Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Main Purpose: To evaluate the effect of photodynamic therapy on soft tissue healing after tooth extraction at periodontal infection site, and to compare the effect on pain degree and bone tissue remodeling after tooth extraction.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT) on soft tissue healing and bone remodeling in tooth extraction sockets after tooth extraction. The enrolled patients will be randomized into two groups. The control group used conventional tooth extraction to clean the wound, and the experimental group used photodynamic therapy to help clean the wound. Seven days and 14 days after extraction, the area of extraction socket was measured, the healing rate of extraction socket was calculated, and Landry, Turnbull and Howley soft tissue healing index was measured. The degree of pain was recorded at 6h, 1 day, 2 days and 3 days after tooth extraction. Bone remodeling indexes were measured at 1 month after tooth extraction.

Study Groups

Experimental group

Debridement of tooth extraction sockets was assisted by photodynamic equipment

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Dental diode laser device Paiwei™(Zhengzhou Gata biotechnology Co.,Ltd.,China) which was 650-670nm with a power of 160mw-220mw.

Intervention Type DRUG

The tooth extraction sockets were filled with photosensitizer methylene blue. The guide head of the laser periodontal therapy instrument (Dental diode laser device Paiwei™(Zhengzhou Gata biotechnology Co.,Ltd.,China) which was 650-670nm with a power of 160mw-220mw.) was placed in the tooth extraction sockets to probe and move around the tooth extraction sockets for 1 minute. At the end of irradiation, a cotton ball dipped in saline was used to wipe the guide head and rinse the photosensitizer out of the socket

control group

Routine tooth extraction and debridement were performed

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
