Numerous drugs have been used with dissimilar results, but most treatments are empiric. However, to date, the most commonly used and useful agents for the treatment of OLP are topical corticosteroids.\n                    <jats:bold>\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Materials and Methods<\/jats:italic>\n                      :\n                    <\/jats:bold>\n                    The investigators studied a prospective cohort of 13 patients affected by OLP, who received biostimulation with a pulsed diode laser (GaAs).
