- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Bone Density. Timepoint: Before low level laser irradiation, and 4 weeks after low level laser irradiation. Method of measurement: Periapical radiography.;The percentage of relapse. Timepoint: 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks after low level laser irradiation. Method of measurement: The percentage of relapse will be also calculated relative to the initial angle of rotation according to the following formula: the amount of relapse/ the initial degree of rotation *100.
