White lesions are among the most common clinical
problems seen by clinicians who manage diseases of the oral
mucosa including recurrent aphtous stomatitis, erythema
multiformc, leukoplakia and lichen planus(I,2,3).
Lichen planus is a relatively common mucocutaneous
disease of unknown etiology. Affections are restricted to the skin
and/or mucosal surfaces(4,S). Compared with skin lesions, the
mucosal affections have a far more chronic nature.. They are
usually multiple and often have a symmetrical distribution(6).
Many and widely varied therapeutic approaches have been
effered for the control and/or cure of white lesions(s-g). Bowever,
steroid medication in a variety of forms and methods is still. the
most common and perhaps the most useful of all treatment
- approaches. Bearing in mind, the systemic administration of
corticosteroids has the potential side effects that can not be
ignored including hypertension, osteoporosis, glycosuria, impaired
wound healing and suppression of normal adrenal function(IO).
The absence of complete remission of white lesions
especially in lichen planus, the high recurrence rate and exacerbation
of white lesions and the iatrogenic problems derived from
cortico-therapy have led to the search for alternative treatments.
Cryotherapy was put forward by POSWillo(II),as the treatment
of choice for oral white mucosal lesions. From the few
