Overview
Brief Summary
The title of the study is Comparative evaluation of LASER biostimulation and LED photoactivation using methylene blue in the treatment of periodontitis A split mouth randomized controlled trial. A total of 112 sites from periodontitis patients satisfying the inclusion and exclusion criteria and providing consent for study participation will be selected and split into two groups. Group 1 will be allocated with 56 sites and will be receiving Laser biostimulation adjunct to scaling and root planing with the biostimulation at 1st,15th,30th and 45th day. Group 2 with 56 sites and will be receiving LED photoactivation using methylene blue adjunct to scaling and root planing with the activation at 1st,15th,30th and 45th day. The clinical parameters such as Bleeding on probing, Plaque index, Probing pocket depth and clinical attachment loss will be evaluated and compared in both the groups pre operatively and 2 months post operatively.
