Laser and light-emitting diode effects on pre-osteoblast growth and differentiation

Abstract: The acceleration of bone regeneration by low-intensity laser irradiation may hold potential benefits in clinical therapy in orthopedics and dentistry. The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of light-emitting diode (LED) and laser on pre-osteoblast MC3T3 proliferation and differentiation. Cells were irradiated with red, infrared, and LED (3 and 5 J/cm(2)). Lasers had a power density of 1 W/cm(2) and irradiation time of 2 and 5 s. LED had a power density of 60 mW/cm(2) and irradiation time of 50 and… Show more

“…The wavelength of such lasers is reported to be 500–1200 nm. Recent literatures regarding pre-osteoblast stimulation with red laser were reported [2831]. We used a Ga–As–Al laser with a wavelength of 808 nm, which is within the prescribed range.…”

“…Low-power laser irradiation promotes the proliferation and differentiation of osteogenic cell lines, such as MC3T3-E1 cells13. Although lasers emit coherent light and LEDs emit non-coherent light, both induce similar photobiological effects when used with the same irradiation parameters5.…”

“…Faced with a heterogeneous set of experimental studies based on a variety of animal models, it is not possible to extrapolate the results to human subjects. [50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57] The majority of human studies demonstrate a positive benefit and it could be considered that the treatment is seen as passing the threshold as an evidenced-based approach. Given the heterogeneous wavelengths and parameters employed in the limited number of studies accepted for inclusion, it is premature to offer a protocol to guide clinicians.…”
