詳細な説明
This prospective, randomized, parallel-group clinical trial was conducted in patients who developed postoperative facial nerve dysfunction following open temporomandibular joint surgery. Eligible participants were randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio to one of two active photobiomodulation treatment groups using a computer-generated block randomization sequence.
Participants assigned to the GRR Laser group received extraoral transcutaneous photobiomodulation using a dual-wavelength 650-nm and 904-nm laser/LED system. Participants assigned to the SiroLaser Advance Plus group received extraoral transcutaneous photobiomodulation using a 660-nm continuous-wave diode laser. In both groups, irradiation was applied along the anatomical projection of the clinically affected facial nerve branches on the operated side.
Photobiomodulation treatment was initiated on the first postoperative day. Treatment was administered daily during the first five postoperative days and every other day thereafter, for a total of 15 treatment sessions. Each treatment session lasted approximately 10 minutes.
Facial nerve function was evaluated on postoperative days 5, 7, 10, 30, and 60. Clinical assessments included the House-Brackmann Grading System and the Sunnybrook Facial Grading System. Patient-reported functional status and quality of life were assessed using the Facial Clinimetric Evaluation (FaCE) Scale. The first standardized outcome assessment was performed on postoperative day 5; therefore, this assessment represented the first standardized postoperative evaluation rather than a pretreatment baseline.

アクティブコンパレータ:SiroLaser Advance Plus Group
Participants received photobiomodulation using the SiroLaser Advance Plus system.
|
Extraoral transcutaneous photobiomodulation was delivered using the SiroLaser Advance Plus system in SoftLase mode.
Irradiation was provided using a 660-nm continuous-wave diode laser with an output power of 25 mW through an 8-mm fiber-optic tip.
Treatment was applied along the anatomical projection of the clinically affected facial nerve branches.
Treatment began on the first postoperative day and consisted of 15 sessions using the same treatment schedule as the GRR Laser group.

Change in Sunnybrook Facial Grading System Score
時間枠:From postoperative day 5 to postoperative day 60
|
The Sunnybrook Facial Grading System was used to assess facial nerve function based on resting symmetry, voluntary facial movement, and synkinesis.
The composite score ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better facial nerve function.
The change score was calculated as the postoperative day 60 score minus the postoperative day 5 score.

House-Brackmann Grading System
時間枠:Postoperative days 5, 7, 10, 30, and 60
|
Facial nerve function was graded using the House-Brackmann Grading System, which classifies facial nerve function from Grade I (normal function) to Grade VI (complete paralysis), with higher grades indicating greater dysfunction.
|
Postoperative days 5, 7, 10, 30, and 60

Facial Clinimetric Evaluation (FaCE) Scale
時間枠:Postoperative days 5, 7, 10, 30, and 60
|
The FaCE Scale is a 15-item patient-reported measure assessing facial movement, facial comfort, oral function, eye comfort, lacrimal control, and social function.
Total scores are transformed to a 0-100 scale, with higher scores indicating better facial function and quality of life.
