Standard surgical treatments are often invasive and insufficient. Laser therapy offers antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and regenerative effects. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of 980 nm monolaser therapy and 980 nm and 1550 nm dual-wavelength therapy on alveolar socket healing in a rabbit model. Methods: In vitro tests evaluated bactericidal effects of 980 nm laser exposure. Eighteen adult male chinchilla rabbits underwent the extraction of the first incisors with the prevention of clot formation to model alveolar socket healing. On day 3, animals were randomized to three groups: mechanical curettage and antiseptic irrigation, 980 nm diode laser therapy, or combined 980 nm + 1550 nm therapy. Clinical parameters (hyperemia, edema, pain, socket closure) were assessed up to day 7. Histological and microbiological analyses were performed on days 7 and 12. Results: Laser therapy showed superior outcomes compared to mechanical treatment. In vitro, 980 nm exposure eradicated microorganisms after 3 s. By day 7, hyperemia decreased to 0.7 \u00b1 0.6 points in the dual-laser group, versus 2.0 \u00b1 0.0 (980 nm) and 3.0 \u00b1 0.0 (mechanical). Complete socket closure occurred in 33% with mechanical treatment and in 67% of sites in the dual-laser group. Pain was fully resolved only after dual-laser therapy. Histology confirmed more organized granulation tissue and angiogenesis in the dual-laser group. Conclusions: Dual-wavelength laser therapy demonstrated superior anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and regenerative effects compared with diode monotherapy and mechanical treatment. These findings highlight its promise as a minimally invasive approach for managing alveolitis, warranting further clinical evaluation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/dj14010017","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,2]],"date-time":"2026-01-02T09:56:23Z","timestamp":1767347783000},"page":"17","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Dual-Wavelength 980 nm and 1550 nm Laser Therapy Accelerates Alveolar Socket Healing After Tooth Extraction"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Dinislam","family":"Davletshin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department pf Oral Surgery, Borovskiy Institute of Dentistry, Sechenov University, 8\/2 Trubetskaya St., Moscow 119991, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-6481-6017","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aglaya","family":"Kazumova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department pf Oral Surgery, Borovskiy Institute of Dentistry, Sechenov University, 8\/2 Trubetskaya St., Moscow 119991, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4137-8993","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alexey","family":"Fayzullin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Regenerative Medicine, Sechenov University, 8\/2 Trubetskaya St., Moscow 119991, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6372-9910","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nune","family":"Vartanova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Microbiology of Opportunistic Bacteria, I.I.
