Abstract: A bone scaffold added to the dental alveolus immediately after an extraction avoids bone atrophy and deformity at the tooth loss site, enabling rehabilitation with implants. Photobiomodulation accelerates bone healing by stimulating blood flow, activating osteoblasts, diminishing osteoclastic activity, and improving the integration of the biomaterial with the bone tissue. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of photobiomodulation with LED at a wavelength of 850 nm on bone quality in Wistar rats submitted to molar extraction with and without a bone graft using hydroxyapatite biomaterial (Straumann® Cerabone®). Forty-eight rats were distributed among five groups (n = 12): basal (no interventions); control (extraction) (basal and control were the same animal, but at different sides); LED (extraction + LED λ = 850 nm); biomaterial (extraction + biomaterial), and biomaterial + LED (extraction + biomaterial + LED λ = 850 nm). Euthanasia occurred at 15 and 30 days after the induction of the extraction. The ALP analysis revealed an improvement in bone formation in the control and biomaterial + LED groups at 15 days (p = 0.0086 and p = 0.0379, Bonferroni). Moreover, the LED group had better bone formation compared to the other groups at 30 days (p = 0.0007, Bonferroni). In the analysis of AcP, all groups had less resorption compared to the basal group. Bone volume increased in the biomaterial, biomaterial + LED, and basal groups in comparison to the control group at 15 days (p < 0.05, t-test). At 30 days, the basal group had greater volume compared to the control and LED groups (p < 0.05, t-test). LED combined with the biomaterial improved bone formation in the histological analysis and diminished bone degeneration (demonstrated by the reduction in AcP), promoting an increase in bone density and volume. LED may be an important therapy to combine with biomaterials to promote bone formation, along with the other known benefits of this therapy, such as the control of pain and the inflammatory process.
