Conditions
Periodontitis
Interventions
Drug: Dental diode laser device Paiwei™(Zhengzhou Gata biotechnology Co.,Ltd.,China) which was 650-670nm with a power of 160mw-220mw.
Registration Number
NCT05664087
Lead Sponsor
The Dental Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine
Brief Summary

Main Purpose: To evaluate the effect of photodynamic therapy on soft tissue healing after tooth extraction at periodontal infection site, and to compare the effect on pain degree and bone tissue remodeling after tooth extraction.

Detailed Description

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT) on soft tissue healing and bone remodeling in tooth extraction sockets after tooth extraction. The enrolled patients will be randomized into two groups. The control group used conventional tooth extraction to clean the wound, and the experimental group used photodynamic therapy to help clean the wound. Seven days and 14 days after extraction, the area of extraction socket was measured, the healing rate of extraction socket was calculated, and Landry, Turnbull and Howley soft tissue healing index was measured. The degree of pain was recorded at 6h, 1 day, 2 days and 3 days after tooth extraction. Bone remodeling indexes were measured at 1 month after tooth extraction.

(The size of the tooth extraction wound area at 7 days)/(The size of the tooth extraction wound area at baseline)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes in Bone Mineral densitybaseline, at 1 month

Changes in Bone Mineral density

Landry, Turnbull and Howley soft tissue healing indexbaseline, at 7 days; at 14days
