Application of Lasers in Treatment of Periodontitis
Journal Title: International Journal of Research and Review - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 8
Abstract
Lasers are beneficial in debridement of calculus, removal of smear layer from root surface, and disinfection of root. Lasers have bactericidal action. Curettage of pocket epithelium can also be done with lasers. Lasers can be used for soft tissue procedures. However use of lasers is in infancy. Further studies are needed to validate use of lasers either alone or in combination to conventional treatment of periodontitis.
