970-nm Diode Laser Versus Liquid Nitrogen Cryotherapy in Maxillary Labial Frenectomy (MLF-DL-KRYO)
Comparison of Salivary Cortisol Response and Early Postoperative Outcomes Following 970-nm Diode Laser and Liquid Nitrogen Cryotherapy in Maxillary Labial Frenectomy: A Randomized Single-Blind Clinical Trial
This prospective, randomized, single-blind, assessor-blinded, parallel-group clinical trial aims to compare the effects of 970-nm diode laser and liquid nitrogen cryotherapy in patients requiring maxillary labial frenectomy.
The primary objective is to compare the change in salivary cortisol levels from baseline to postoperative day 2 between the two treatment groups. Secondary objectives include comparison of postoperative pain, edema, interincisal mouth opening, analgesic consumption, operation duration, state anxiety, clinical wound healing, and adverse events.
Eligible adult patients with an indication for maxillary labial frenectomy will be randomly assigned to receive either 970-nm diode laser frenectomy or liquid nitrogen cryotherapy. Salivary cortisol samples and clinical outcomes will be assessed during the early postoperative follow-up period.

Detailní popis
Maxillary labial frenulum abnormalities may be associated with diastema, plaque accumulation, periodontal irritation, gingival recession, oral hygiene difficulty, functional discomfort, and esthetic concerns. Frenectomy may be indicated when the frenulum is hypertrophic, short, thick, or inserted close to the interdental papilla.
Conventional scalpel frenectomy is effective but may be associated with intraoperative bleeding, need for suturing, postoperative pain, edema, and reduced patient comfort. Minimally invasive approaches such as diode laser surgery and cryotherapy may offer potential advantages in oral soft tissue procedures.
This study will compare two minimally invasive approaches for maxillary labial frenectomy: 970-nm diode laser and liquid nitrogen cryotherapy. Participants will be randomized into two parallel groups. In the diode laser group, frenectomy will be performed using a 970-nm diode laser at 2 W in continuous wave mode with a 320-micrometer sterile fiber tip using a contact technique. In the liquid nitrogen cryotherapy group, open-spray cryotherapy will be applied to the maxillary labial frenulum region with two freeze-thaw cycles.
The primary endpoint is the change in salivary cortisol level from baseline to postoperative day 2. Secondary endpoints include postoperative day 7 salivary cortisol change, postoperative pain measured by visual analog scale, edema, interincisal mouth opening, total analgesic consumption, operation duration, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-State score, Landry, Turnbull and Howley wound healing index scores, and postoperative complications or adverse events.
All procedures and salivary sampling will be standardized and performed in the morning to reduce the influence of circadian variation on cortisol measurements. The study will be conducted at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Faculty of Dentistry, Kutahya Health Sciences University.

Experimentální: 970-nm Diode Laser Frenectomy
Participants randomized to this arm will undergo maxillary labial frenectomy using a 970-nm diode laser.
The procedure will be performed with a SiroLaser Advance device at 970 nm wavelength, 2 W power, continuous wave mode, and a 320-micrometer sterile fiber tip using a contact technique.
The total laser application time will be standardized as 2 minutes.
The surgical area will not be sutured and will be left to heal by secondary intention.

Experimentální: Liquid Nitrogen Cryotherapy
Participants randomized to this arm will receive liquid nitrogen cryotherapy applied to the maxillary labial frenulum region using an open-spray technique.
Two freeze-thaw cycles will be performed; each freezing cycle will last 15 seconds, with passive complete thawing between cycles.
No mechanical excision will be performed after cryotherapy.
The target tissue is expected to be eliminated through cryogenic necrosis and secondary healing.
The surgical area will not be sutured.
