Evaluation of Healing Process After Laser Asissted Gingivectomy Techniques

The Determination of the Operative Temperature Levels Using Er:YAG Laser and Diode Laser Supported Resective Gingival Surgery and the Clinical and Biochemical Evaluation of it's Effect on Postoperative Imflammation, Epithelization and Pain

• Status: Completed

Summary

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate and determine clinical and biochemical comparison of 3 different methods including Er:YAG laser, diod laser, and conventional techniques. Method: This study was conducted on 32 female, 13 male, a total of 45 individuals (study group patients) with an indication of resective gingival surgery in the anterior region of the maxillar anterior regions and 11 female, 4 men, a total of 15 individuals (negative control group patients) with a healthy gingiva. Clinical periodontal parameters, gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) KGF-2 and VEGF-A levels and gingival temperature levels were recorded before the investigation and during operations with 3 different techniques, gingival temperature was measured. Gingival temperature and epithelization levels in 3, 7, 14 and 21 days; GCF KGF-2 and VEGF-A levels in 14 and 21 days and pain levels between 1-7 days of post-operative healing process were evaluated. Preoperative anxiety and postoperative satisfaction were evaluated through questionnaires

Detailed description

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate and determine clinical and biochemical comparison of 3 different methods including Er:YAG laser, diod laser, and conventional techniques commonly used in resective gingival surgeries in terms of preoperative anxiety, postoperative satisfaction, epithelization, gingival temperature, inflammation and pain levels in post-operative healing process. Method: This study was conducted on 32 female, 13 male, a total of 45 individuals (study group patients) with an indication of resective gingival surgery in the anterior region of the maxillar anterior regions and 11 female, 4 men, a total of 15 individuals (negative control group patients) with a healthy gingiva. Clinical periodontal parameters, gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) KGF-2 and VEGF-A levels and gingival temperature levels were recorded before the investigation and during operations with 3 different techniques, gingival temperature was measured. Gingival temperature and epithelization levels in 3, 7, 14 and 21 days; GCF KGF-2 and VEGF-A levels in 14 and 21 days and pain levels between 1-7 days of post-operative healing process were evaluated.
