Anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effect of “Barva-Flex/BIR” device radiation in its application for prosthetic stomatitis treatment

Abstract

The anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects of LED radiation on the oral mucosa when used in the combined treatment of prosthetic stomatitis were investigated. The test evidenced that the light radiation of Barva-Flex/BIR device (λ = 470 nm and λ = 940 nm) contributes to the reduction of inflammatory changes in oral mucosa and has a significant antimicrobial effect. LED radiation holds promise for use in the combined stomatitis treatment.
