After 3 months of nonsurgical periodontal treatment, 360 patients with moderate or severe periodontitis were randomly assigned to 2000 international unit (IU)/d vitamin D3, 1000 IU/d vitamin D3, or placebo. Background of the Controversy. Insufficient evidence to support the clinical application of either CO(2), Nd:YAG, Nd:YAP, or different diode lasers, No consistent evidence for efficacy of laser as an adjunct to NSPT in adults with chronic periodontitis, Plaque, BOP, gingivitis, PPD, CAL, and GR, No beneficial effect of a pulsed Nd:YAG laser compared to ultrasonics and/or hand instrumentation in the initial periodontitis, No evidence of effectiveness of Er:YAG laser compared to SRP, PPD, CAL, GR, Full mouth plaque and bleeding scores, Routine use of PDT for clinical management of periodontitis cannot be recommended, PDT used alone or adjunctive to scaling root planning, PDT adjunctive to conventional treatment provides short-term benefits, but microbiological outcomes are contradictory. For optimal treatment results, systemic risk factors must be modified or eliminated. METHODS. Hence, all three treatment modalities may be recommended for debridement in the initial treatment of chronic periodontitis, Traditional quadrant approach and full-mouth debridement could be equally effective, Adjuntive efficacy of anti-proteinases, anti-inflammatory agents, and anti-resorptive, Bone changes, CAL, PPD, plaque index, gingivitis, Use of SDD+ SRP‡ is statistically more effective than SRP alone in reducing PPD and achieving CAL gain Insufficient data for NSAIDs and BPs may have potential adjunctive role in periodontal therapy, Adjunctive SDD enhances therapeutic outcomes compared with SRP alone, resulting in clinical benefit in both smokers and non-smokers with chronic periodontitis, CAL, PPD, Plaque Index, Gingival Index, and gingival crevicular fluid levels, Supports long-term effectiveness of adjunctive SDD therapy, Statistically significant results in patients with aggressive or chronic periodontitis under periodontal treatment. Crossref Lisa J. Non-surgical periodontal therapy: An update on current evidence. Vector, Er:YAG laser monotherapy resulted in similar clinical outcomes, both in the short and long term compared with mechanical debridement. 21 The severity of periodontal disease is dependent not only on the presence and composition of biofilm, but on the host response to the biofilm microorganisms. The review also attempts to briefly introduce future developments in some of these modalities. Analysis of Egyptian hieroglyphics and medical papyri indicate that non‐surgical periodontal treatment was common 3000‐4000 years ago. The primary goal of periodontal therapy is to preserve the natural dentition by achieving and maintaining a healthy functional periodontium. CAL: Clinical attachment level; PPD: Probing pocket depth; SRP: Scaling and root planing; BOP: Bleeding on probing; RCT: Randomized controlled clinical trial; AMX/MET: Amoxicillin plus metronidazole; FMD: Full mouth disinfection.

The current paradigm of periodontal disease stresses greater role of host-mediated inflammatory response in tissue destruction characteristic of periodontal disease. Controlling Systemic Risk Factors.Several risk factors have well established associations with both periodontal and systemic diseases, such as diabetes, smoking, stress, immunodeficiency, medications, obesity, hormones, and nutrition. Nanotech nology in treatment of periodontal disease. CHICAGO – September 11, 2018 – The American Academy of Periodontology (AAP), the leading professional organization dedicated to the dental specialty of periodontics, has published its “best evidence consensus” (BEC) panel proceedings on the topic of laser usage.

Scaling and Root Planing. The use of laser and photodynamic therapy show great promise but their effectiveness has still not been conclusively proven. Periodontal maintenance therapy periodontal maintenance visits should include: 1. Various therapeutic modalities have been developed adjuvant to mechanical periodontal therapy. A. Heitz‐Mayfield and Niklaus P. Lang , Surgical and nonsurgical periodontal therapy. No evidence of effectiveness for the use of PDT as alternative to SRP, Systemic antimicrobials in conjunction with SRP can offer an additional benefit over SRP alone in the treatment of periodontitis, The use of systemically administered adjunctive antibiotics with and without SRP and/or surgery appeared to provide a greater clinical improvement in CAL, Adjunctive therapies generally exhibited improved CAL gain and/or PPD reduction when compared with SRP alone, CAL, PPD, secondary outcomes, and adverse events, Significant CAL gain and PPD reduction in favor of full mouth SRP + AMX/MET; no significant risk difference in the occurrence of adverse events, Significant CAL gain and PPD reduction in favor of SRP + AMX/MET; no significant difference in BOP or suppuration. Very limited number of studies available for comparison, thus limiting general conclusions about the clinical benefit of full-mouth disinfection, Despite the significant differences of modest magnitude, FMD with or without antiseptics do not provide clinically relevant advantages over conventional staged debridement.

Rahul S Bhansali, Non-surgical periodontal therapy: An update on current evidence, World Journal of Stomatology, 3, 4, (38), (2014). Periodontal experts address clinical efficacy of laser usage in patient care. Nonsurgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) is the cornerstone of periodontal therapy and the first recommended approach to the control of periodontal infections. The treatment of periodontitis focuses on terminating the destruction of the periodontium, usually through non-surgical removal of pathogenic bacteria in the periodontal pocket (i.e., scaling and mechanical debridement of the root surface). Even today, scaling and root planing (SRP) remains an essential part of successful periodontal therapy.

Scaling and root planing is a careful cleaning of the root surfaces to remove plaque and calculus [tartar] from deep periodontal pockets and to smooth the tooth root to remove bacterial toxins. After in vivo treatment using the periodontal endoscope and six months' healing, calculus was absent on 35 of subjects' 36 specimens examined in vitro after extraction. Healing after non-surgical periodontal therapy is complete. Sufficient time has elapsed to assess the patient’s level of oral hygiene.
