Objectives.
To assess the effectiveness of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) in reducing orthodontic pain after the application of orthodontic force (OF).
Methods.
A systematic search was conducted in the MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and EBSCOhost databases.
The study included randomized clinical trials (RCT) which analysed the effectiveness of LLLT in reducing orthodontic pain assessed at 24 and 72 hrs after the application of OF.
The risk of bias of the eligible trials was assessed using the Cochrane Collaboration’s risk of bias tool.
Standard mean difference was calculated and pooled by meta-analysis using random effect models.
Results.
Of 467 identified articles, 20 RCT were finally included.
In the risk of bias assessments, 13 studies presented a high risk, 5 an unclear risk, and 2 a low risk.
The meta-analysis showed that in patients treated with laser versus placebo there was a difference in favour of LLLT in spontaneous pain 24 and 72 hrs after the installation of light archwires and spontaneous pain and chewing pain 24 and 72 hrs after the installation of elastomeric separators.
Conclusions.
LLLT proved to be effective in promoting a reduction in spontaneous and chewing pain after the application of OF; however, the poor quality of the evidence requires these results to be treated with caution.
