Abstract :
Aims: The aim of this paper was to provide a comprehensive review of using low-level laser therapy (LLLT) as a therapeutic method for recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS), including analyzing its underlying mechanisms, clinical applications, and potential benefits. Information Methods: A database search was conducted to identify relevant papers investigating the use of LLLT for RAS treatment. Articles published in scientific journals and selected for review in Science Direct, Google Scholar, and PubMed were categorized and analyzed. Findings: During the initial search, a total of 88 articles were found. Five phases were performed to select articles, and eventually, 8 papers that met the inclusion criteria were chosen. Conclusion: This literature review supports the idea that LLLT is a non-invasive and potentially effective therapy for RAS symptoms by accelerating the healing process and having beneficial effects in reducing pain and inflammation.
