Protocol summary

Study aim
Evaluation and comparison the mean values of quantitative neurosensory measurement after orthognatic surgury with low level laser in patients who want Lefort I and sagittal split osteotomy surgery in 12 patients(6female and 6 male)
Design
Clinical trials with a control group, with parallel groups, double-blind, randomized.6 patients in control group and 6 patients in Intervention group.
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. After surgery(Lefort I and sagittal split osteotomy 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 by clinical neurosensory tests(Thermal test,two point descrimination,light touch,pin prick)
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:: healthy systemic status: age 18-30, healthy neurological system, informed consent, 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,lack of cooperation,Pregnancy, Immune system defects, smoking, Taking muscle relaxant and sedative and anti-inflammatory drugs over the past 3 months.
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 patients are treated unilateral with laser on and the other side with laser off without awareness of knowing the on or off of the device. Then after 1,3 months they are evaluated bilaterally with clinical neurosensory tests by the person who dont know about intervention or control side.

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: one side, called treated site will randomly choose 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 are 10 points in infra-orbital innervation entity between philtrum, lateral alar rim, lower lip, malar eminence and commissure lip line extension. exposure areas in mandible BSSO surgery are 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).

Treatment - Devices

2

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.
