Abstract

This study was conducted in an attempt to evaluate the effect of the low level laser therapy on the bone healing of immediate dental implants. Methods: Eleven implants were placed immediately in freshly extracted sockets or traumatic tooth loss in place of irrestorable maxillary central incisors in ten patients, control group(five implants) and laser group (six implants), the patients of both group received the suitable implant augmented by Biocollagen membrane, laser group subjected to a total of eight sessions of diode laser of wave length 980 nm and average power 500 mw in anon contact mode scheduled in two sessions weekly for a period of one month started immediately post operatively for five minutes per session. All patients subjected to periapical digital radiograph immediately postoperatively, two weeks, one, three and six months postoperatively, by Digora soft ware used to monitor the changes within bone density through that period, also laser group subjected to CBCT immediate postoperative, three and six months. The results revealed that laser group showed statistically significant increased in percentage mean bone density compared to control group through the same study intervals, and there was a positive correlation between Digora results and CBCT results in laser group.
