Introduction: Periodontal Pockets are pathological spaces located between the teeth and the adjacent soft tissue. Some Periodontal pockets asymptomatic, while others My have significant symptoms. Patients with active periodontal pockets may feel pain, bleeding and swollen gingiva (adjacent to pocket). These symptoms appear because of a microbial invasion to this space and the accumulation of food debris. Objective: This study aims to explore the effect of diode lasers in relieving the symptoms of active periodontal pockets. Materials and methods: The method is based on irradiating the active periodontal pocket by using 980 nanometer diode laser and recording the condition of …
