Abstract: (619 Views)

This study aims to compare previous studies using lasers to evaluate the efficacy and safety of laser therapy adjacent to traditional methods. PubMed and Cochrane search engines were used to identify previous studies of laser assisted periodontal therapy. 29 articles were selected after applying specific keywords, additional filters, inclusion and exclusion criteria between the years 2018 and 2024 out of 107,255 articles. The results have indicated the efficacy of Nd:YAG, diode and CO2 laser for frenectomy.A single study using Er:YAG showed a decrease in operation and bleeding time. Er:YAG, Er, Cr:YSGG and diode have shown an efficacy for second-stage surgery of submerged implants. 2780 nm Er,Cr:YSGG used for crown lengthening surgery have shown a stable height increase after surgery unlike the conventional group. Nd;YAG showed a significant difference while Er,Cr:YSGG haven’t in gingivectomy and osteotomy. Significant improved healing was shown using a ER:YAG and 660,940 and 980 nm diode for regenerative surgical therapy. Laser techniques using a 2940 nm Er:YAG and 980 nm Diode laser were efficient for gingival depigmentation. 1064 nm Nd:YAG showed a significant difference while 810 nm diode, PDT and Er:YAG laser haven’t in comparison with the traditional method in reduction of bacteria. Studies reported a significant reduction in the average dental pain range using 808, 940, 980 nm diode and 2780 nm Er,Cr:YSGG laser. laser assisted treatments in variety of peridontal therapies was efficient and safe considering the wavelength and type of laser for each therapy
