Description
Larissa Braga and co-authors test light therapy as an add on treatment for gum disease in mice, in a study from 2024. Gum disease starts with a disturbed film of bacteria on the teeth and drives inflammation that can destroy tissue. Light treatment is used in dentistry, but how it shifts the body's chemical stress in this disease was unclear.
Mice were split into four groups, with and without gum disease and with and without light care. An infrared laser was applied for three days. In treated diseased mice, harmful oxygen byproducts and cell death in gum tissue fell. Body wide inflammation and protein damage also eased. Two inflammatory signals dropped while a calming signal rose. The results suggest light care can soften both local and whole body stress in gum disease.
