Palatal wound after free gingival graft surgery. Other and unspecified lesions of oral mucosa
Conditions
Interventions
Intervention 1: The patients allocated for the test group will receive the
following protocol for laser application: A GaAlAs laser will be used for irradiation at a wavelength of 940 nm, an intensity
Biolase Technology Inc., Irvine,CA, USA). The wounds of each experimental group receive laser stimulation at doses of 5J/cm2. The power output is maintained at a constant 0.21 W in the continuous-wave
The spot size is 1.26 cm2, the total energy dose per session is 6.3 J, and powerdensity is 0.16 W/cm2. Laser energy will be applied via a 400 micron optical fiber. The optical fiber is positioned at a
