Corse Content
Photobiomodulation therapy can be used in dentistry for a wide range of indications. Photobiomodulation (PBM) or laser therapy can regenerate mesenchymal stem cells to form interpapillary spaces and secondary dentin. It can promote bone regeneration and supports all maxillofacial surgery procedures with its anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effects. PBM promotes healing of gingivitis and can prevent or control mucositis.
The course covers the full treatment spectrum of photobiomodulation therapy in dentistry. This includes areas of use or indications such as anesthesia, aphthae, bone regeneration, edema, nerve injury, soft tissue management, among others.
Target group
The course is designed for dentists, dental hygienists, dental naturopaths and MTAs.
Course structure and length
The course consists of 4 video modules of a total duration of 3.5 h.
Competencies
You will learn about the mechanisms of action of photobiomodulation in the subcellular and tissue domains and will be able to assess its potential for use in dentistry and in the associated field of ENT. You will recognize the important role of PBM in your daily practice.
Certification
You will receive the certificate Phototherapy in Dentistry (COLLL).
After you have participated in the course, the certificate is available in your download area.
