NCT ID NCT07636265
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether shining a special low-level laser on the gums after getting a dental implant can reduce swelling, pain, and help the implant stay stable. Fifty adults who needed implants took part. The laser was used right after surgery, and the team checked healing, pain levels, and implant stability over time.
