Clinical Effect of MB-PDT Assisted Initial Therapy on Alveolar Angle Absorption of Lower Anterior Teeth
Abstract
Purpose: To assess the impact of MB-PDT assisted essential therapy on angle resorption of lower anterior alveolar bone in patients with periodontitis.
Methods: Forty patients with periodontitis stage III-IV or C, lower anterior teeth alveolar bone angle resorption, and periodontal pocket depth greater than 4 mm were selected. They were divided into control and experimental groups. The experimental group received MB-PDT in addition to essential treatment. Various indices were recorded before and after surgery, and statistical analysis was performed using Graphpad Prism 5 software.
Results: The experimental group showed significantly lower plaque index (PLI) and gingival bleeding index (GBI) scores at 1 and 2 weeks post-operation. Six months after surgery, probing depth (PD) and clinical attachment level (CAL) were significantly lower in the experimental group compared to the control group.
Conclusions: MB-PDT adjuvant therapy offers simple operation, efficient sterilization, promotion of healing, and high safety performance. It may serve as a new non-surgical adjuvant treatment strategy for effective treatment of lower anterior alveolar angular resorption.
