Effect of LLLT on periodontal status in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2
Session
Dental Science
Description
Aim. To examine the impact of LLLT on the periodontal finding by assessing PD and CAL in patients with chronic periodontitis (CP) and T2DM.
Material and method. 40 individuals with the clinical attachment loss ≥4 mm, comprising at least 50% of affected teeth were examined.In first group (n=20) conservative periodontal treatment was supplemented by laser therapy;in second group (n=20) onlyconservative periodontal treatment was performed. In both groups, the values of PD and CAL were evaluated at first examination, six weeks and three months after therapy. Results.In the first group there is a significant difference between the values of PD at first examination, 6 weeks and 3 months after therapy,for Friedman ANOVA Chi Sqr. (N = 40, df = 2) = 79.51 and p <0.001 (p = 0.000) and the values of CAL at the same time intervals for Friedman ANOVA Chi Sqr. (N = 40, df = 2) = 80.00 and p <0.001 (p = 0.000).
In the second group, there is also significant difference between the values of PD (first examination, six weeks and three months after treatment) for Friedman ANOVA Chi Sqr. (N = 40, df = 2) = 76.00 and p <0.001 (p = 0.000) and CAL values at first examination, 6 weeks and 3 months for Friedman ANOVA Chi Sqr. (N = 40, df = 2) = 80.00 and p <0.001 (p = 0.000).Conclusion. Between the two groups statistically significant differences are evident after 6 weeks and 3 months of therapy, therefore LLLT is effective additional therapy for non-surgical treatment of periodontal disease.
