Summary

Aim of the study:
to compare effectiveness of a standard conservative treatmentof alveolitis sicca – a painful complication of an extraction wound healing to the treatmentthereof with bio-stimulating laser.Methods: In our study, the patients with alveolitis sicca were offered to choose betweena standard conservative treatment and a bio-stimulating laser treatment.The patients in the first group (49 persons), who were diagnosed with alveolitis sicca in ourdental office, were treated by a standard conservative treatment – daily exchange of a drainwith antiseptic and benzocain. If due to pain the drain had to be exchanged more often thanevery 24 hours, this was considered as an unsatisfactory therapeutic effect.The patients in the second group (21 persons) were daily treated with bio-stimulating laserradiation of the wound with a modulated ray of the frequency of 2,28 Hz at the infra-red endof the spectrum (830 nm). During each session we applied 2 J/cm2. Thereafter we introduceda gauze drain dipped in saline into the socket. If a satisfactory relief of pain was not obtainedand a patient demanded different type of a treatment, this was considered as an unsatisfactorytherapeutic effect of Results: It has been statistically confirmed that a standard conservative treatment ofalveolitis sicca had significantly better analgesic effect in the observed groups when comparedto

Key words:
alveolitis sicca – low level laser therapy – tamponage of the socket – period ofhealing – analgesic effect
