Table 3.
Comparison of mean VAS scores between two studied groups before and after treatment. This data demonstrated that burning and pain sensation intensity was reduced in both groups. The VAS score after treatment in nanofibrous mat group was significantly less than the control group, confirming that this treatment was more effective in removing OLP symptoms from patients’ viewpoints.
| Studied groups | Number of patients | Nanofibrous mats (case) | Triamcinolone ointment | P-value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mean VAS scores before treatment | 10 | 6.1 ± 1.663 | 5.6 ± 1.429 | 0.7763 |
| Mean VAS scores after treatment | 10 | 2.7 ± 0.949 | 3.7 ± 1.085 | 0.0416 |
