Effects of Er,Cr:YSGG and Diode Lasers on Clinical Parameters and Gingival Crevicular Fluid IL-1β and IL-37 Levels in Generalized Aggressive Periodontitis

Table 2

Comparison of mean values and standard deviations of clinical periodontal indices at the baseline (day 0) and after the treatment (3rd month).

Diode laser			Er,Cr:YSGG laser		SRP (control)		values
	Day 0	3rd month	Day 0	3rd month	Day 0	3rd month	—
PI ()							<0.05
GI ()							<0.05
PPD (mm) ()							<0.05
CAL (mm) ()							<0.05
BOP% ()							<0.05

PI: plaque index, GI: gingival index, PPD: probing pocket depth, CAL: clinical attachment level, BOP: bleeding on probing.Statistically different from day 0 (for each group) ().
