Benefits of PHOTOBIOMODULATION
PBM Ortho shortens the whole orthodontic treatment process in half and reduces pain associated with
orthodontic treatment.
It is clinically and scientifically proven that intense near-infrared light provides a therapeutic benefit.
Infrared light energy emitted from the PBM Ortho device into the gingival area will be absorbed by
mitochondria cells in alveolar structure, thus creating an increase in cell metabolism, resulting in shortened
time for orthodontic treatment.
It might, nonetheless, create a warm sensation/tingling in the a ected area, which is common and normal.
Pain Relief Caused by Dental or Orthodontic Treatment
The device supports the healing function of the cells and reduces the pain that might be caused by dental
or orthodontic treatment in the jaw or tooth area.
Safety and Environmental Considerations
Intense near-infrared light, emitted from LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes), is beneficial, and no side e ects
have been reported for using healing light in the near infrared spectrum.
