35 patients had 63 dental implants placed in either
the maxilla or mandible. 23 patients had an OsseoPulse™
LED device (Biolux Research Ltd, Canada) positioned over
the surgical site by the patient and utilized on a daily
basis of 20 mW/cm2 for 20 min at a wavelength of 618 nm
for 21 days. All implants were were tested for primary
stability with an Osstell Mentor RFA device (Osstell AB,
Sweden) at the time of implant placement, and at 14, 30,
60 and 90 days. Patients treated with the LED device demonstrated
significantly (p<0.05) improved dental implant stability
at day 14, day 30 and day 60.
Cytochrome
c oxidase present in Mitochondria have the
ability to absorb OsseoPulse™ photons and convert
this EMF energy into chemical energy (ATP)4.
The
wounded tissue and bone around the implant
is ischemic and hematopoetic. Precursor cells
and fibroblasts have decreased ATP and decreased
metabolism. OsseoPulse™ treatment delivers
energy to the cells directly to increase production
of ATP which accelerates wound healing and
bone formation.
