Sponsor's own description

The objective of this clinical investigation is to examine the impact of Nd:YAG laser therapy on oxidative stress and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) levels in teeth afflicted with apical periodontitis. Samples were collected from patients who had undergone treatment with the Nd:YAG laser and compared with samples collected from patients who had not received this treatment. The study commenced with a sample of 60 patients. However, the study was completed with 58 patients. The study concluded with the following finding: the use of Nd:YAG lasers was not found to be superior.
