Summary
This study looked at 65 adults with oral lichen planus, a chronic mouth condition causing pain and taste changes. Researchers compared two treatments: a light-based therapy (photodynamic therapy) and anti-inflammatory steroid creams. They measured how well patients could taste sweet, sour, salty, and bitter before and after treatment, along with pain and lesion size. The goal was to see which treatment better improves taste and symptoms.
