Evaluation of the effect of a diode laser on the state of periodontal pathogenic microorganisms in patients with early manifestations of chronic inflammation of periodontic tissues

Abstract

Relevance . Chronic inflammation of periodontal tissues in young people. Purpose. The aim of the work was to study of the effectiveness of the influence of a diode laser on the state of the microbiome of various biotopes of the oral cavity in patients with early manifestations of chronic inflammation. Materials and methods . 70 patients (66.7%) with chronic gingivitis and periodontitis of mild severity, aged 23–35 years, were examined. A control group was consisted of 35 patients (33.3%) with clinically intact periodontium (CIP). Researchers in this group have the goal of determining critical values (22.9%) and conducting the proposed range of treatment and preventive measures. Clinical and microbiological research methods were used to assess the effectiveness of the proposed treatment and prophylactic complex. Results. Our results showed high efficiency of the treatment and prophylactic complex in the treatment of early manifestations of chronic inflammation of periodontal tissues. The use of the method of simultaneous processing of the studied biotopes of the oral cavity in the complex of treatment and prophylactic measures has a positive trend. Under the influence of this effect significant elimination of periodontal pathogens of the first order and a decrease in the degree of chronic inflammation (p < 0.05) from the initial data are observed in patients with early manifestations of chronic inflammation in periodontal tissues. Conclusion. The data obtained on the basis of the study indicate that the developed treatment and oral care are an effective method for correcting the state of the microbiome of the studied biotopes.
