Adjunctive Diode Laser Therapy in Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy

Evaluation of the Effect of Adjunctive Diode Laser Therapy in Mechanical Scaling and Root Surface Debridement in Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy

Sponsor

Tel Aviv University

Enrollment

20 participants

Start Date

Jan 1, 2026

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Periodontal Disease Periodontal Attachment Loss Periodontal Pockets

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of adjunctive application of diode laser to mechanical, non-surgical root surface debridement in patients attending periodontal office. The main question it aims to answer is: To compare the clinical effectiveness of adjunctive application of a 940-nm diode laser with root surface debridement to the effectiveness of root surface debridement alone. This study is a split-mouth design, where each quadrant will be randomly allocated to one of the following groups: Control group (root surface debridement - RsD): scaling and root planing alone. Laser group (RsD + laser): scaling and root planing with adjunctive diode laser therapy Quadrants will be randomly allocated to the treatment groups

Eligibility
