Photobiomodulation (PBM), or low level laser therapy, is a photo-chemical reaction where light energy of a certain wavelength, intensity, and duration is absorbed at a cellular level, improving local circulation, oxygenation, and enzyme activity. It has been clinically tested and shown to help improve tissue repair and reduce pain and inflammation.
The benefits of PBM include:
- Temporary pain relief
- Improved local blood circulation
- Relaxation of muscle
- Inflammation decrease
- Faster healing
- Improved cellular function, especially in stressed cells
The Gemini™ laser now has PBM adapter available, which means you can offer PBM treatments to your patients. Offering your patients PBM therapy allows you to help relieve any discomfort they may have and get them more comfortable with laser dentistry.
