Clinical Evaluation of Tissue Healing around Gingival Former Following DentalImplant Uncovery with two Different Diode Laser Wavelength
This study evaluated tissue healing around gingival formers of dental implants after uncovery with different diode laser wavelengths. Conducted on 72 implants at Jundishapur University, Ahvaz, Iran, the study compared 940nm and 810nm diode lasers. Key indicators such as anesthesia needs, surgery duration, bleeding, pain, inflammation, edema, and gingival color were measured. Results showed no significant difference in surgery duration between the two groups. However, the 940nm laser required less anesthesia and resulted in lower pain intensity immediately and seven days post-surgery. Both groups experienced no bleeding. Overall, the 940nm diode laser performed better in the second stage of implant uncovering.
