Modern medicine successfully combines both non-pharmacological and pharmacological ways of treatment in all areas. The examined therapeutic properties of heparin expand its area of application in dental medicine. Physical therapy offers a wide range of treatment options for dental pathology. However, the trend for development and improvement in this direction suggests a new vision over the actuality of time-tested methods like electrophoresis and phonophoresis of heparin.
The aim of this article is to evaluate international publications and experiences regarding the application of electrophoresis and phonophoresis in dental practice.
Materials and methods: documentary-content analysis of available literature about the application of electrophoresis and phonophoresis of heparin in dental medicine.
Results and discussion: The overview of the available literature brings out the efficiency of electrophoresis and phonophoresis of heparin in the complex treatment of mucosal and periodontal diseases, with the advantages of combined physical and pharmacological therapy in mind.
Conclusion: When compliant with the individual case of each patient, the procedure's therapeutic value, and socioeconomic factors, the application of electrophoresis and phonophoresis of heparin in dental medicine is a suitable and effective method of treating mucosal and periodontal inflammation diseases.
