Summary
a randomized controlled single-blinded study. the hypothesis of this clinical trial is that disjunctive use of diode laser improve the clinical parameters of periodontists , and there are significant difference between the conventional treatment and diode laser as an adjunct
Detailed description
A total of 240 sites with deep pocket in 30 systemically healthy patients with chronic periodontitis, from subjects attending Jordan University of Science and Technology (JUST) Postgraduate Dental Clinic (PDC), the age range were (28-55) year, between Apr 2017 and Oct 2017. Those patients were enrolled in a randomized controlled single-blinded study. For each patient, full medical and dental history and periodontal examination were recorded. Clinical parameters such as pocket depth (PD), clinical attachment loss (CAL), gingival index (GI) and plaque index (PI) were evaluated at the baseline. All Patients underwent initial periodontal therapy; SRP which was performed using a sonic device and hand instruments and the sites were divided randomly into two groups SRP alone and SRP with adjunctive diode 810 nm laser in the contralateral sites in the same jaw. The Clinical parameters have been re-evaluated at 1, 3 and 6 months to test the effectiveness of (810 nm, 2 W, pulsed mode, for 20 sec) in treatment of CP. Diode laser therapy was applied to periodontal pockets in the same day of treatment.
