title: Adaptive responses of individual tissue structures of rat gingival mucosa to exposure to low-intensity 890-nm laser irradiation.
abstract: Adaptive reactions develop in rat gingival mucosa 1 min after single exposure to low-intensity 890-nm laser: the number of mast cells, degree and index of their degranulation, the diameter of blood vessels and their total area considerably increased. These parameters returned to normal after 1 day, while on days 3-7 they were below the control.
