Periodontitis is a silent disease and is one of the most common oral disease in humanbeings;that damages the soft tissue and supportingstructuresof theteeth. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of Ozonated WaterandDiodeLaserasadjuncttoscalingandrootplanninginmildtomoderateperiodontitis.The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of Ozonated WaterandDiodeLaserasadjuncttoscalingandrootplanninginmildtomoderateperiodontitis.Fiftypatientsintheagegroupof25-50yearsofboththesexessufferingfromGeneralizedChronicMildtoModerateperiodontitiswereselectedfromtheoutpatientdepartment of Periodontology and Oral Implantology.InthepresentstudyprobingpocketDepth,GingivalIndex,sulcusbleedingindex, clinicalattachmentLevelwereselectedastheclinicalparameters.Ahighlysignificantdecrease in the Probing Pocket Depth, Gingival score, sulcus bleeding index and gainin Clinical Attachment Levelat 4 weeks, 3 months and 6 months were observed in allthree groups, indicating that both ozonated water and diode laser were almost equallyeffective as adjuncts to scaling and root planing.Thus, the results of the present studyclinically favor the use of both ozonated waterirrigation and diode laser as an adjunct to scaling and root planing in the treatment ofchronicmild tomoderate periodontitis.
