Importance
for DENTAL health
In dentistry, photobiomodulation is particularly relevant because of its ability to facilitate tissue regeneration processes and reduce inflammation, both of which are crucial to improving dental care outcomes and reducing recovery time for individuals.
Specific applications
in dentistry
Concrete examples
Photobiomodulation has proved highly effective in a number of dental situations. For example, it is used to accelerate healing after dental extractions, minimizing the risk of post-operative complications.
Case studies
Dentists using photobiomodulation report significant improvements in pain management and tissue healing. One study showed a 38% reduction in the inflammation marker PGE2 within two hours of application, facilitating rapid and effective recovery. These results were particularly beneficial for individuals undergoing regular treatments such as those for gingivitis or procedures involving dental implants.
