Description

Periodontopathy is a chronic disease affecting the supporting structures of teeth. Mucogingival anomalies, such as frenulum attachment, impact its prognosis. Frenulectomy can be performed using conventional surgical methods or lasers. The aim of this paper is to analyze the impact of frenulum attachment on the periodontium and compare removal methods. A systematic review of literature published since 2015 was conducted, comparing standard surgical methods with diode kaser interventions in frenectomy procedures. The findings indicated that Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) with a diode laser offers a shorter operative time, better patient tolerance, reduced bleeding, and no need for sutures.
