Abstract
This clinical study assessed the effectiveness of diode laser–980 nm as adjuvant in retreatment of failed endodontic cases with chronic periapical lesions on basis of IL-8 expression and postoperative pain when compared to placebo. For 28 patients, the pre-instrumentation periapical samples (S1) were gathered, following retreatment. After chemo-mechanical preparation, post-instrumentation samples (S2) were collected. Patients were allocated to diode laser (DL) or placebo (PL) groups. After which post-irradiation samples (S3) were gathered. Patients recorded their pain on NRS scale at 6, 12, 24 and 7 days. After 1 week, samples (S4) were collected. An ELISA kit was used to measure an amount of IL-8. DL group showed significantly lower IL-8 levels at S4 (p < 0.001) and postoperative pain at 6 h (p = 0.003) compared to PL. Intracanal diode laser irradiation is a beneficial adjunct to endodontics, in retreatment cases regarding reducing postoperative pain and lowering the level of IL-8 expression.
期刊介绍:
The Australian Endodontic Journal provides a forum for communication in the different fields that encompass endodontics for all specialists and dentists with an interest in the morphology, physiology, and pathology of the human tooth, in particular the dental pulp, root and peri-radicular tissues.
The Journal features regular clinical updates, research reports and case reports from authors worldwide, and also publishes meeting abstracts, society news and historical endodontic glimpses.
The Australian Endodontic Journal is a publication for dentists in general and specialist practice devoted solely to endodontics. It aims to promote communication in the different fields that encompass endodontics for those dentists who have a special interest in endodontics.
