Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a laser light source treatment which is used because of its stimulatory and healing properties when used on live tissue. Laser technology has the advantage of improving treatment techniques as well as aiding in the healing process. LLLT does not cut/burn. It is termed as soft laser which works its magic through light energy of a particular wavelength rather than heat.
When LLLT procedures are performed on soft tissues, the process uses laser energy to enhance healing of injured soft and hard tissues. Minimizes bleeding or blood loss. At times, minimizes or eliminates the need for anaesthesia (However, this depends on the clinical procedure). Repair of hard tissues is simpler and more comfortable for the patient
Studies and research show that laser decreases swelling, redness, heat, pain and inflammation by the numerous mechanisms.
