Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study is to investigate the mechanism by which low-level laser stimulation promotes the proliferation of intraepithelial hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) in wounds. This research aims to expand the applications of laser treatment, enhance wound repair methods, and establish a theoretical and experimental foundation for achieving accelerated wound healing. METHODS The experimental approach involved irradiating a cell model with low-level laser to assess the proliferation of HFSCs and examine alterations in the expression of proteins related to the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. A mouse back wound model was established to investigate the effects of low-level laser irradiation on wound healing rate, wound microenvironment, and the proliferation of HFSCs in relation to the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. RESULTS The research findings indicate that low-level laser light effectively activates the Wnt signaling pathway, leading to the increased accumulation of core protein β-catenin and the upregulation of key downstream gene Lef 1. Consequently, this regulatory mechanism facilitates various downstream biological effects, including the notable promotion of HFSC proliferation and differentiation into skin appendages and epithelial tissues. As a result, the process of wound healing is significantly accelerated. CONCLUSION Low levels of laser activates the Wnt signalling pathway, promotes the regeneration of hair follicle stem cells and accelerates wound healing.

Le JRM, Wu JH, Jaw FS, Su CT. The effect of bone remodeling with photobiomodulation in dentistry: a review study. Lasers Med Sci 2023; 38:265. [PMID: 37973668 DOI: 10.1007/s10103-023-03933-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2023] [Accepted: 11/08/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023]
Abstract
Photobiomodulation (PBM) has been emerging as a promising alternative therapy in dentistry. However, various parameters of PBM are used in different studies, and there is limited cumulative data on PBM for improving bone formation in clinical trials. The aim of this review was to evaluate the effectiveness of PBM in the process of bone remodeling in dentistry using randomized controlled trials. Initially, a total of 1,011 articles published from January 2008 to December 2021 were retrieved from five electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and CINAHL). After a two-step review, nine articles met the inclusion criteria. The parameter of PBM, group, treatment sessions, assessment times and outcomes of the included studies were reviewed. Eighty-nine percent of the studies revealed positive effects on bone formation between the laser group and the control group. Only one article reported that light-emitting diode did not significantly enhance osteogenesis. Additionally, the present study shows that Gallium aluminum arsenide of near infrared (NIR) laser with continuous mode is the most commonly used form of PBM. The biostimulatory effects are dependent on several parameters, with wavelength and dose being more important than others. Based on this review, it is suggested that the NIR range and an appropriate dose of PBM could be used to increase the efficiency of stimulating bone healing and remodeling. However, standardization of treatment protocols is needed to clarify therapeutic strategies in dentistry.

Abstract
Regenerative endodontic procedures (REPs) were used to recover the dental pulp’s vitality in order to avoid the undesirable outcomes of conventional endodontic treatment and to promote dentinal formation, especially for immature permanent teeth. Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) exhibits photobiological and photochemical effects for improving the root canal’s environmental conditions by compensating for oxidative stress and increasing the blood supply to implanted stem cells and improving their survival. Basic research has revealed that PBMT can modulate human dental pulp stem cells’ (hDPSCs) differentiation, proliferation, and activity, and subsequent tissue activation. However, many unclear points still remain regarding the mechanisms of action induced by PBMT in REPs. Therefore, in this review, we present the applications of laser and PBMT irradiation to the procedures of REPs and in endodontics. In addition, the effects of PBMT on the regenerative processes of hDPSCs are reviewed from biochemical and cytological perspectives on the basis of the available literature. Furthermore, we consider the feasibility of treatment in which PBMT irradiation is applied to stem cells, including dental pulp stem cells, and we discuss research that has reported on its effect.

JOURNAL OF PHOTOCHEMISTRY AND PHOTOBIOLOGY. B, BIOLOGY 2023; 238:112615. [PMID: 36493718 DOI: 10.1016/j.jphotobiol.2022.112615] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2022] [Revised: 11/09/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022]
Abstract
One of the novel strategies for bone tissue regeneration is photobiomodulation (PBM) which depends on the red and near-infrared light absorption by mitochondria and may trigger bone tissue regeneration via the production of intracellular ROS and ATP, NO release, etc. It is also important to identify the changes in those signal molecule levels in an in vivo mimicking platform such as 3-Dimensional (3D) Scaffold Free Microtissues (SFMs) that may serve more natural osteogenic differentiation responses to PBM. Herein, we aimed to increase the osteogenic differentiation capability of the co-culture of Human Bone Marrow Stem Cells (hBMSC) and Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVECs) on 3D SFMs by triple light treatment at 655 and 808-nm of wavelengths with the energy densities of 1, 3, and 5 J/cm2. We performed the analysis of cell viability, diameter measurements of SFMs, intracellular ROS production, NO release, ATP activity, temperature measurements, DNA content, ALPase activity, calcium content, and relative gene expressions of ALP, Collagen, and Osteopontin by qRT-PCR. It was found that both wavelengths were effective in terms of the viability of SFMs. 1 and 5 J/cm2 energy densities of both wavelengths increased the SFM diameter with significant changes in intracellular ROS, ATP, and NO levels compared to the control group. We concluded that PBM therapy was successful to induce osteogenesis. 1 J/cm2 at 655 nm of wavelength and 5 J/cm2 at 808 nm of wavelength were the most effective energy densities for osteogenic differentiation on SFMs with triple light treatment.

Abstract
Gingival fibroblasts have critical roles in oral wound healing. Photobiomodulation (PBM) has been shown to promote mucosal healing and is now recommended for managing oncotherapy-associated oral mucositis. This study examined the effects of the emission mode of a 940 nm diode laser on the viability and migration of human gingival fibroblasts. Cells were cultured in a routine growth media and treated with PBM (average power 0.1 W/cm2 , average fluence 3 J/cm2 , every 12h for 6 sessions) in one continuous wave (CW) and two pulsing settings with 20 % and 50 % duty cycles. Cell viability was assessed using MTT, and digital imaging quantified cell migration. After 48 and 72 hours, all treatment groups had significantly higher viability (n = 6, p < 0.05) compared to the control. The highest viability was seen in the pulsed (20% duty cycle) group at the 72-hour time point. PBM improved fibroblast migration in all PBM-treated groups, but differences were not statistically significant (n = 2, p > 0.05). PBM treatments can promote cell viability in both continuous and pulsed modes. Further studies are needed to elucidate the optimal setting for PBM-evoked responses for its rationalized use in promoting specific phases of oral wound healing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Healing unbinds a well choreographed array of cellular, physiologic, biochemical, and molecular processes directed toward restoring the integrity and functional capacity of the damaged structures. The rate and degree of healing vary among individuals but is greatest during the first few months or years after tooth loss. Evidence suggests that alveolar bone ridge resorption may be prevented, initially by reconstructive surgical techniques using several materials which are employed at the time of extraction. This droves to the development of bone substitutes materials such as hydroxyapatite, beta tricalcium phosphate (β TCP), and bioactive glasses. These regenerative materials not only act as an osteoconductive scaffold but also interact with the surrounding tissues and impart an osseostimulatory effect. METHODS Twenty adult patients who required bilateral removal of homologous tooth, were informed and described regarding post extraction socket grafting using β TCP and CPS followed by covering with Collagen Membrane. Radiographic densitometry evaluation of postoperative visits of immediate; 1st month; 3rd month; and 6th month using orthopantomograph was done. RESULTS The Karl Pearson's Correlation coefficient was used to determine the degree of bone density with adjacent bone preoperatively and postoperatively. The statistical evaluation, CPS was more superior to β TCP, with a difference of 58.75 and P value showed more significance (<0.0001). CONCLUSION This article evaluates radiographically quality and quantity of bone formation in the socket, following extraction and bone grafting using Calcium Phosphosilicate (CPS) and β TCP, it is concluded that the two modalities of treatment were efficient in improving the clinical outcome parameters as well as showed comparable regenerative effects when used in the treatment of "socket grafting" while between them CPS more superior to β TCP biomaterials by Osteogenic properties.

Abstract
RATIONALE Coccyx fracture is an injury usually caused by trauma. In most cases, the fractures recover after conservative therapy. For refractory cases that exhibit coccydynia after more than 2 months of conservative treatment, coccygectomy is indicated. However, limited information about the efficacy of this procedure is available, and it is known to have a high complication rate. As such, other therapeutic approaches are needed. Here, we report our experience using another conservative treatment option, low-level laser therapy, to successfully reduce refractory coccydynia in a patient with coccyx fracture. PATIENT CONCERNS A 23-year-old woman had refractory coccydynia and increased pain after a traffic accident-induced coccyx fracture. DIAGNOSES Initially, the patient reported transient improvement after conservative treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. However, the pain increased in severity (numerical rating scale score of 8) soon after she resumed work in her office, and progressed in the following 2 months. Surgical intervention was suggested owing to the prolonged coccydynia following the failure of conservative treatment and difficulties in performing daily life activities. However, she sought other conservative therapy options, because she was concerned about the risks associated with the coccygectomy surgery. INTERVENTIONS The patient received low-level laser therapy once a week, for 24 weeks. OUTCOMES After 11 weeks of treatment, the patient reported significant improvements in her symptoms; her pain was reduced to a numerical rating scale score of 2 and bone healing was noted on radiographs. The patient could eventually perform her daily activities satisfactorily, without coccydynia, after 24 weeks of treatment. LESSONS Laser acupuncture produced analgesic effects in this patient with refractory coccydynia after traumatic coccyx fracture. This is the first case report to apply laser acupuncture for refractory coccydynia after traumatic coccyx fracture. Our findings imply that laser acupuncture may be a good conservative therapy option for coccyx fracture.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Restoring masticatory function and replacing missing teeth with minimal pain and discomfort are the most important issues for the patient and clinician. Nowadays dental implants became the most popular line of treatment to replace missing teeth; offering a comfortable long lasting prosthesis. Osseo-integration reflects the long term success of a dental implant. Many bio-modulators are used aiming to improve the osseointegration and healing around dental implants such as Low-Level Laser treatment (LLLT) and Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF). PRF has been proven to improve bone repair process around the dental implant. LLLT is considered a noninvasive, safe technique that stimulates osteogenesis and alleviates post-operative pain. AIM Evaluation of the bio-stimulatory effect of LLLT on a dental implant with PRF compared to PRF alone clinically and radiographically. METHODS A randomised clinical trial with the split-mouth design was conducted on nine patients with bilaterally missing lower posterior tooth. All patients received one dental implant on each side with PRF. LASER application was performed to one side twice weekly for one month starting on the day of insertion. Post-operative pain was assessed daily through the first week using numerical rating pain scale (NRS) as the primary outcome. Relative peri-implant bone density was measured using direct digital intraoral radiography immediately after insertion, one, four and nine months postoperatively. Implants stability were measured using radio frequency assessment immediately after insertion, four and nine months post-operative as secondary outcomes. RESULTS The NRS for pain was significantly decreased by the end of the first-week postoperatively in the intervention and control group with a mean of (2.22 ± 1.56) (2.11 ± 1.83) respectively. However, there was no statistically significant difference between the test groups at P-Value (0.892). The relative bone density values were decreased by the end of the ninth month of follow-up in the intervention and control group with a mean of (134.42 ± 16.13) (128.77 ± 33.54) respectively. No statistically significant difference was observed between the two test groups at P-value (0.863). The radiofrequency values for implant stability showed no statically significant difference after nine months of follow up when compared to the initial stability values at the day of insertion in the intervention and control group. The mean radiofrequency values were (67.24 ± 1.79) and (66.9 ± 2.57) respectively, and no statistically significant difference was observed between the two test groups at P-value (0.793). CONCLUSION There are no statistically significant differences in post-operative pain values, implant stability and bone density between the implant sites treated with PRF augmented by Diode laser compared to implant sites treated by PRF alone.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to perform a systematic review on the use of lasers in oral surgery for bone healing. Selection of articles was carried out by two evaluators in Pubmed and Web of Science databases for published articles and OpenGray for gray literature. Search strategy was developed based on the PICO Question "Does the use of lasers after oral surgery improve bone healing?". Eligibility criteria were: being on laser; evaluate bone healing; involve oral surgery; do not be about implant, periodontics, orthodontics, osteonecrosis or radiotherapy, nor revisions, clinical cases, etc. Data were collected from each article in a structured spreadsheet and a descriptive analysis was performed. Risk assessment of bias of the articles was carried out through the tool elaborated by the Cochrane collaboration. A total of 827 potentially relevant references were identified. No articles were found in OpenGray. Eleven articles met the eligibility criteria and were included in the systematic review. Most of studies were in vivo and in jaw, being conducted with low-power lasers which were applied immediately after the surgical procedure of extraction. Neoformation and bone density were the outcomes of choice and there was a tendency of increase in bone density, neoformation, regeneration, mineralization, or bone condensation when laser was applied. Regarding the bias risk assessment, studies were not clear in reporting most of the parameters. Low-power laser therapy seems to reduce time of bone healing in oral surgery, although there are no defined protocols and the level of evidence is still considered weak.
