Laser diagnostics of temperature on the surface of the skin of the facial part of the skull after treatment physiotherapy

Keywords:

physical therapy in dentistry, LED therapy, polarized light, temperature change

Summary:

Physiotherapy in the form factor of the light is also becoming more widely used in dentistry. It is used for the purpose of analgesic and anti-inflammatory as well as in the regeneration of the mandible. In the conducted study assessed the change in temperature on the skin coatings facial part of the skull and neck as a result of the application LED therapy and polarized light using laser thermometer CASON CA 380. The study was conducted in 150 patients aged 20-40 years, who were divided into four test groups and a control group. In the study group used the synergism of the electromagnetic field and light energy LED applicators R, IR, RIR and polarized light. Patients in the control were subjected to an electromagnetic field with an applicator elliptical, without any factor of the light. It has been found that the application of the light results in a statistically significant increase of skin temperature on the surface of the facial skull and neck.
