简要总结
| Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory condition that results from the buildup of microbial plaque on the teeth and can lead to gingivitis, gingival recession, formation of periodontal pockets, vertical or horizontal alveolar bone resorption, and eventually, mobility and loss of the teeth. Although scaling and root planing is a popular non-surgical method for controlling inflammation, supplementing SRP with lasers has been hypothesized to help remove microbial plaque and reduce the number of periodontal pathogenic bacteria. Perpetuation of the host response by a persistent bacterial challenge disrupts homeostatic mechanisms and results in release of biologic mediators such as cytokines. These mediators of inflammation promote extra cellular matrix destruction in periodontium and stimulate bone resorption. |
Lasers have been extensively used in the treatment of periodontal disease. Among the lasers, the diode laser is one of the most popular laser technologies considering its low price, portability, and ease of use. The choice of the correct laser parameters is of great importance. Low energy settings may be ineffective in the complete removal of pocket epithelium, and high energy settings may cause thermal damage to the surrounding tissues.
To our knowledge, studies suggesting the optimal range of power output and comparing the various power levels of diode laser as an adjuvant to SRP have not yet been conducted. In order to evaluate the efficiency of 810 nm diode laser as an adjuvant to scaling and root planing at various power settings 0.8W, 1W, and 1.5W, the current study also intends to evaluate the effect on GCF levels of IL-1BETA and TNF-ALPHA in Chronic Periodontitis patients.
