Cryotherapy

Cryotherapy can be done in two ways: 1. Open technique: Using cotton swabs or a cryogun spray, the cryogen is delivered directly to the lesion in this technique. 2. Closed technique: Cryo-probes are used to apply the cryogen to the lesion in this procedure. The spray's nozzle of the Cryogun spray -50 ◦C was situated 1 cm away from the skin's surface and applied on the oral lesion for 30 seconds. Each freezing cycle lasted 10 to 30 seconds, with the subsequent 60-second thaw interval lasting twice as long as the freezing time. The ice ball that formed during freezing was totally melted before the subsequent freezing process could begin. The application process should went from the core out to the edges. The management of lesions that are too big to be frozen by a single spray requires many overlapping treatments of liquid nitrogen. Mucoceles and erosive lichen planus took 30 to 50 seconds to freeze, whereas fibromas and leukoplakia took 60 to 70 seconds.
