Introduction: Periodontitis and diabetes have a combined systemic local effect on tooth supporting structure has been reported for decades. The gold standard treatment protocol would be scaling root planing (SRP), which when with laser therapy an additional benefit in the reduction of clinical parameters glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels. Objective: To evaluate effectiveness without Diode app...

abstract: background and aim:  micro-ultrasonic tips are similar to hand instruments in their clinical application of subgingival scaling.  in spite of their favorable results, excessive penetration of mini-insert ultrasonic scalers to the bottom of gingival pocket may cause harmful effects. the aim of this study was to evaluate the immediate effect of root instrumentation with gracey curettes ...

Background and Objectives: The most common treatment procedure for periodontitis gingivitis is scaling root planing, which perceived as a painful dental treatment. current study aimed to assess pain perception analgesics consumption after planing (SRP) in patients with stage II III periodontitis. Materials Methods: Before starting the SRP, all periodontal parameters, such probing depth (PD), bl...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO2) as an adjunct to scaling and root planing (SRP) in the treatment of severe cases of chronic periodontitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS In 20 patients diagnosed with severe generalized chronic periodontitis (pockets>7mm) with bleeding on probing, SRP was rendered in all pockets. Additionally, five consecutive hyperbaric sessions w...

In recent years, the combination of laser light and photosensitizer known as photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been used in periodontal therapy. However, there are not enough clinical studies to fully evaluate the effects of PDT on the periodontal tissues. This microbiological study examined the effects of PDT on the periodontal bacteria in combination with scaling and root planing (SRP) in the sa...

OBJECTIVES Scaling and root planing (SRP) is one of the most commonly used procedures during periodontal treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the root surface roughness after SRP with erbium: yttrium aluminum garnet (Er:YAG) laser compared to ultrasonic and hand instruments. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this experimental study, 56 extracted sound single-rooted teeth with moderate leve...

introduction: due to penetration of pathogenic bacteria into the periodontal tissues in moderate to severe periodontitis, the mechanical methods are not sufficient in these cases. therefore, administration of local/systemic antibiotic is recommended following mechanical root debridement. however, side effects of antibiotics such as microbial resistance and patient allergy led to development of ...

Introduction: A multifactorial condition characterised by an increase in size is called gingival enlargement. Most common form drug induced Different treatment options to manage overgrowth are categorised as non-surgical approach and surgical approach. Non-surgical mechanical periodontal gold standard of therapy first recommended control infections. Objective: To determine clinical effect scali...

statement of the problem subgingival irrigation with an antimicrobial agent after scaling and root planing (srp) is assumed to be able to kill the bacteria left behind after mechanical debridement. 3% h2o2 is used in the treatment of periodontal disease and it has been shown effective in killing anaerobic pathogens. purpose the aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical effects of subgingiv...
