Protocol summary

Study aim
Evaluation and comparison the mean values of quantitative electrodiagnostic neurosensory measurement in the tread side with low level laser and the control side , before operation,30 and 90 days after orthognathic surgery
Design
Clinical trials with a control group, with parallel groups, double-blind, randomized.
Settings and conduct
Patients candidates for orthognathic surgery in Alzahra and Kashani hospitals are informed about the study and after approval of inclusion criterias ,are entered to the study. The patients are asked to get electromyography (EMG) test of infraorbital and inferior alveolar nerve bilaterally by the aid of blink reflex to determine the neurosensory status quantitatively before surgery. After surgery, they are exposed to low level laser unilaterally and having the other side as control group with placebo effect of laser on stand-by mode with patient blinded to the side in 2 determined recalls after surgery, neurosensory changes are evaluated with EMG.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:: healthy systemic status: age 18-30, healthy neurological system, Signature of consent form, Patients candidate for orthognathic surgery. Exclusion criteria: Any local or systemic disease, age under 18 and over 30 years, history of trauma and jaw fracture, history of previous maxillofacial surgery, discontent to cooperation, Undesirable splint during operation, Pregnancy, Immune system defects, smoking, Taking muscle relaxant and sedative and anti-inflammatory drugs over the past 3 months, Failure to attend follow-up sessions.
Intervention groups
Control group: Orthognathic surgery without laser exposure. Intervention group: Orthognathic surgery then exposure using GaAlAs low level laser.
Main outcome variables
Quantitative neurosensory changes

Sample size
Target sample size: 12
More than 1 sample in each individual
Number of samples in each individual: 4
upper right jaw, upper left jaw, lower left jaw, lower right jaw
Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
surgical areas (left or right) in each jaws (maxilla and mandible) are randomly divided into two groups (intervention and control) by coin flipping method.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
Each operated jaws of the patients (maxilla or mandible) are randomly divided to right and left sides as intervention or control side (with coin flip) then the patienst are treated unilateral with laser on and the otherside with laser off without awareness of knowing the on or off of the device. then after 2,3 months they are evaluated bilaterally by the EMG technician without knowing the treated or placebo sides

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: one side, called treated site was randomly chosen for low level laser therapy by portable device (GaAlAs) in day 1, 5, 10 and 14 after orthognathic surgery. Exposure areas in lefort I candidates were 10 points in infra-orbital innervation entity between philtrum, lateral alar rim, lower lid, malar eminence and commissure lio line extension. exposure areas in mandible BSSO surgery were 7 points in IAN canal line between angle to menton (linear and 1 cm apart) and 9 points in mental erea (between mental foreman to midline).

Description
Control group: Orthognathic surgery without laser exposure. In the control group (other side) the device is in stand-by mode with no exposure (placebo effect) and the same points with the same duration are pretending to be irradiated as the treated side..
