About

Tooth loss is accompanied by bone loss in all dimensions, so preservation of the bone is mandatory for placement of dental implant, as bone quantity and quality are predictive factors in achieving proper primary stability. Low level bio stimulation has stimulatory effect on bone cells so it can be used in immediate implants to increase bone formation around the implant.

the Aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of low-level diode laser Biostimulation on immediate implants in maxillary premolars.

Full description

20 patients with unrestorable maxillary premolars were included in the study treated with immediate implants. Patients were divided into two groups (n=10). Group 1 Received immediate implant with low level diode laser application (study), and group 2 received immediate implant without laser application (control). Preoperative clinical and radiographic evaluation, immediate post operative and after 4 months radiographic evaluation to assess stability and bone density around the implant.

Enrollment: 20 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

1. Patients with unrestorable maxillary premolars with sufficient bone quantity to receive the dental implant.
2. Age ranging from 25-45.
3. Patients with no local or systemic pathology that can interfere with normal wound healing.
4. Non- smokers.
5. Patients that are properly motivated to complete follow up visits.
6. Patients with adequate oral hygiene or willing to improve their oral hygiene to ensure uncompromised wound healing.

Exclusion criteria

1. Patients with uncontrolled medical condition that can affect surgical outcome or bone and wound healing. (ex: diabetes mellitus)
2. Patients with periapical pathology that may contraindicate immediate implant placement.
3. History of receiving irradiation in head and neck region
