- Abstract
Aim: The object of the study is to increase the efficiency of treatment in patients with generalized periodontitis by using a laser in complex treatment. Materials and Methods: Eighty patients underwent for instrumental and X-ray examination of the oral cavity, bacteriological studies of the microbiota of periodontal pockets, clinical analysis of peripheral blood that was taken from the ulnar vein and capillary blood that taken from the gums, as a local treatment carried lesion treatment portion of diode laser. Results: It was determined that opportunistic microflora, dominating before treatment in the contents of periodontal pockets, was not isolated in all patients, but on the 10th day of treatment, the microflora of periodontal pockets had stabilized. Both in the main group and in the comparison group, among neutrophils and monocytes, the populations of phagocytes with a low digesting ability prevailed, however, the proportions of medium- and highly active phagocytes after laser treatment were higher than after treatment with standard conservative therapy. Conclusions: The use of a laser for the therapeutic stage of the complex treatment of patients with generalized periodontitis of the I-II degree, chronic course contributes to the acceleration of reparative processes, a decrease in the degree of destruction in bone tissue, a decrease in the intensity of pain syndrome, a decrease in collateral edema, has an antibacterial effect and a longer stabilization of the periodontal condition.
