Se presenta una revisión de la literatura actualizada sobre la aplicación de láser de baja intensidad en el manejo de los trastornos temporomandibulares (TTM). Dado que los TTM son una causa principal de dolor orofacial no dental, la reducción sintomática es un objetivo terapéutico clave. La terapia con láser de baja intensidad se ha sugerido por sus efectos bioestimuladores y analgésicos. Tras una búsqueda bibliográfica en Cochrane y Medline, se seleccionaron seis publicaciones de 162. Los hallazgos indican que el láser de baja intensidad parece ofrecer beneficios en pacientes con TTM, aunque establecer un protocolo terapéutico estandarizado sigue siendo un desafío debido a la complejidad diagnóstica y de tratamiento de estos trastornos. La evidencia sugiere un potencial prometedor para esta modalidad terapéutica.
Background: Temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD), which is considered the main cause of non-dental orofacial pain. Therefore, treatment must be focused on the reduction of symptoms. In this sense, low intensity laser therapy is suggested to have bio stimulating and analgesic effects. Methods: A Cochrane and Medline databases search were conducted between June and December of 2017. The terms used for the different searches were “temporomandibular joint”, “laser therapy”, disorders, laser and treatment. Findings: 6 publications were selected from a total of 162. They were stratified using the SORT criteria (Strength of Recommendation Taxonomy). Conclusion: TMD is a complex disorder that can be challenging to diagnose and treat. The efficacy of laser in the treatment of TMD is rather promising. According to the literature reviewed, low level laser seems to have a benefit on patients with TMD, however, it is still difficult to establish a therapeutic protocol for TMD.
