Here, we have proposed yet another treatment modality, photodynamic therapy, for this condition. The aim of the study was to treat patients having symptomatic oral lichen planus with photodynamic therapy with methylene blue as photosensitizer.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Twenty patients with symptomatic oral lichen planus were included in the study. They were treated with 5% methylene blue mediated photodynamic therapy (light source: <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">X<\/jats:styled-content>enon arc lamp, wavelength: 630\u2009\u00b1\u20095\u2009nm, total dose: 120\u2009<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">J<\/jats:styled-content>\/cm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> per sitting) in four sessions (1st, 4th, 7th and 15th day).
