| Abstract | ||||
| Introduction: The success of endosseous dental implants largely depends on the successful osseointegration of the implant and bone, and many attempts have been made to improve this process, one of which is the use of low-level laser therapy. Aim: to evaluate the role of low-level laser therapy on osseointegration of immediate implant in mandible in the anterior and premolar region. Patients and Methods: This study was conducted on 8 badly decayed lower anterior and premolar teeth in patients selected from those who were referred to the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery Faculty of Dentistry, Suez Canal University.All selected patients were informed about the details of the study and signed an informed consent. Approval of the Research Ethical Committee was obtained before starting the study. Patients were divided into two equal groups randomly using a research randomizer software (https://www.randomizer.org/). Group 1: 4 implants will be inserted in 4 fresh extraction sockets (act as control group), Group 2: 4 implants will be inserted in 4 fresh extraction sockets followed by low level lase therapy session (act as study group). Both groups had received frontier implant from GMI ilerimplant group. All patients were evaluated Clinicaly using OSTELL device and Radiographically by CBCT preoperatively and by digital radiograph immediately after implant placement and 6 months postoperatively. Results: Clinical and Radiographic evaluation showed significant higher implant stability and higher bone density around the inserted implants laser group than control group and also, the values were high after 6 months than immediate. Conclusion: The use of Low Level Laser Therapy following immediate dental implants enhances osseointegration and implant stability. | ||||
