Recurrent Behavior of Oral Herpes Before Laser Therapy
Objectives: Describe the behavior of recurrent extraoral lesions caused by HSV before high and low power laser therapy.
Methods: Descriptive study with 24 subjects diagnosed with HSV, in prodromal or vesicular stage no longer than 2 days. A medical history was performed, data was recorded as pain measurement through (VAS); they were assigned non-randomly in two groups, 16 subjects received infrared soft laser therapy from Arsenide-Gallium-Aluminum at a power of 980nm and 8 subjects with Wiser II laser high-power diode laser at a power of 1.2w. The data was analyzed in the SPSS-25 software, and expressed in frequency and percentage.
Results: From the soft laser group 9 women and 7 men, mean age of 23.5 ± 4. In the high laser group there were 8 participants, 5 women and 3 men, mean age of 24.4 ± 6.87.3%.
87.3% of the group treated with soft laser at the initial appointment tested VAS 8; 50.1% presented VAS 5 in the first control and the third control presented a VAS of 0. Regarding injuries, 75% presented in ulcers in 25% scab in the first control. Third control was presented 100% in stage crust, fourth control was presented 100% in macula.
In the group treated with high 81.3% tested VAS = 8. First control 100% presented a VAS = 0. In the first control 70% scab, 30% ulcers, second control 100% crust and third control 100% macula.
50% of the subjects of both groups showed a frequency of occurrence of 4 times a year, with stress in both groups being the highest percentage factor 56.3%.
Conclusions: The low and high power laser accelerates tissue regeneration and wound healing; it also has physical properties that produce biological effects on living tissue, use analgesia in the irradiated area.
