Cellular responses following low-dose irradiation have been widely debated. Several studies have revealed detrimental effects of low-dose irradiation; however, some studies have shown contrasting results. Moreover, the effects of periapical irradiation on osteoblastic cells have not yet been revealed. Therefore, in this study, we tested the hypothesis that low-dose dental irradiation of osteoblastic cells reduces reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and leads to increased cellular proliferation and high-dose dental irradiation of osteoblastic cells increases ROS production and leads to cellular apoptosis.
