TL;DR: The immediate and late therapeutic effects of the 660 nm red diode laser were more evident in 25-35-year-old patients compared with those of the 830 nm infrared diode Laser, in terms of the different age groups.

TL;DR: There was a statistically significant difference in enamel mineralization after maxillary expansion; this difference was within the clinically normal range; the cariogenic potential increased in a small number of patients during orthodontic treatment.

TL;DR: The efficiency of the diode laser in treating six patients who presented tongue paresthesia after surgical procedures which demanded regional mandible anaesthetic blockage proved to be efficient, resulting in restored sensitivity in al six treated patients.

TL;DR: This clinical case report relates to a total of 4 patients, carriers of idiopathic facial paralysis, treated with Low Level Laser Therapy using a Gallium-Aluminum-Arsenide diode diode laser of 780 nm, 50 mW, continuous wave emission, spot size 3 mm2 and total dosage of 20 joules per session distributed to the peripheral trajectory of the injured nerve.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that LLLT, when based on the use of correct irradiation parameters, is effective in treating dentinal hypersensitivity as it quickly reduces pain and maintains a prolonged painless status.
