The April 2011 American Academy of Periodontology's \u201cStatement on the Efficacy of Lasers in the Non-Surgical Treatment of Inflammatory Periodontal Disease\u201d asserted that the use of a laser as monotherapy or in addition to nonsurgical periodontal instrumentation conveyed no advantage.\n                    <jats:bold>\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Methods:<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:bold>\n                    After initial screening, 23\/77 potentially relevant articles and abstracts identified through electronic and manual searches of the MEDLINE\n                    <jats:sup>\u00ae<\/jats:sup>\n                    \/PubMed database and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (1990\u20132012) were included in this review.\n                    <jats:bold>\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Results:<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:bold>\n                    A meta-analysis could be performed.
