Abstract
Objectives
To investigate the effects of low level laser therapy (LLLT) combined with orthodontic treatment and review significant experimental data documenting the efficacy of laser therapy in this field of dentistry.
Material and methods
The literature was carefully reviewed to identify articles on the use of LLLT during orthodontic tooth movement.
Results
Most of the studies conducted thus far support the use of LLLT in orthodontics.
Conclusions
The number of studies published is currently insufficient to allow one to draw any significant conclusions. Moreover, rigorous, standardized protocols are needed to conduct effective clinical investigations.
