(LLLT)Low-level laser therapy in acclerating orthodontic tooth

WUHAN, China - Aug. 11, 2021 - PRLog -- Low-level lasers are lasers that do not cause irreversible damage to biological tissues and do not cause a significant increase in local temperature, and have a spectral range of 600-1000 nm (infrared and near-infrared light), a power density of 5 mW/cm 2 -5W/cm 2 , an energy of 1mW-10W, an action time of 30s-60s per site and a number of sites of 1-15. 1-15. The low-level laser has a range of biomodulatory or biostimulatory effects on cells and tissues, including reducing inflammation, oedema and chronic joint disorders; accelerating soft tissue and bone tissue repair to promote wound and nerve healing; promoting hair growth; relieving pain and much more.
PIOON S3 dental diode laser 650nm can be adjusted to 0.1-0.5 watts and irradiated evenly over the surface of the lesion for 15-20 seconds, repeating the procedure 2 to 3 times until the patient is pain-free. Large lesions are treated continuously at intervals of 24 to 48 hours. This method is called LLLT (low-level laser therapy).
In addition, LLLT has a pain-relieving effect by reducing the release of arachidonic acid, which reduces prostaglandin E2 levels in the body; by inducing the release of the endogenous opioid neuropeptide beta-endorphin, which exerts a potent analgesic effect; and by stabilising the cell membrane potential, which blocks the activation and transmission of pain-related signals. This shows that LLLT (https://www.pioon.com/)is a promising non-invasive adjunctive intervention for accelerating orthodontic tooth movement.
