Uxinano lwamathambo kunye nokukwazi komzimba ukwakha amathambo amatsha kubalulekile kubantu abachachayo emva kokwenzakala. Kubalulekile nakuthi sonke njengoko sikhula kuba amathambo ethu adla ngokuba buthathaka ngokuhamba kwexesha, nto leyo eyandisa umngcipheko wokuqhekeka kwamathambo. Iingenelo zokuphilisa amathambo zokukhanya okubomvu kunye ne-infrared ziyaziwa kakhulu kwaye zibonakaliswe kwizifundo ezininzi zelebhu.
Ngowama-2013, abaphandi baseSão Paulo, eBrazil bafunde ngemiphumo yokukhanya okubomvu kunye ne-infrared ekuphilisweni kwamathambo eempuku. Okokuqala, iqhekeza lethambo lanqunyulwa kumlenze ongasentla (i-osteotomy) weempuku ezingama-45, ezathi emva koko zahlulwahlulwa zaba ngamaqela amathathu: Iqela loku-1 alizange lifumane kukhanya, iqela lesi-2 lanikwa ukukhanya okubomvu (660-690nm) kwaye iqela lesi-3 lavezwa kukukhanya okubomvu (790-830nm).
Olu phononongo lufumanise “ukwanda okukhulu kwinqanaba lokwanda kweeminerali (inqanaba elingwevu) kumaqela omabini anyangwa nge-laser emva kweentsuku ezisi-7” kwaye okunomdla kukuba, “emva kweentsuku ezili-14, liqela kuphela elanyangwa nge-laser therapy kwi-infrared spectrum elibonise uxinano olukhulu lwamathambo.”
Isiphelo sophando luka-2003: “Sigqiba kwelokuba i-LLLT ibe nefuthe elihle ekulungisweni kweziphene zamathambo ezifakwe kwithambo leenkomo elingaphiliyo."
Isigqibo sophando luka-2006: “Iziphumo zophando lwethu nezinye zibonisa ukuba ithambo elikhanyiswe kakhulu ngamaza e-infrared (IR) zibonisa ukwanda kwe-osteoblastic proliferation, i-collagen deposition, kunye neorformation yamathambo xa kuthelekiswa nethambo elingakhanyiswanga.”
Isigqibo sophando luka-2008: “Ukusetyenziswa kwetekhnoloji yelaser kuye kwasetyenziswa ukuphucula iziphumo zonyango zotyando lwamathambo kunye nokukhuthaza ixesha elingcono emva kotyando kunye nokuphiliswa ngokukhawuleza.”
Unyango lwe-infrared kunye nokukhanya okubomvu lungasetyenziswa ngokukhuselekileyo ngumntu wonke owaphula ithambo okanye owenzakeleyo naluphi na uhlobo lokulimala ukuphucula isantya kunye nomgangatho wokuphiliswa.
