Resumo: To evaluate the effectiveness of low-power laser in reducing pain associated with Burning Mouth Syndrome (BMS), a systematic review was carried out that analyzed randomized clinical trials (RCT) that compared the use of low-power laser with other treatment strategies for BMS. The studies were selected through a search in the PubMed, Scopus, Embase, SciELO, Web of Science, Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences and Cochrane databases until December 2023. Eight RCT were identified that included 183 cases and 150 controls in total, with higher prevalence od BMS in women. The most affected areas were the tongue and lip. There was improvement in pain with photobiomodulation, however, according to the diversity of photobiomodulation protocols found, new studies are necessary to standardize the photobiomodulation parameters for BMS and, thus, evaluate the control of painful symptoms longitudinally.
