Abstract
A clinical trial comparing new-type Aphtasolon (which base material was improved old-type Aphtasolon) and old-type Aphtasolon in respect of adhesion time and improvement of the symptoms was performed.
Thirty patients (10 to 71 years old, 14 males and 16 females) and 30 volunteered dental students participated in this study. To evaluate this study, case cards (Figs. 1 and 2) were used.
The results can be summarized as follows :
1) New-type Aphtasolon was better than old-type Aphtasolon considering“adhesiveness, ”“easy to apply, ”“rough feeling, ”“taste.”No difference was observed considering“slimy and sticky feeling” (Table 1) .
2) It is considered that both the new and the old-type Aphtasolon, were useful for improvement of the diseases tested. Both types of Aphtasolon were effect for spontaneous pain and contact pain right after application, and gradual effect on other symptoms such as burning sensation, rubor, swelling and bleeding (Tables 1-11) .
