ABSTRACT Objectives: To investigate the effects of irradiation lasers and light-emitting diode (LED) light on root resorption in rat molars during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). Materials and Methods: Twenty-one 12-week-old Wistar male rats were divided into three groups: OTM only (control [CG]), OTM and LED irradiation (DG), and OTM and low laser irradiation therapy (LG). The distance between the first and second molars was used to evaluate the amount of tooth movement. The mesial surfaces of the distopalatal roots were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, and the area of the resorption was calculated. Results: Statistical analysis showed a decreased amount of tooth movement in the exposed DG or LG compared with CG, which was statistically significant (P = .031 and P = .004, respectively). However, when the DG and LG groups were compared, no statistically significant differences were found (P = .504). The root resorption areas were similar between CG and DG. However, statistically significant differences were found between LG and CG (P = .014) and LG and DG (P = .038). Conclusions: Phototherapy did not enhance tooth movement, while infrared laser irradiation did increase root resorption.

Abstract The present study aimed to analyze the effect of LED phototherapy on the presence of hyalinization and root resorption during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) in rats and to measure the amount of tooth movement. Eighty rats were allocated into two groups: LED and control (CON), where the LED rats were irradiated with infrared LED (850 nm, 30 mW) for 5 min during the first five days of OTM and where controls were not irradiated. Both groups were subdivided into four subgroups (n=10) according to the date of euthanasia (4, 7, 14 and 21 days). Five out of ten LED21 and five of ten CON21 rats were submitted to micro-computed tomography (μCT); μCT scans were taken on days 0, 7, 14 and 21. For histological study, maxillae were processed to light microscopy using Hematoxylin-Eosin (HE) and Tartrate-Resistant Acid Phosphatase (TRAP) histochemistry. The amount of tooth movement did not differ between LED and CON. Hyalinization was observed at the pressure areas in both groups, and it did not show a statistically significant difference between the groups. Root resorption was also observed in both groups after 7 days and it did not represent any differences between the two groups. LED phototherapy was not able to increase the amount of OTM. Similar characteristics of hyalinization and root resorption were observed in both groups.

The University

The University of Sydney’s Discipline of Orthodontics has been actively pursuing research in the areas of root resorption, sleep apnea, magnets in orthodontics, implants, acceleration of orthodontic tooth movement (OTM), and remote monitoring (RM). Our research has shed light on many specific factors that influence orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption (OIIRR). We also explored the effects of some of the most discussed acceleration interventions on OTM and OIIRR, such as vibration, micro-osteoperforations, piezocision, low-level laser therapy, light emitting diode, light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation, and pharmacological substances. Further, we have researched into maximizing orthopedic treatment outcomes of maxillary deficient children with use of intraoral force application with utilization of miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expander. We are currently trialing use of RM to facilitate orthodontic services in the public dental clinics.

Collagen Density

Photobiomodulation therapy using Light Emitting Diode (LED) with a certain period and intensity can stimulate tissue repair and accelerate orthodontic tooth movement. During remodeling, collagen on periodontal ligaments was formed on the pressure and tension sides. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of exposure time and observation day of blue LED on the collagen density of periodontal ligament of the pressure and tension sides of Wistar rats. Forty-eight male Wistar rats aged 3-4 months weighing 300-500 grams were divided into four groups: the control group; the group exposed to LED with λ1000 nm of 490 mW/cm2 for 25, 30, and 35 seconds once a day. In addition, their mandibular inter-incisor was administered with thirty-five grams orthodontic force using an open coil spring. The calculations on the collagen density of pressure and tension sides were carried out on days 0, 3, 7, and 14 using the TinEye application. Statistical analysis test was conducted using two-way ANOVA and LSD post hoc test. The results showed a more significant increase in the collagen density of the pressure and tension sides than that of the control group (p <0.05). The collagen density of pressure and tension sides reach the highest point at 30 seconds exposure followed by 35 and 25 seconds. The collagen density of pressure sides decreased on the 3rd day and increased afterward, and the tension sides continued to increase on the 3rd day afterward. The study showed that blue light LEDs were able to increase collagen density on the pressure and tension sides, with optimal exposure at 30 seconds, and it reached the highest point at day 14.

In this research, optoelectronic devices consisted of an infrared light emitting diode and a phototransistor with no special handling or third party-packaging were irradiated to ionizing radiation utilizing x-rays. It was found that the devices under test (DUTs) undergo performance degradation in their functional parameters during exposure to x-rays. These damaging effects are depending on their current drives and also the Total Ionizing Dose (TID) absorbed. The TID effects by x-rays are cumulative and gradually take place throughout the lifecycle of the devices exposed to radiation.
