Treatment of Oral Lichen Planus With Paeoniflorin and Photodynamic Therapy
Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a common chronic inflammatory disease of the oral mucosa and is considered a precancerous condition. It is characterized by white reticular changes in the oral mucosa, which can progress to erosions and cause pain in severe cases. The pathogenesis of OLP is still unclear, but …
Efficacy of Photodynamic Therapy in the Non-Surgical Treatment of Peri-Implantitis
Peri-implantitis is a growing public health problem that can lead to several complications and sequelae, with a serious impact on the health and quality of life of patients and a high cost for healthcare systems. Bacterial plaque that accumulates around dental implants leads to peri-implant tissue inflammation that ultimately can …
Evaluation of Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy and Minimal Intervention Associated With Deproteinization in Permanent Teeth With Molar Incisor Hypomineralization
Introduction: Molar Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH) is a qualitative defect of enamel development that occurs in the mineralization phase. MIH affects one or more permanent molars and, occasionally, permanent incisors. The aim of the proposed study is to evaluate the clinical effect of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) on permanent teeth with …
Photodynamic Therapy for Benign Dermal Neurofibromas- Phase II
The investigators wish to determine the time to disease progression for benign neurofibromas treated with Levulan Kerastick topical photosensitizer and red light photodynamic therapy (PDT) in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). The investigators also wish to measure tumor size for control and treatment tumors in order to gain insights …
Photodynamic Therapy With Hydrogel Dressing for Chronic Wounds
63 patients with chronic infectious wounds were enrolled in the controlled study. They were randomly divided into three groups equally. Group 1 (Grp.1): The patients received hydrogel dressing change at three days intervals. Group 2 (Grp.2): The patients received ALA-PDT treatment at ten days intervals for 4 sessions. Groups 3 …
Efficacy and Safety of Photodynamic Therapy for CIN3
To investigate the efficacy and safety of photodynamic therapy (20% 5-amino-ketovalerate 630nm red light) in the treatment of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 3(CIN 3)in women in the real world
Antibacterial Photodynamic Therapy in the Management of Peri-implantitis
This early-stage study is designed to determine the efficacy of the Lumoral method in periimplantitis. Improved supragingival plaque control can help to also sustain subgingival plaque management in the long term. In addition, the device might have a photobiomodulation effect on periodontal tissues, thus impacting osseointegration.
Treatment of Intrabony Defects With Simvastatin and Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy
Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is characterized by the association of photosensitizing agents, promoting the generation of reactive oxygen species like free radicals and singlet oxygen, which are cytotoxic to certain bacteria. Simvastatin (SMV) enhances alkaline phosphatase activity and increases the expression of bone sialoprotein, osteocalcin, and type I collagen and …
Evaluation of Photodynamic Therapy in Pieces With Presence of Fistula.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if adjuvant antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) can help in the treatment in patients with pieces with apical periodontitis and the presence of fistula, in terms of reducing symptoms, resolution of fistula and the clinical signs of inflammation at the oral mucose, …
Blue-Light Photodynamic Therapy and Sonidegib for Multiple Basal Cell Carcinomas
This research study is testing combination Blue-light photodynamic therapy and Sonidegib as a possible treatment for people with multiple basal cell carcinoma lesions. Basal cell carcinoma lesions are typically treated by freezing the lesion or surgically removing the lesion. These types of treatment can cause scarring. Photodynamic therapy uses light …
