January 25, 2019 updated by: Erkan Feslihan, Yuzuncu Yıl University

Clinical Comparison of The Use of Er,Cr:YSGG and Diode Lasers In Second Stage Implant Surgery

The study evaluates postoperative pain, intraoperative bleeding and wound healing after second stage implant surgery. Submerged implants were exposed with diode laser in Group 1 (n=20) and by using Er,Cr:YSGG laser in Group 2 (n=20).

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Diode laser
Soft tissue incision with 940 nm Gallium Aluminum Arsenide diode laser, at implant recovery settings (2.5 W output power, average power: 1.25 W, pulse length : 1.00 ms, pulse interval: 1.00 ms) in second-stage implant surgery.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Postoperative pain on 1st day
Time Frame: 1st Day
Patients score pain intensity with numeric scale ranging between 0(no pain) to 10(most severe pain) on the postoperative 1st day. Pain scores on the postoperative 1st day in each group are compared.
1st Day
Postoperative pain on 2nd day
Time Frame: 2nd Day
Patients score pain intensity with numeric scale ranging between 0(no pain) to 10(most severe pain) on the postoperative 2nd day. Pain scores on the postoperative 2nd day in each group are compared.
2nd Day
Postoperative pain on 3rd day
Time Frame: 3rd Day
Patients score pain intensity with numeric scale ranging between 0(no pain) to 10(most severe pain) on the postoperative 3rd day. Pain scores on the postoperative 3rd day in each group are compared.
3rd Day

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of analgesics used daily
Time Frame: 3 days
Analgesic consumption per day on postoperative 1st, 2nd and 3rd days.
3 days
Intraoperative bleeding
Time Frame: During operation
Bleeding during surgical procedure was scored by the physician as 1=minimal, 2=normal and 3=excessive bleeding
During operation
