Intrabony defect management with a bone graft (hydroxyapatite and β-tricalcium phosphate) alone and in combination with a diode laser: A randomized control trial
Abstract:Objectives:
The current research was conducted to evaluate the use of a diode laser and a bone graft (hydroxyapatite [HA] + β-tricalcium phosphate [β-TCP]) in healing of intrabony defects
Materials and Methods:
In this split-mouth evaluation, 40 patients with bilateral intrabony defects were treated with, Group I (control) - bone graft alone (HA + β-TCP) and Group II, (test) - bone graft with a diode laser. The clinical and radiologic parameters of all … Show more
