B

isphosphonates are being increasingly used for the

treatment of metabolic and oncological pathologies

involving the skeletal system. Because of the severity of the

Bisphosphonates associated osteonecrosis of the jaws, the

difficulties of treatment, and patient discomfort, additional

support methods for their management are needed. Laser

therapy has an easy handling, photo biostimulator effect

on tissues healing, so it can be considered a preferred

therapy. The primary objective of the treatment should be

to improve patient quality of life through pain and infection

management, prevent the development of new lesions, and

slow disease progression. In recent years, the use of laser for

bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw has become

more widespread, due to its use of administration and widely

reportedbeneficial effects on tissuehealing. The videopresent a

systematic review of the literature sought to elucidate whether

Low Level Laser Therapy has positive effects in the treatment

of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw and a

study that evaluate the influence of low- level laser therapy

in the 685nm and 830nm wavelength in the healing process

of the bone and soft tissues in rats under Bisphosphonate

therapy zoledronic acid and dexamethasone concomitantly

that underwent a surgery for the extraction of upper molars.
