Popis: This study aims to investigate the effect of compound topical anesthetic (CTA) application combined with photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) on the level of pain perceived during placement of miniscrews and 24 h post the procedure in the buccal side of the maxillary bone. This randomized, prospective, single-center, split-mouth, double-blinded study included 25 subjects (12 males and 13 females, aged 16 to 35). Two anesthetic techniques before implantation were performed including Profound gel +PBM with 980 nm diode laser and local anesthesia with 2% lidocaine hydrochloride. Then, the miniscrews with the size of 1.6 mm in diameter and 8 mm in length were placed with a hand driver in the buccal side of the maxillary bone. The pain immediately after miniscrew placement (T1), also 12 h (T2), and 24 h (T3) post the procedure were collected by visual analog scale (VAS). Data were analyzed by SPSS version 22. There were no statistically significant differences in mean VAS scores within or between CTA combined with PBMT or injection applications, immediately after miniscrew placement (P = 0.75), 12 h after miniscrew placement (P = 0.4), and 24 h after miniscrew placement (P = 1.0). Compound topical anesthetic combined with PBMT provided adequate local anesthesia for the placement of miniscrews in the buccal side of the maxillary bone.
