Thesis title: Effectiveness of laser technology in autonomous eruption of palatally impacted canines and analysis of five prognostic factors: a clinical study

Aim: This clinical study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of diode laser surgery in promoting the spontaneous eruption of palatally impacted canines, compared with conventional cold blade surgery, and to assess the additional effect of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT). As a secondary aim, the study also investigated the potential influence of five prognostic factors on the eruption process. Methods: Seventy impacted canines from 52 patients were analyzed. Prognostic factors were assessed using orthopantomography and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Patients were randomly assigned to four groups: diode laser (A), cold blade (B), diode laser and PBMT (C), and cold blade and PBMT (D). Eruption was monitored from surgery (T0) to 16 weeks (T2) using an intraoral scanner (Medit i700, Medit Corp., Seoul, South Korea). STL files were superimposed with MeshLab software (v.2023.12, Visual Computing Lab, Pisa, Italy) to calculate eruption values. Data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA for intergroup comparisons and multiple linear regression to assess the influence of five prognostic factors on eruption outcomes (p-value ≤ 0.05). Results: Groups A and C showed the highest mean eruption of impacted canines (4.68 ± 0.86 mm and 5.03 ± 1.17 mm, respectively), while Group B had the lowest (2.99 ± 1.04 mm). Significant differences between groups were observed at T1–T2 and T0–T2 (p < 0.001). Linear regression identified height of impaction as a key predictor of eruption, with age additionally significant in Group A and sex approaching significance in Group C. Model evaluation indicated moderate predictive ability for the diode laser group (R²pred = 33%), poor fit for cold blade, and overfitting for PBMT groups. Conclusion: Diode laser surgery effectively promotes the spontaneous eruption of palatally impacted canines, with results comparable to those observed with diode laser combined with PBMT. Height of impaction is a primary prognostic factor influencing eruption, while age and sex may also contribute in specific groups.
