على الرغم من شيوع استعمال أجهزة الليزر اللين ( laser Soft ) في طب الأسنان في الوقت
الحالي و خصوصا في مجال جراحة الفم و الوجه و الفكين بوصفه وسيلة مهمة للـسيطرة
على الوذمة التالية للجراحة الوجهية الفكية (حسب ادعاء الشركات المنتجة لها) إلاّ أن قلّة
وجود بحوث حيادية تطرق باب هذا الموضوع بشكل علمي كان الدافع لنا للقيام بهذا البحث
الذي من خلاله و في الفترة الممتدة من عام 1996 حتى عام 2003 قمنا بإجراء 160 عملية
قلع جراحي لأرحاء ثالثة سفلية منطمرة عند 80 مريضاً تم اختيارهم للبحث وفـق معـايير
دقيقة و جرى استخدام جهاز الليزر اللين بعد إجراء العملية في الطرف الأيسر و تمت بعـد
ذلك مقارنة نتيجة التطبيق مع الطرف الشاهد الأيمن الذي لم يطبق فيه الليزر اللـين أو أي
وسيلة أخرى للسيطرة على الوذمة، و قد تبين نتيجة البحث أن الفائدة العظيمة التي تتباهى
بها الشركات المنتجة ليست حقيقية و أن البحث المقارن الحيادي قد أثبت أن استخدام الليزر
اللين ليس له تأثيرات باهرة في تخفيف الوذمة بعد جراحة قلع الأرحاء المنطمرة أو في منع
حدوث وذمة شديدة، مما يحتّم ضرورة توخي الحذر عند قـراءة البحـوث الـصادرة عـن
الشركات المنتجة لتلك الأجهزة الليزرية و التي غالباً ما تصور أجهزتها علـى أنّهـا ذات
مفعول سحري.
Although the use of Soft Laser appliances has become common in dental
practice especially in the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery as an
important method for controlling the edema that may occur after oral and
maxillofacial surgery (as said by the manufacturing companies ),there
are just a few neutral researches that deal scientifically with this subject, so
that is our motive to do in this research .In this study, and between May
1996 and May 2003, 80 patients were carefully selected so 160 lower third
molars were surgically extracted , the soft laser was applied on the left side
and after that the results compared with the results of the right side
operations which were not subjected to any method for controlling edema.
The results were disappointing and the great advantages that were
confirmed by the manufacturing companies were not true while the neutral
comparative research emphasized that the usage of Soft laser treatment has
no magical effect in reducing or preventing the occurrence of severe edema
after the surgery of impacted lower third molars , so we want to warn every
dentist to be careful when reading a research sponsored by the
manufacturing companies of Soft laser appliances.
