“…Alayat et al 3 ) applied HILT to 72 female patients with chronic back pain and reported its effectiveness in enhancing the range of mobility and function, supporting the results of this study. Here, HILT affected homeostasis as it enhanced ATP production by inducing thermal effects through photothermal interaction 8 ) . It can also be attributed to the fact that HILT relaxed stiffened tissue by increasing expansibility inside collagen tissue through a stimulation of metabolism of cells that was caused by decreased infection and increased temperature of the local area 9 , 10 ) .…”

[Purpose] This study examined the effects of High Intensity Laser Therapy on pain and function of patients with chronic back pain. [Subjects and Methods] This study evenly divided a total of 20 patients with chronic back pain into a conservative physical therapy group that received conservative physical therapy, and a high intensity laser therapy group that received High Intensity Laser Therapy after conservative physical therapy. All patients received the therapy three times a week for four weeks. For the high intensity laser therapy group, treatment was applied to the L1–L5 and S1 regions for 10 minutes by using a high intensity laser device while vertically maintaining the separation distance from handpiece to skin at approximately 1 cm. A visual analog scale was used to measure the pain and Oswestry Disability Index was used for functional evaluation. [Results] In a within-group comparison of the conservative physical therapy and high intensity laser therapy groups, both the visual analog scale and Oswestry Disability Index significantly decreased. In a between-group comparison after treatment, the high intensity laser therapy group showed a significantly lower visual analog scale and Oswestry Disability Index than the conservative physical therapy group. [Conclusion] High Intensity Laser Therapy can be an effective nonsurgical intervention method for reducing pain and helping the performance of daily routines of patients who have chronic back pain.

“…Although this study and previous studies [31][32][33] have shown beneficial effects of LLLT in animal models, there are very few clinical trials about its effect on wound healing in humans [34,35]. This makes a comparison of our animal study results with human studies difficult.…”

“…Studies have shown that PBMt is capable favoring the transformation of macrophages into M2 phenotype which alleviate inflammation and promotes tissue repair and remodeling. 1,26 Current literature regarding the use of PBMt for bone regeneration is mainly sourced from orthodontic applications reporting the suitability of the procedure for reducing pain and inflammation, 26,27 periodontitis management, 26,28 and bone remodeling during tooth movement. 29,30 However, independent studies are still being conducted regarding the use of PBMt for regenerating critical sized bone defects in animal models, [31][32][33] enhancing results of distraction osteogenesis, 34,35 regenerating irradiated bone, 36 repair bone lesions, 37 manage osteoporosis, 38,39 and resolve osteonecrosis.…”

As technology advances at a rapid rate, innovations in regenerative medicine will eventually include the use of energy-based therapeutics, such as low intensity-pulsed ultrasound stimulation (LIPUs), pulsed electromagnetic field stimulation (PMFs), and low-level laser/light therapy (LLLt) or photobiomodulation therapy (PBMt). Among these treatments, LLLt/PBMt attracted significant attention by the turn of the century, as evidenced by the numerous publications compared to LIPUs and PMFs, particularly for augmented bone regeneration (ABR). This is a testament of how the maturation of technology and scientific knowledge leads to latent compounded applications, even when the value of a technique is reliant on empirical data. This article reviews some of the notable investigations using LLLt/PBMt for bone regeneration published in the past decade, focusing on how this type of therapy has been utilized together with the existing regenerative medicine landscape.
