Summary

This study is blind, randomized controlled and have been carried out on children between 6 and 9 years of age, at the Catholic University of Uruguay, Faculty of Health Sciences, Postgraduate School, and surrounding schools. Patients who present temporomandibular disorders, based on the diagnostic criteria will be the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (DC/TMD) were included. The laser used was infrared, power 100 mW ±20%, wavelength 660nm ±10 nm, energy parameter 60J, continuous application. The technique is not invasive, the irradiation point is by continuous and direct transcutaneous application to the radial artery by means of a bracelet that inserts the laser beam. One session has been performed. There was a laser group, a placebo group. Participants in all groups were re-evaluated after the procedure, following the same evaluation procedures used initially, evaluating the effects of ILIB on pain and range of motion.

Conditions

  • Temporomandibular Disorder

Interventions

RADIATION

Vascular photobiomodulation (VPBM)

The participants received a 20-minute single session of VPBM. This noninvasive method involves the use of low-power laser coupled to a bracelet designed to transport the light beam transcutaneously over the radial artery. The laser device (DMC Therapy Ec) delivered irradiation with a power of 100 ± 20 mW, wavelength of 660 ± 10 nm (red light) and energy of 120 J applied continuously, with irradiance of 35 W/cm².

RADIATION

Sham group (simulated vascular photobiomodulation)

Simulated radiation. The participants received a single session.
