Clinical Trial Summary

Periodontitis is an infectious disease that causes destruction of periodontal tissues with complex etiology that develops due to local and systemic factors. Host-derived enzymes, cytokines and proinflammatory markers are the main elements that play a role in this degradation. New techniques such as non-surgical or surgical methods combined with laser application are used for its treatment. The subjects were divided into two groups as "Individuals Applied with Diode Laser in Addition to Non-Surgical Periodontal Treatment" (Laser group) and "Individuals with Non-Surgical Periodontal Treatment (SRP)" (Control group). While only non-surgical periodontal treatment was applied to individuals in the control group; In the laser group, diode laser was applied in addition to this treatment. All individuals were examined 1 and 3 months after treatment.The scaling root planing (SRP) procedure was performed mechanically with gracey curettes under local anesthesia. The diode laser applied to the study group was applied parallel to the gingival sulcus at 0.80W power, 940 nm wavelength and 0.80 J / s energy level in continuous phase. Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) samples were taken without any procedure in order not to change the amount and content. All clinical parameters were also measured by the same investigator before SRP and in all participants. After this treatment, the participants were re-examined in the 1st and 3rd months for control purposes and GCF samples were taken from the same regions again and the clinical parameters were measured again by the same researcher. GCF samples were stored at -20 degrees Celsius until ELISA studies were performed. Clinical parameters (pocket depth, clinical attachment loss, bleeding on probing, gingival index, plaque index) and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) sampling were obtained at each control. IL-1β, IL-10, IL-17, OPG, RANKL, TWEAK, Sclerostin levels in GCF samples were measured with ELISA method. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of diode laser application in addition to non-surgical treatment in periodontitis treatment clinically and biochemically and to assess the potential biomarkers for use.
