Low level laser treatments have been used to treat painful trigger points in myofascial pain syndrome (MPS), but the effectiveness of the appropriate laser type and parameters is still uncertain. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of different types of low level laser treatment (LLLT) in reducing pain levels, changing oxygen saturation and bite force in patients with MPS.
