Brief Summary:
This randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial aimed to evaluate the effect of laser-assisted therapy on soft tissue healing at the pontic site prior to fixed partial denture rehabilitation. Clinical healing outcomes, postoperative pain levels, and gingival crevicular fluid transforming growth factor beta-2 (TGF-β2) levels were assessed to determine the biological and clinical effects of laser therapy compared with placebo.
Detailed Description:
Delayed or compromised soft tissue healing at the pontic site may prolong prosthetic treatment and negatively affect tissue stability and patient comfort. Photobiomodulation has been reported to enhance wound healing and modulate inflammatory and regenerative processes. This randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial evaluated the clinical and biological effects of laser-assisted therapy on pontic site healing prior to fixed partial denture rehabilitation. Clinical healing index scores, wound dimensions, postoperative pain levels, and gingival crevicular fluid TGF-β2 levels were assessed to investigate both clinical and biological aspects of healing.
