| dc.description.abstract | The objective of periodontal surgery is to restore periodontal health and to prevent further relapse. Traditionally scalpels were used in periodontal surgery. Recent advancements in laser have set a milestone in the field of periodontal surgery. So considering the above facts, the objective of this case series is to analyze the pre and post–operative results obtained between conventional periodontal flap surgery and diode laser assisted periodontal flap surgery. Two chronic periodontitis patients with generalized probing pocket depth of more than 7mm was selected for this clinical study. Both the patients had angular bone loss in the upper quadrant and generalized horizontal bone loss in the lower quadrant. So scalpel periodontal surgery was planned for the upper quadrant and diode- laser assisted flap surgery in the lower quadrant. Post-operative results based on clinical parameters and patient perspective were recorded. Clinically significant improvement in probing pocket depth and clinical attachment levels were observed in both the surgical sites. Patient acceptance and comfort were more in laser treated sites compared to conventional surgical sites. | en_US |
