ABSTRACT:
A light application unit for a combined photodynamic diagnosis and photodynamic therapy of non-malignant diseases of a parodontium and a tooth of a living being having administered a pharmaceutical preparation allowing the photodynamic diagnosis and the photodynamic therapy comprises a light source, a focusing unit for focusing light emitted by the light source, at least one element arrangeable in a light beam path of the light, and at least one wave guide for transmitting the light from the light source to a distal emitting end, the wave guide is configured rigidly in at least a distal handling end section thereof and being curved in a distal end section.
