Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the effects of non-surgical periodontal treatment with/without diode laser on metabolic control in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). Subject and method: Sixty patients with DM2 and chronic periodotitis were randomly assigned. The treatment group (n = 30) received full-mouth scaling and root planning and diode laser (810nm) therapy (SRP + DL), whereas the control group (n = 30) received conventional periodontic treatment (SRP). Gingival index (GI), plaque index (PI), probing pocket depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), HbA1c were recorded at baseline and compared to data collected three month later. Result: The reductions in clinical parameters (PI, GI, PD, CAL) were statistically significant after 3 months (p<0.001). Glycated hemoglobin level decreased significantly in group SRP + DL after 3 month (p=0.04) and decreased significantly comparison to group SRP alone (p=0.03). Conclusion: Laser as adjunct to SRP is significantly better procedure for improving metabolic control in comparison to group SRP alone.
