Vienna (pts019/10.02.2025/14:00) - A groundbreaking new micellar formulation is set to transform dental infection control, offering unparalleled effectiveness in eliminating biofilms from dental waterlines and equipment. This innovative technology, developed through extensive research by a private research institute and the Medical University of Vienna, enhances the antibacterial efficacy of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) by encapsulating it in plant-derived micelles, providing a superior solution for dental professionals worldwide.

A Game-Changer for Dental Practices

Dental professionals face persistent challenges in maintaining sterile waterlines and preventing bacterial contamination in dental units. Traditional biocides and disinfectants struggle to fully eliminate biofilms, which serve as reservoirs for harmful bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Legionella pneumophila—all known to cause severe infections in immunocompromised patients.

The newly developed micellar H₂O₂ formulation presents a revolutionary approach. By encapsulating hydrogen peroxide in micelles composed of plant-based surfactants, this formulation allows for deeper penetration into bacterial biofilms, ensuring rapid and complete eradication.

Proven Superiority Over Conventional Disinfectants

Scientific studies have demonstrated that a 10% solution of micellar H₂O₂ achieves a >8 log₁₀ bacterial reduction within just 5 minutes —a level of effectiveness unmatched by standard hydrogen peroxide or commercial biocides. Unlike traditional disinfection methods, which may require prolonged exposure or higher concentrations, the micellar formulation works at lower, less corrosive doses while maintaining exceptional antimicrobial potency.

Key Benefits for Dental Clinics

* Enhanced Biofilm Removal – Efficiently eliminates bacterial biofilms in dental waterlines and equipment.
* Faster Action, Lower Concentrations – Achieves superior disinfection with shorter exposure times and reduced chemical aggressiveness.
* Lower Corrosion Impact – Minimizes corrosion on pipes and connectors, preserving dental unit integrity.
* Environmentally Friendly – Breaks down into water and oxygen, making it a safe and sustainable choice for dental practices.
* Prevention of Healthcare-Associated Infections – Reduces the risk of pathogen transmission, ensuring a safer environment for both patients and staff.

A New Standard in Dental Hygiene

This breakthrough in micellar biocide technology has the potential to set a new industry standard for dental infection control. As the global dental community increasingly prioritizes patient safety and sustainable hygiene solutions, this innovative formulation provides an effective and eco-friendly alternative to traditional chemical disinfectants.
