Control sites were randomly selected to receive an MWF and the contralateral test sites an MWF in conjunction with a DL. The study tooth\/site was treated plus any additional teeth in the quadrant in which the site was located, if needed. Randomization was done using a coin flip. The DL was used to de\u2010epithelialize the inner part of the periodontal flap and photo\u2010biostimulate the surgical area.
