ABSTRACT
Objective:
This analysis was designed to present a summary of available evidence that will inform practice and guide future research for photobiomodulation (PBM) after titanium implant placement procedures. Materials andmethods:
A systematic review was performed according to the Cochrane Collaboration and in line with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) criteria. Two investigators screened the titles and abstracts, and reviewed articles for risk of bias. Online databases searched included PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science. Terms were specific to the effects of PBM on dental implant stability.Results:
Eight hundred fifty-six studies were identified, and 15 studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Light sources included both laser and light emitting diode (LED) devices. Wavelengths ranged from 618 to 1064 nm. The meta-analysis concluded that all 15 published studies were able to safely apply PBM near dental implants without adverse events. Laser and LED wavelengths that reported significant results included 618, 626, 830, 940 (2 × ), and 1064 nm.Conclusions:
The use of adjunctive PBM can be safely prescribed after surgical placement of titanium implants. Six groups reported statistical significance for improving implant stability (four laser diode, two LED) in wavelengths ranging from 618 to 1064 nm. The amount of time spent delivering PBM was not a variable that differentiated whether a study reported significant results.Palabras clave
