Er,Cr:YSGG and Diode Lasers in the Treatment of Peri-implantitis

Summary

In this study, 940 nm diode laser and 2780 nm erbium, chromium doped: yttrium, scandium, gallium, garnet (Er, Cr: YSGG) laser were used in the non-surgical treatment of peri-implant diseases in addition to mechanical treatment. And the effects of dental lasers on clinical parameters and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) and tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) levels in peri-implant crevicular fluid were evaluated.

Conditions

• Peri-Implantitis

Interventions

DEVICE

Traditional non surgical mechanical therapy

Mechanical instrumentation in all groups was made with titanium Gracey curettes (8mm in diameter, Langer ½, item code: 7103, Kohler Medizintechnik, GmbH \& Co, Ltd, Stockach, Germany).

DEVICE

Diode laser assisted non-surgical mechancal therapy

One week after mechanical treatment, a 940 nm diode laser (Ezlase®, Biolase Technology, Inc., San Clemente, CA) with a 300 µm diameter optical fiber tip applied approximately 1 mm above the most apical part of the peri-implant pocket, parallel to the implant surface (E3-9 mm).

DEVICE

Er, Cr: YSGG laser-assisted non-surgical mechanical therapy

1 week after mechanical treatment, 2780 nm Er, Cr: YSGG laser (Waterlase®, Biolase Technology, Inc., San Clemente, CA), short pulse '' H '' with 500 µm diameter fiberoptic periodontal tip (RFPT5-14 mm) mode has been applied.
