statement of the problem: recurrent aphthous stomatitis (ras) is one of the most common lesions in the oral cavity. due to its multifactorial nature, there is no definitive treatment for ras. laser therapy is one of the suggested treatments to reduce patient’s discomfort. purpose: the purpose of the present clinical trial is to assess the effect of low and high level laser therapy on pain contr...

introduction: low-level laser therapy (lllt) is shown effective in healing diabetic foot ulcer when combined with conventional therapy. since; diabetes mellitus is a leading cause of impaired wound healing. the aim of this study is to determine the effect of different diabetic control’s methods on the healing response of diabetic foot ulcer in those patients treated with low level laser therapy...

Introduction: Mucogingival surgery is performed to correct defects in the morphology, position, and/or amount of gingiva. Such post-operative complications as bleeding, swelling, and pain have often been documented after mucogingival surgery and are associated with discomfort after surgery. The low-intensity laser has been used to promote analgesia. Low level laser therapy (LLLT) not only accel...

the use of low level laser to reduce pain, inflammation and edema, to promote wound, deeper tissues and nerves healing, and to prevent tissue damage has been known for almost forty years since the invention of lasers. this review will cover some of the proposed cellular mechanisms responsible for the effect of visible light on mammalian cells, including cytochrome c oxidase (with absorption pea...

low level laser therapy (lllt) uses a light source that generates extremely pure light, of a single wavelength1. the effect is not thermal, but rather related to photochemical reactions in the cells. lllt was introduced as an alternative non-invasive treatment for oa about 10 years ago, but its effectiveness is still controversial2. a cochrane review of lllt in osteoarthritis included five tria...

background and objective: ankle sprain is the most common injuries of ankle joint that 22% of sport injuries is related to ankle sprain.the aim of this study is to compare the effect of 1% hydrocortisone phonophoresis (1% hcp) with low level laser therapy (lllt) on treatment of 2nd degree ankle sprain. materials and methods: this double-blinded clinical trial was performed in fattemieh physioth...

Background: Low-level lasers are used for various medical applications including wound healing and hair loss treatment. Cell Therapy using skin stem cells could be a novel approach to hair transplantation. However, there is no study on the effect of low-level laser on the hair follicle stem cells. So, in this study, we investigated the effect of low level laser irradiation on viability and ROS ...

the effect of low intensity laser radiation in the treatment of acute and chronic pain is now established in many studies. trigeminal neuralgia is a pain passes through nerve’s branches and its trigger is located in skin or mucosa that could lead to pain with a trigger stimulus. the pain involved branches of trigeminal nerve that sometimes has patients to seek the treatment for several years. n...
