Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, Er:YAG lazer ve Gracey küretleri ile diş yüzeyi temizliği ve kök yüzeyi düzleştirme (KYD) prosedürünü karşılaştırmak ve biyomodifiye edici olarak enjekte edilebilir-trombositten zengin fibrin (e-TZF) kullanımının etkinliğini araştırmaktır.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çekilen insan dişleri 4 gruba ayrıldı: Gracey Grubu (n=9): Gracey küretleri ile KYD; Gracey + e-TZF Grubu (n=9): Gracey küretleri ile KYD ve ardından kök yüzeyine e-TZF uygulanması; Er:YAG Grubu (n=9): Er:YAG lazeri ile KYD; Er:YAG + e-TZF Grubu (n=9): Er:YAG lazeri ile KYD ve ardından kök yüzeyine e-TZF uygulanması. Dentin tübüllerinin genişliği ve smear tabakasının varlığı/yokluğu taramalı elektron mikroskobu kullanılarak incelendi.
Bulgular: Er:YAG grubunda Gracey grubuna kıyasla önemli ölçüde daha az smear tabakası vardı (p=0,001). Dentin tübüllerinin genişliğinin Er:YAG ve Er:YAG+e-TZF gruplarında Gracey grubuna kıyasla önemli ölçüde daha yüksek olduğu bulundu (sırasıyla;p=0,015; p<0,001). Er:YAG+e-TZF grubundaki dentin tübüllerinin genişliği Gracey+e-TZF grubuna kıyasla belirgin şekilde daha yüksekti (p=0,026).
Sonuçlar: Er:YAG lazerin, diş yüzeyi temizliğinde altın standart olan Gracey küretlerinden daha etkili olduğu bulundu. Özellikle Er:YAG lazerle birleştirildiğinde, e-TZF daha geniş dentin tübülleriyle sonuçlandı.

Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare scaling and root planning (SRP) with Er:YAG laser and Gracey curettes and the effectiveness of using injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) as a biomodifier was also investigated.
Materials and Methods: There were 4 groups of extracted human teeth: Gracey Group (n=9): SRP with Gracey curettes; Gracey + i-PRF Group (n=9): SRP with Gracey curettes followed by application of i-PRF to the root surface; Er:YAG Group (n=9): SRP with Er:YAG laser; Er:YAG + i-PRF Group (n=9): SRP with Er:YAG laser followed by application of i-PRF to the root surface. The width of dentin tubules and the presence/absence of smear layer were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
Results: There was significantly less smear layer in the Er:YAG group compared to the Gracey group (p=0.001). The width of dentin tubules was found to be significantly higher in the Er:YAG and Er:YAG+i-PRF groups compared to the Gracey group (respectively;p=0.015;p<0.001). The width of dentin tubules in the Er:YAG+i-PRF group was profoundly higher than in the Gracey+i-PRF group (p=0.026).
Conclusions: Er:YAG laser was found to be more effective than Gracey curettes, which are the gold standard in root surface cleaning. Especially when combined with Er:YAG laser, i-PRF resulted in wider dentin tubules.
