About this trial

The purpose of this clinical trial is to understand whether the combination of periodontal initial treatment under local anesthesia and glucocorticoids can improve the effectiveness of treatment for erosive oral lichen planus. It will also understand the safety of this treatment regimen.

This study is a single-center, parallel-group, randomized self-controlled trial. The researchers will compare the treatment of periodontal initial therapy combined with glucocorticoid therapy under local anesthesia with traditional glucocorticoid therapy to see if the treatment of periodontal initial therapy combined with glucocorticoid therapy under local anesthesia promotes the healing of erosive oral lichen planus.

Participants will:

One side received periodontal initial treatment combined with glucocorticoid under local anesthesia, while the other side received traditional glucocorticoid therapy Clinical examination at 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks after treatment Note down the size of their erosion lesion area and periodontal clinical parameters

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Existence of erosive oral lichen planus that lasts for more than 2 months

Erosive lesions are located in the buccal mucosa and gingival buccal sulcus of the bilateral mandibular posterior teeth area

The erosive lesions are mild to moderate (single or multiple small area erosions; 3mm ≤ longest diameter ≤ 10mm; 9mm2 ≤ total area of erosions ≤ 100mm2), and the degree of erosion on both sides is similar (the difference in the size of erosion on both sides does not exceed ± 25%)

The plaque index in the area of erosive lesions is ≥ 3; Dental calculus index ≥ 2; Gingival index ≥ 2;

Disqualifiers

Pregnant women, lactating women, or women planning to conceive during the trial period

Patients with coagulation dysfunction or other uncontrolled systemic diseases who cannot undergo periodontal treatment

Has undergone basic periodontal treatment within the past 6 months

Individuals with a history of allergy to local anesthetic drugs such as articaine
