METHOD FOR OPTICAL CLARIFICATION OF ORAL MUCOSA Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC A61B1/24 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely to dentistry. Method involves impregnating fabric with a biologically compatible immersion agent to create optical transparency windows in the ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Immersion agent used is a mixture of glycerine with propylene glycol in concentrations, wt.%, 30/70 or 50/50 or in combination with water 55/35/10, which is impregnated with oral mucosa for 8–15 minutes. Using the invention enables to create three transparency windows in the ultraviolet region of the spectrum with the position of the center of the first transparency window 200±3 nm with width at half-intensity level 38±7 nm, second window — 283±4 nm with width of 39±8 nm and third window — 344±13 nm with width of 72±5 nm.

EFFECT: invention can be used for optical clarification of gingival mucosa for treatment and early diagnosis of dental diseases.
