Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a new suggestion for OLP treatment PDT is a successful treatment mo- dality for premalignant and malignant diseases of head and neck,gastrointestinal tract, lung, and skin In this study, the effect of photodynamic therapy with topical corticosteroid in oral lichen planus patients was compared

Detailed description

In this study, the efficacy of toluidine blue-mediated photodynamic therapy and topical triamcinolone acetonide 0.2% on decreasing pain and size of OLP lesions was compared. This randomized, clinical trial compared the therapeutic effect of photodynamic therapy on symptomatic OLP (atrophic/ erosive/ulcerative forms) with triamcinolone acetonide 0.2%. The protocol of the clinical trial, which was conducted according to the ethical principles of Helsinki Group I toluidine blue-mediated photodynamic therapy Group II photodynamic therapy GroupIII laser sham + triamcinolone acetonide 0.2%
