ABSTRACT

Se describen losresultados de un estudio clínico observacional sobre laserterapia en la fase postoperatoria de 26 pacientes sometidos a reducción de prognatismo mandibular con osteotomía sagital bilateral de rama ascendente (OSBMKS). Todos los procedimientos de cirugía ortognática fueron realizados de enero a diciembre de 2002, en el Servicio de Cirugía Maxilofacial del CMN SXXI del IMSS aplicando en el lado derecho de la región intervenida hasta 10 sesiones de láser diódico, siendo el izquierdo el lado control, observando mejoría en disminución del dolor y del cuadro inflamatorio agudo en relación a los pacientes a quienes no se aplicó esta terapia. Se evaluaron los resultados con medición clínica del edema postoperatorio a las 24 horas, 72 horas, 8 días, 15 días y se verificaron los cambios histológicos y radiográficos ocurridos en el proceso de cicatrización ósea a los 30 días, 6 y 8 semanas posterior a la cirugía ortognática.


This study describes the prevalence of patients with dentofacial deformities attended in the Maxillofacial Surgery Department of Hospital de Especialidades del Centro Médico Nacional Siglo XXI of the IMSS, during January to December 2002. Twenty-six patients received postoperative laser therapy in the right area of the mandible ramus, after bilateral sagittal modified osteotomy (BSMKSO). The results with laser therapy showed less pain and edema in comparison other patients without this therapy. The results were carried out after 24 hours, 3 days, 8 days and 15 days, and after 10 treatments of laser therapy. The X-Ray and biopsy showed bone healing 30 days, six and eight weeks after orthognatic surgery procedures.

ABSTRACT

The term Laser means light amplifed by stimulated emmiting radiation. It has been used for the last 30 years in different medical areas, including dentistry. Basically it transfers an external energy in lightning or luminic energy. There are two types of laser: surgical and therapeutic. The biological reactions of the different tissues, depend on their optical cualities. In dentistry, it has been used in endodontics to clean seal accesory canals; in operative dentistry: as analgesic antiinflamatory in surgical procedures. Taking into account the cautions recommended, it offers a good choise of treatment for our patients.
