Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pain Intensity (Self-Reported Visual Analog Scale - VAS, 0-10)

    hange in self-reported pain scores from Day 0 to Day 7 using a 0-10 Visual Analog Scale (VAS), where 0 = no pain and 10 = worst imaginable pain.

    Self-reported Pain Scores Using 0m Visual Analog Scale 10 Pain Score.Total pain improvement over day 0 to day 7

Study Arms (2)

Group I (Experimental):

EXPERIMENTAL

patients subjected to a tooth extraction and immediately given an intraoral PBM session with an EPIC X Biolase diode laser (BIOLASE, Inc. USA), . It was applied at three points in the area: buccal, pala-tal/lingual, and occlusal to stimulate the tissue

Device: laser

Group Sham

SHAM COMPARATOR

patients undergoing tooth extraction and the application of inactive/simulated PBM im-mediately after using the same procedure

Device: laser

Interventions

laserDEVICE

patients subjected to a tooth extraction and immediately given an intraoral PBM session with an EPIC X Biolase diode laser (BIOLASE, Inc. USA), with a voltage of 100-240 V, 1.5 A, a power of 0.5 W, and an application of an energy of 15J per cm², for 10-30 seconds at 1 mm of the tissue with an sterile surgical tip. It was applied at three points in the area: buccal, pala-tal/lingual, and occlusal to stimulate the tissue.
