably greater than or equal to 5. Additionally, the full-width half-max value of the output optical energy distributions are between 0.025 and 250 microseconds and, more preferably, are about 50-70 microseconds. A flashlamp is used to drive the laser system, and a current is used to drive the flashlamp. A flashlamp current generating circuit includes a solid core inductor which has an inductance of about 50 microhenries and a capacitor which has a capacitance of about 50 microfarads. The output optical energy pulses cut target surfaces by interacting with fluid that is located above, on and/or in the target surface. Methods are disclosed for therapeutically treating tissue with pulses of electromagnetic energy.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are described for controlling temperature of a fluid used with electromagnetic energy in medical and dental laser procedures. Received fluid is passed through a heat exchanger, and heat is added to or removed from the fluid depending upon a desired effect, which may be influenced by a temperature setting. Temperature of output fluid is sensed, and heating or cooling is controlled in order to maintain output fluid temperature in a desired range. Ultraviolet radiation is used to sterilize the fluid.
