AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THE EFFEITS OF LOW POWER DENSITY LASER ON THE HUMAN GINGIVAL FIBROBLAST

치은 섬유아세포(Gingival fibroblast)에 대한 저출력 레이저광의 효과에 관한 실험적 연구

In order to investigate the biostimulatory effect of low power density laser radiation in vitro, human gingival fibroblasts were cultured in MEM in which experiment groups respectively were made to 30 sec, 60 sec and 90 sec group. The experiments were performed by cell count, DNA and protein content measurements after experimental groups were irradiated with GaAlAs laser every day by forth day and then control group and experimental groups were compared. The results were as follows: 1. Cell counts of experimental groups were increased with exposure time, but showed no significance (P>0.05). 2. When the protein contents were compared, there was a very significant increase in 90 sec. experimental group (P<0.01). 3. When the DNA contents were compared, there was a significant difference only between control and 70 sec. group (P<0.05).
