“…Moreover, the current study reviewed seven articles on the effects of LLLT on the consolidation phase of DO. [36][37][38]40,46,49,51 Six studies evaluated the effect of LLLT on the activation phase of DO 39,41,44,45,47,52 and three studies evaluated the effect of LLLT on the latency and activation phases of DO. 42,43,50 However, Angeletti et al 50 did not accurately mention these two phases but the timing of laser irradiation was within these two phases.…”

“…The reviewed studies had some differences regarding the location of corticotomy incisions in DO. Studies on the mandible of rabbits also had different locations of incision, including distal to the mental foramen and distal to the first molar, 39 between the first premolar and mental foramen, 48 at 1 mm distance from the mesial root of the first molar, 41,44 in the medial and lateral cortices right in front of the first premolar, 43 anterior to the molar teeth and posterior to the mental foramen, 45 1 cm mesial to the ramus, 46 between the premolar site and mental foramen, 38,47 and body of mandible right behind the mental foramen. 52 Two studies on the mandible of rabbits did not mention the exact location of the incision and they only discussed that an incision was made in such a way that the inferior alveolar nerve was not traumatized.…”

“…36 Another study irradiated three points measuring 1 cm 2 in size in the buccal and 3 points in the lingual for 40 seconds. 39 Another study reported laser irradiation on the first day of the maturation phase and then for another 9 sessions every 48 hours (a total of 10 sessions). The irradiated sites included 4 points around the DO area for 10 seconds.…”

The Effect of Photobiomodulation on Distraction Osteogenesis

Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a surgical procedure to increase bone height in different body parts. DO includes a surgical incision, wherein the bone is cut and a device is installed for further separation of the two ends by gradual unscrewing of the device screw. New bone gradually forms and fills the gap, and the bone height increases as such. Photobiomodulation (PBM) or low-level laser therapy (LLLT) enhances the formation of soft and hard tissue such as bone and can, therefore, accelerate the process of DO and shorten the duration of different surgical phases of DO such as latency, activation, and consolidation. Different laser types with variable exposure settings and protocols have been used for this purpose. The gallium-aluminum-arsenide (GaAlAs) diode laser is the most commonly used laser type for LLLT. This study reviews 18 published articles on the effects of LLLT on DO and summarizes their findings to further elucidate this topic.

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.

“…Gurler et al have investigated the effects of LLLT in DO in rabbit mandibles. They indicated that LLLT group presented more osteoblastic activity, angiogenesis and less cartilage formation than control groups ( Gurler and Gursoy, 2018 ). Taha et al concluded that LLL created a number of environmental conditions that could increase the osteoblast and osteoclast activity, enhance collagen synthesis, accelerate the healing of bone defects, stimulate the formation of bone callus and production of the bone matrix.…”

Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a kind of bone regeneration technology. The principle is to incise the cortical bone and apply continuous and stable distraction force to the fractured end of the cortical bone, thereby promoting the proliferation of osteoblastic cells in the tension microenvironment and stimulating new bone formation. However, the long consolidation course of DO presumably lead to several complications such as infection, fracture, scar formation, delayed union and malunion. Therefore, it is of clinical significance to reduce the long treatment duration. The current treatment strategy to promote osteogenesis in DO includes gene, growth factor, stem-cell, physical and pharmacological therapies. Among these methods, pharmacological and physical therapies are considered as safe, economical, convenience and effective. Recently, several physical and pharmacological therapies have been demonstrated with a decent ability to enhance bone regeneration during DO. In this review, we have comprehensively summarized the latest evidence for physical (Photonic, Waves, Gas, Mechanical, Electrical and Electromagnetic stimulation) and pharmacological (Bisphosphonates, Hormone, Metal compounds, Biologics, Chinese medicine, etc) therapies in DO. These evidences will bring novel and significant information for the bone healing during DO in the future.
