| Abstract: | Under general anesthesia and sterile conditions, incision wound was induced
in the hard palate mucosa of adult male mice. The wounds of groups 1 and 2 were
irradiated daily with He-Ne laser at 3 and 7.5 J/cm2 for 120 and 300
s, respectively, while the incision wound of group 3 not exposed served as
controls. On day 3 of injury, the laser-treated wounds contained significantly
lower neutrophils than the wounds in the control group. By day 7 after injury,
the laser-treated wounds contained significantly more fibroblasts and at the
same time contained significantly fewer macrophages. In conclusion, an
acceleration of the wound healing process of experimental wounds in the hard
palate mucosa of mice at low-level laser therapy with a He-Ne laser at energy
densities of 3 and 7.5 J/cm2 was observed. |
