Tóm tắt

Objectives: The aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of chronic periodontitis treatment using the diode laser method in Odonto - Stomatology Department of Friendship Hospital.
Subjects and methods: Our study was a case-control clinical trial. Sixty patients were randomized into two groups. The group of controls 30 patients with chronic periodontitis who were treated with conventional procedures (cleaning and polishing). The group of cases was 30 patients who were treated
with conventional procedure and laser diode. Patients were followed up for 3 periods: pre-treatment, after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment.
Results: Gingival Index (GI) and Gingival Sulcus Bleeding Index (SBI) decreased after treatment in both groups (p < 0.005). The depth of periodontal pocket and the loss of attachment in the experimental group after 4 weeks were less than in the control group (p < 0.05).
Conclusions: The laser diode should be applied along with cleaning and polishing in the treatment of chronic periodontitis.
