Efecto del Láser de Baja Intensidad en el tejido pulpar durante el movimiento Ortodóncico Effect of low level laser on dental pulp tissue duringorthodontic movement

Palabras clave: Laser, laser de baja intensidad, pulpa, tratamiento ortodoncico. SUMMARY Low level laser application in orthodontics attempts to accelerate the induced orthodontic movement and to dissipate the dental discomfort during treatment. The recognition of its biological foundation is a fundamental issue to understand the effect of all tissues involved in the irradiated zone. There have been research findings on the cell proliferation and empowerment of cell functions, promotion of bone remodeling, and decreasing of the local swelling and pain during orthodontic treatments. However, the positive results of the laser application on cells involved in the orthodontic movement have not widely been investigated.
