The mRNA expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the surgical sites was quantified using real-time polymerase chain reaction. The decalcified specimens were prepared for histometric analysis. Also, LLLI was performed on human umbilical vein endothelial cells to evaluate the effects on angiogenesis.
