Official Title: Lasers in Peri-implantitis Treatment YAG and Er: YAG Laser Approach, Investigation of Clinical and Bone Loss Biomarkers
Brief Summary:
The current study aimed to investigate the effect of the combined Nd-Er: YAG laser on the surgical treatment of peri-implantitis by evaluating clinical markers and biomarkers of bone loss (RANKL/OPG). Twenty (20) patients having at least 1 implant diagnosed with peri-implantitis were randomly assigned to two groups for surgical treatment.
