Frequency, cost, and time to re‐treatment after active periodontal therapy

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Supportive periodontal therapy (SPT) reduces the probability of infection reoccurrence further disease progression. Despite that, several patient/tooth related variables have been linked to tooth loss during SPT. This longitudinal study examines the correlation between periodontal staging, grading, initial therapy, and frequency ...

Treatment of peri‐implantitis with diode laser or mucosal flap surgery: A clinical randomized controlled trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis poses a major challenge as contemporary nonsurgical treatments show dissatisfactory results and mucosal flap surgery is often needed. Diode lasers can remove granulation tissue and submucosal bacteria, and if it achieves similar clinical results, then it could be used as a less invasive first approach.
