Effects of Biosilicate® Scaffolds and Low-Level Laser Therapy on the Process of Bone Healing

Abstract: Our findings suggest that Biosilicate presented osteogenic activity, accelerating bone repair. However, laser therapy was not able to enhance the bioactive properties of the Biosilicate.

“…Conversely, Renno, McDonnell, Crovace, Zanotto, and Laakso (2010) used a 10 J/cm 2 dose to evaluate the proliferation of MC3T3‐E1 cells cultured on biosilicate and noted decreased cell proliferation when compared with the non‐irradiated group, possibly due to biomaterial interferences (light refraction or light absorption) in laser action. Similar results were observed in the study carried out by Pinto et al (2013), who also used a biosilicate scaffold and a 120 J/cm 2 dose for repairing bone defects in rats and did not identify an extra laser therapy effect on the regeneration process. Light refraction or absorption phenomena by the biomaterial used by the authors do not seem to be relevant when using PLA films, as the present study obtained a much higher cell proliferation in the irradiated group compared with the non‐irradiated group.…”

“…Four articles employed inorganic bovine bone graft to conduct their experiments [42][43][44][45] while one of the studies used lyophilized organic bovine bone [46]. Biosilicate was utilized in five articles [47,49,53,57,64]. In three studies, mineral tri-oxide aggregate (MTA) was used [55][56][57].…”

“…Melatonin was injected intraperitoneally. After exposing the right proximal tibia of each animal, a standardized 6.0 mm diameter non-critical bone defect was created by using a motorized drill under irrigation with saline solution (Oliveira et al, 2010;Granito et al, 2011;Pinto et al, 2013).…”
