Clinical effect of Nd:YAG laser combined with total glucosides of paeony for the treatment of erosive oral lichen planus

Abstract

Abstract: PURPOSE: To investigate the clinical effect of Nd:YAG laser combined with total glucosides of paeony (TGP) taken orally for the treatment of erosive oral lichen planus (OLP). METHODS: Sixty patients who were diagnosed as erosive OLP with clinical symptoms were divided into experimental group (n=28) and control group (n=32) using a random number table. All patients received TGP while the patients in the experimental group were given Nd:YAG laser irradiation. The clinical effects were evaluated 3 months after treatment. The data were analyzed using SPSS 17.0 software package. RESULTS: Three months later, the average VAS score and sign score had improved significantly to (1.36±1.39) and (2.32±1.56) in the experimental group. The same tendency was observed in the control group and at the time point no significant difference was observed between the experimental group and the control group. The effectiveness of the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group (82.1% vs 53.1%). CONCLUSIONS: Nd: YAG laser combined with TGP can improve the efficacy of erosive OLP. The regime is safe and effective, which is worth of wide clinical application.
