Abstract in English
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of low-level laser therapy
(LLLT) on orthodontic treatment time reduction throughout leveling
and alignment stage.
We can conclude depending on this study results that LLLT is an
effective method for orthodontic archwire change acceleration and
consequently for reducing the orthodontic treatment time.
