Resumen
El texto original del estudio, en el idioma en que se publicó.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of low-power of 940-nm diode laser on post-operative pain after undisplaced flap surgery. This randomized clinical trial study was conducted using a split-mouth design. The study participants comprised 30 patients who needed periodontal flap surgery for periodontal pockets on the same tooth on both sides of the mandible. One side of the mandible was subjected to undisplaced flap surgery plus treatment with a 940-nm diode laser, and on the contralateral side, the surgery was conducted without applying the laser. Patients received anti-inflammatory medication and analgesics after surgery. The patients were asked to report the number of analgesics they took and the pain they experienced each night for 1 week using a visual analogue scale. An independent-sample t test was used to compare the results between the two groups. Patients reported less pain on days 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 after surgery in the laser-treated group (p < 0.05). Furthermore, fewer analgesics were used in this group on days 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 following the surgery (p < 0.05). The 940-nm diode laser with the settings used in this study could significantly reduce pain and the number of analgesics taken by patients after undisplaced flap surgery.
