GROUNDBREAKING LOW-LEVEL LASER THERAPY POTENTIAL IN GAG REFLEX CONTROL: DE - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A severe gag reflex is an impediment in successful completion of certain dental procedures as it leads to avoidance of dental treatment for some and for others sedation or general anesthesia remains the only option to cope with the dental treatment. Even the basic dental procedures like impression making especially of the upper arch leads to increased levels of stress suffered by patients and often lead to salivation, lacrimation, or even vomiting. Hence, the present study was taken up to evaluate the effect of low-level laser therapy in stimulating the PC 6 acupressure point for reducing the gag reflex. Gag reflex was evaluated by performing the nerve stimulating test. In patients having gag reflex, stimulation of PC6 point was done by low-level laser.
