Low-level laser therapy, piezocision, or their combination vs. conventional treatment for orthodontic tooth movement : A hierarchical 6-arm split-mouth randomized clinical trial.

Abstract
PURPOSE The use non-invasive or minimally invasive methods to accelerate orthodontic tooth movements (OTM) is desirable. In this regard, low-level laser therapy (LLLT, photobiomodulation) and piezocision are suggested. However, because the efficacies of these methods remain controversial/inconclusive, we investigated and compared these two methods. METHODS Sixty-four quadrants in 32 patients were randomized into three parallel intervention groups of 22, 22, and 20 (6 parallel arms, n = 64 treatment/control sides). Bilateral first premolars were extracted and canine retraction commenced. In each group, one side of the mouth was randomly selected as control, while the other side underwent each of three interventions: LLLT (940 nm, 8 J, 0.5 W, 16 s, 12 sites), piezocision, and "LLLT + piezocision". At the 3rd, 6th, and 9th follow-up weeks, canine retraction and anchorage loss were measured. Data were analyzed statistically (α = 0.05). RESULTS After 9 weeks, LLLT, piezocision, and LLLT + piezocision improved canine retraction by 0.51, 1.14, and 1.93 mm, respectively. LLLT accelerated canine retraction (compared to control) by 1.6-, 1.4-, and 1.2-fold in the 3rd, 6th, and 9th week, respectively. These statistics were 2.1-, 1.7-, and 1.5-fold for piezocision and 2.7-, 2.1-, and 1.8-fold for LLLT + piezocision. Compared to controls, each intervention showed significant retraction acceleration (p < 0.05). The effect of LLLT + piezocision was greater than that of isolated piezocision (p < 0.05), which itself was greater than that for isolated LLLT (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION All three methods accelerated OTM, with the combination of LLLT + piezocision producing the strongest and LLLT producing the weakest acceleration.

[PMID: 38229945 PMCID: PMC10789100 DOI: 10.5662/wjm.v13.i5.379] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 11/18/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 12/20/2023] Open
Abstract
When designing a study on dental movement acceleration or pain control during orthodontic treatment, it is crucial to consider effective parameters. The objective of this editorial is to compile the most effective parameters supported by evidence that should be considered in future studies to achieve complete parameter homogenization. The protocol currently recommended to homogenize the parameters and facilitate the development of further meta-analysis in terms of acceleration of movement and pain control in orthodontics is Wavelength: 810 nm, 2.2 J per surface, 0.1 W in continuous mode/0.1 W average power in a super-pulsed, sweeping movement, 1mm from the mucosa, 22 seconds along the vestibular surface and 22 seconds along the lingual surface, the recommended speed of movement is 2 mm/sec, 1 application during each orthodontic control, to achieve dental movement acceleration and repeat the dose at 24 h to ensure pain elimination. The energy density and power density will depend on the spot size used in the equipment and the distance from the mucosa. It will strengthen the evidence of photobiomodulation as the best therapy to accelerate tooth movement and at the same time control the pain produced by orthodontic treatments.

Abstract
Although several studies have evaluated the effect of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on orthodontic movement acceleration, results are still inconsistent. Such inconsistencies may be attributed to the differences in the LLLT application protocols, especially in terms of wavelength ranges. Objective: (i) to assess the clinical effects of LLLT on the acceleration of orthodontic movement and (ii) to establish the most effective LLLT wavelength to accelerate tooth movement during orthodontic treatments. MEDLINE (PubMed), Scopus, ScienceDirect, and LILACS were searched from inception to October 2022. Inclusion criteria: Split-mouth randomised clinical trials (RCTs) on systemically healthy patients reporting the effect of LLLT in accelerating orthodontic movements, specifically retraction of canines. The risk of bias was assessed using RoB-2. A random effect model was applied. Nineteen RCTs met the inclusion criteria for qualitative synthesis, and eighteen RCTs were included in the quantitative synthesis. Seventeen studies were rated as at some concerns of bias and two studies were classified as having a low risk of bias. In general terms, this systematic review and meta-analysis presents a moderate risk of bias. Findings of this systematic review and meta-analysis point to a tendency for faster orthodontic dental movement in the groups receiving LLLT treatment during the first (OR of 0.28 95% CI (0.07 to 0.48)), second (OR of 0.52 95% CI (0.31 to 0.73)), and third (OR of 0.41 95% CI (0.03 to 0.79)) month follow-up. Wavelengths ≤ 810 nm and energy density values ≤ 5.3 J/cm2 were associated with faster orthodontic tooth movement.

Effectiveness of photobiomodulation with low-level lasers on the acceleration of orthodontic tooth movement: a systematic review and meta-analysis of split-mouth randomised clinical trials. Lasers Med Sci 2023; 38:200. [PMID: 37667064 DOI: 10.1007/s10103-023-03870-7'||'] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 01/29/2024]
Abstract
Although several studies have evaluated the effect of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on orthodontic movement acceleration, results are still inconsistent. Such inconsistencies may be attributed to the differences in the LLLT application protocols, especially in terms of wavelength ranges. Objective: (i) to assess the clinical effects of LLLT on the acceleration of orthodontic movement and (ii) to establish the most effective LLLT wavelength to accelerate tooth movement during orthodontic treatments. MEDLINE (PubMed), Scopus, ScienceDirect, and LILACS were searched from inception to October 2022. Inclusion criteria: Split-mouth randomised clinical trials (RCTs) on systemically healthy patients reporting the effect of LLLT in accelerating orthodontic movements, specifically retraction of canines. The risk of bias was assessed using RoB-2. A random effect model was applied. Nineteen RCTs met the inclusion criteria for qualitative synthesis, and eighteen RCTs were included in the quantitative synthesis. Seventeen studies were rated as at some concerns of bias and two studies were classified as having a low risk of bias. In general terms, this systematic review and meta-analysis presents a moderate risk of bias. Findings of this systematic review and meta-analysis point to a tendency for faster orthodontic dental movement in the groups receiving LLLT treatment during the first (OR of 0.28 95% CI (0.07 to 0.48)), second (OR of 0.52 95% CI (0.31 to 0.73)), and third (OR of 0.41 95% CI (0.03 to 0.79)) month follow-up. Wavelengths ≤ 810 nm and energy density values ≤ 5.3 J/cm2 were associated with faster orthodontic tooth movement.

BMC Oral Health 2023; 23:113. [PMID: 36803455 PMCID: PMC9940345 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-023-02812-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2022] [Accepted: 02/13/2023] [Indexed: 02/21/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In orthodontic treatment, closing spaces, specifically the extraction and scattered spaces of the anterior teeth, requires some auxiliary bias, such as an elastomeric chain. Many factors affect the mechanical properties of elastic chains. In this study, we investigated the relationship of the filament type, the number of loops, and the force degradation of elastomeric chains under thermal cycling conditions. METHODS The orthogonal design included three filament types (i.e., close, medium, and long). Four, five, and six loops of each elastomeric chain were stretched to have an initial force of 250 g in an artificial saliva environment at 37 °C and thermocycling between 5 and 55 °C three times a day. The remaining force of the elastomeric chains was recorded at different time points (4 h, 24 h, 7 days, 14 days, 21 days, and 28 days), and the percentage of the remaining force was calculated. RESULTS The force decreased significantly in the initial 4 h and degraded mostly within the first 24 h. In addition, the percentage of force degradation increased slightly between 1 and 28 days. CONCLUSIONS Under the same initial force, the longer the connecting body is, the fewer the number of loops and the greater the force degradation of the elastomeric chain are.

A randomized controlled trial evaluating the effect of two low-level laser irradiation protocols on the rate of canine retraction. Sci Rep 2022; 12:10074. [PMID: 35710926 PMCID: PMC9203565 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-14280-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2022] [Accepted: 06/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the canine retraction rate with two low-level laser therapy (LLLT) irradiation protocols, involving both a high and a low application frequency. Twenty patients were randomly divided into two equal groups. In Group A, one side of the maxillary arch randomly received LLLT on days 0, 3, 7, 14, and every 2 weeks thereafter, whereas in Group B, one side received LLLT every 3 weeks. Tooth movement was checked every three weeks since the onset of canine retraction, over the 12-week study period. Moreover, Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) levels in the gingival crevicular fluid were assessed. Results revealed a significant increase in the canine retraction rate on the laser sides of groups A and B, in comparison with the control sides (p < 0.05), with no significant differences reported between the laser sides in both groups (p = 0.08–0.55). Also, IL-1β levels were significantly higher on the laser sides of both groups, in comparison with the control sides (p < 0.05). Therefore, LLLT can effectively accelerate tooth movement, with both frequent and less frequent applications, which is attributed to an enhanced biological response as reflected by the elevated IL-1β levels on the compression sides.

Abstract
Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) has been widely investigated as an adjunct technique for orthodontic treatment due to photobiomodulation effect. LLLT appears to be supportive for an orthodontic practice in terms of tooth movement acceleration, pain relief, and root resorption management. The decrease in these adverse effects will enhance the compliance in orthodontic patients, which could positively impact treatment outcomes. However, there seemed to be inconsistency in the impact of LLLT as well as its laser and treatment parameters. This scoping review aimed to evaluate the impact of different irradiation parameters on tooth movement acceleration, pain relief, and root resorption as well as to construct a protocol of LLLT in orthodontic practice. The search was conducted across PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, Google Scholar, and the reference lists of identified articles. The last search was conducted on October 10, 2021 to identify experiments in humans regarding the application of LLLT as noninvasive treatment in orthodontic practice published between 2010 and 2021. However, they were excluded if they were not clinical research, if they did not report the source of laser, or if they were not relevant to tooth movement, pain perception, and root resorption, or if they were not available in English or in full-text. Following the systematic search and selection process, 60 articles were included in this review. A majority of included articles were published in the past few years. The findings of this review supported the application of LLLT in orthodontic practice with purposes of tooth movement acceleration and pain reduction. The positive impact of LLLT on root resorption had not been clearly evident yet. As this review demonstrated heterogeneity of both laser and treatment parameters, further research should be required to ensure the effectiveness of its specific parameters in orthodontic practice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This randomized controlled clinical trial aimed to assess the effect of LED5 and LLLT6 in a three-arm parallel setting. METHODS Sixty patients who needed the maxillary first premolar extraction were allocated to three groups using the stratified block randomization method. In the LED group, a custom-made device with a wavelength of 640nm and a power density of 40 mW/cm2 was used 5min/day. In the laser group, Ga Al As7 laser with a wavelength of 810nm and a power of 100 mW was used on days 0, 3, 30, and 60 each time for 18seconds. Patients in the control group received placebo treatment as the laser group protocol, using a coated light cure device. Models were made at baseline and monthly until the end of the retraction. The rate of canine retraction was the primary outcome, while canine rotation and pain were secondary outcomes. The final data were anonymous for the outcome assessor and statistical consultant. Data were analyzed per protocol using a linear mixed model. RESULTS The rate of canine retraction significantly increased by 60.8% in the laser group, while it increased not significantly by 26% in the LED group compared with the control group. There was no significant difference among the groups in terms of tooth rotation and pain. CONCLUSIONS LLLT can accelerate orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). LED with the present setting couldn't increase the rate of OTM. LLLT and LED did not affect canine rotation or pain. TRIAL REGISTRATION IRCT20120220009086N4. On 1 June 2019 was retrospectively registered.

Abstract
Objective: The present systematic review aims to establish an effective range of low-level laser therapy wavelengths to accelerate tooth movement in orthodontic treatments. Materials and methods: The electronic literature search was carried out in the following databases: PubMed, ISI Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The protocol (CRD42019117648) was registered in PROSPERO. Results: According to PRISMA guidelines and after applying the inclusion criteria, nine RCTs were included. Three blind reviewers independently assessed the methodological quality and evidence level of selected articles. Evidence level classification was established according to the recommendations of SIGN 50 (Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network 2012) and was high quality being ++, acceptable +, low quality -, unacceptable -, reject 0. Conclusions: The majority of RCTs related to accelerating the tooth movement in orthodontic treatments are ideally between 780 and 830 nm wavelengths. The average increase in speed movement calculated as a percentage of the control group in nine studies is 24%. Further studies are necessary to establish the exact dosimeter in photobiomodulation during orthodontic movement.
