Abstract

The present investigation was conducted to evaluate clinically and radiodensitometrically the role of Low Energy Laser in the management of periodontal condition in Smoker Patients. The study was performed on twenty four medically free patients having chronic periodontitis. Radiographic bone density evaluation and clinical periodontal parameters were recorded after the initial phase of plaque control then, the patients were instructed to perform oral hygiene measures. The clinical parameters which were included are; plaque index, gingival index, probing depth and clinical attachment loss. The patients were divided into 2 main groups, the first group received Laser therapy, while the second group served as control group. At baseline, three and six months, bone density and alveolar bone level were radiographically recorded using CBCT. The statistical analysis of the collected clinical and radiographic data revealed an overall clinical as well as Radiometric and Densitometric measurements improvement by time for the laser group in comparison to the control group at baseline, three and six months.
