Sanitizing activity on the main bacteria involved in periodontal diseases. Decrease of pathogenic bacteria expressed as Unit Forming Colonies (UFC) of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans (HA), Bacteroides forsythus (BF) or Tannerella forsythensis, Porphyromonas gingivalis (PG), Micromonas micros or Peptostreptococcus micros (MM), and Fusobacterium nucleatum (FN) upon treatment with Laser I + HP-GP; Laser I + HP-C; Laser I; Laser II + HP-GP; Laser II + HP-C; and Laser II. Experiments were performed 3 times. Data are given as mean standard deviation (s.d.).
