ABSTRACT
To investigate the effect of low-level laser therapy on bone healing in diabetic rats. METHODS:
Bone cavities (19 mm diameter) were performed in the femur of 72 alloxan-induced diabetic rats, which were assigned into four groups CTR (non-diabetic control), DBT (diabetic) CTRL (non-diabetic irradiated) and DBTL (diabetic irradiated). Low-level laser therapy was performed every 48h for seven days. Animals were euthanized at seven, 18 and 30 days. Alkaline phosphatase serum levels and bone repair were analyzed.RESULTS:
Low-level laser therapy significantly increased alkaline phosphatase in at seven and 18 days (p 0.001), and improved bone healing at seven (p 0.01), 18 (p 0.05) and 30 (p 0.01) in diabetic animals. In addition, bone healing in irradiated diabetic group was statistically similar to control group at 30 days (p>0.05).CONCLUSION:
Low-level laser therapy increased the serum levels of alkaline phosphatase and improved bone healing in alloxan-induced diabetic rats.(AU)Palavras-chave
