Brief Summary: The aim of this study will be to compare the approach of repeated applications of APDT versus surgical therapy for the treatment of residual pockets in generalized agressive periodontitis.
Detailed Description: Scaling and root planing may be insufficient to resolve the periodontal infection resulting in residual periodontal pockets. A method of treatment to these sites would be the surgical therapy, because it allows access to root surfaces, making possible a better decontamination. However, the surgical approach may bring some negative points, as more discomfort and postoperative morbidity, increased transoperatory risk and increased risk of contamination. Thus, finding other alternatives to residual pockets treatment, antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) was recently proposed. Therefore, the aim of this study will be to compare the approach of repeated applications of APDT versus surgical therapy for the treatment of residual pockets in generalized agressive periodontitis.
