The present in vivo study showed that associated therapy was suitable for non-surgical periodontal treatment. The results suggest that the diode laser may be routinely used as an adjunct to scaling and root planing without damage to the cementum tissue.

The results of this study suggest that the InGalAsP diode laser (980 nm) does not damage titanium surfaces, and seems to be safe and useful of treating peri-implantitis, irrespective of power output.
