Twenty patients with moderate to advanced peri\u2010implantitis lesions were randomly treated with either (1) an ERL using a cone\u2010shaped glass fiber tip at an energy setting of 100\u2003mJ\/pulse and 10 pps (ERL), or (2) mechanical debridement using plastic curettes and antiseptic therapy with chlorhexidine digluconate (0.2%) (C). The following clinical parameters were measured at baseline, 3 and 6 months after treatment by one blinded and calibrated examiner: Plaque index (PI), bleeding on probing (BOP), probing depth (PD), gingival recession (GR) and clinical attachment level (CAL). At the baseline examination, there were no statistically significant differences in any of the investigated parameters. Mean value of BOP decreased in the ERL group from 83% at baseline to 31% after 6 months (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.001) and in the C group from 80% at baseline to 58% after 6 months (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.001). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.001, respectively). The sites treated with ERL demonstrated a mean CAL change from 5.8\u00b11\u2003mm at baseline to 5.1\u00b11.1\u2003mm (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.01) after 6 months. The C sites demonstrated a mean CAL change from 6.2\u00b11.5\u2003mm at baseline to 5.6\u00b11.6\u2003mm (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.001) after 6 months. After 6 months, the difference between the two groups was statistically not significant (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&gt;0.05). Within the limits of the present study, it was concluded that (i) at 6 months following treatment both therapies led to significant improvements of the investigated clinical parameters, and (ii) ERL resulted in a statistically significant higher reduction of BOP than C.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0501.2004.01051.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,9,13]],"date-time":"2010-09-13T16:06:24Z","timestamp":1284393984000},"page":"44-52","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":176,"title":["Clinical
