Orthodontic treatment, especially in its early stages, such as the placement of separators, is often associated with pain due to an inflammatory reaction in the periodontal tissues.Although NSAIDs are used to relieve discomfort, their side effects have prompted the search for safer alternatives.LLLT, with its anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, is a promising method, although further studies are required
