The equipments are more compact and can also be used in low intensity laser therapy. The aim of this study is to analyze a possible biostimulatory effect of the diode laser on human cultured gingival fibroblasts. Material and Methods: The celll ine FMM1 was grown in Dulbecco' modified Eagle medium. Laser irradiation was carried out with a GaAIAs diode laser (wavelength: 808 nm, power output: 3.5 W, Zap Lasers, CA, USA). The irradiation was done in a defocused and continuous wave mode using a fiber of 400 micrometers. The experiments were done in triplicate (Group 1: non-irradiated cells; Group 2: cells irradiated with 3 J/cm2; and Group 3: cells irradiated with 4 J/cm2). The data of the growth curves were analyzed by statistical means. Results and Conclusion: The defocused diode laser irradiation used as low intensity laser therapy presents biostimulatory effect on growth of human gingival fibroblasts.38-38openAccessResumo de eventos científicos0000-0001-7404-9606https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7404-9606
