Comparison of Er:YAG and Er, Cr:YSGG Laser in the Treatment of Oral Leukoplakia Lesions Refractory to the Local Retinoid Therapy

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of Er:YAG and Er, Cr:YSGG laser in the treatment of oral leukoplakia refractory to conventional retinoid therapy. Materials and methods: The study sample consisted of 54 patients (16 men and 38 women) who were histopathologically diagnosed with oral leukoplakia that was refractory to conventional retinoid therapy. Patients were randomly allocated into two groups according to the type of the laser used for treatment of oral leukoplakia: Group 1. Er:YAG laser ; Group 2. Er, Cr:YSGG laser. Patients were recalled at 6 months and 1 year after treatment to evaluate possible recurrence and assess the patients’ postoperative quality of life. Results: After initial ablation, the degree of residual lesion was significantly greater in the Er:YAG laser group (74.1%), compared with the Er, Cr:YSGG group (18.5%) (p=0.0001). Six months and 1 year after the second ablation, there was no lesion recurrence in either laser group. Fourteen days after the initial ablation, the visual analog scale (VAS) pain rating and the total oral health impact profile score fell significantly in both groups (p<0.0001). However, in the Er, Cr:YSGG laser group, the average value of the VAS rating was significantly lower than in the Er:YAG laser group (p=0.039). Conclusions: The Er:YAG and Er, Cr:YSGG lasers showed similar efficacy in the treatment of oral leukoplakia and resulted in full postoperative recovery without recurrence after 1 year of follow-up.
