Abstract

ABSTRACT

An aberrant frenum can negatively impact gingival health when it is attached too close to the gingival margin, either by interfering with plaque control or due to muscle pull. Such a condition often necessitates a frenectomy, which can be performed using a scalpel, electrocautery, or soft tissue lasers. This study aimed to compare to and evaluate the benefits of conventional and laser assisted frenectomy in patients undergoing orthodontic therapy. Materials and Methods: Twenty patients aged 16 to 30 years were randomly divided into two groups? Group A (n = 10): Subjects treated with the conventional scalpel technique.? Group B (n = 10): Subjects treated with the diode laser technique.The study evaluated various parameters, including pain, inflammation, swelling, speech difficulty, and wound healing at intervals of baseline, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months. Results: The study found that patients treated with the diode laser experienced significantly less postoperative pain (P < 0.0001) and required fewer analgesics (P < 0.001) compared to those treated with the scalpel. Wound healing after 7 days and 1 month showed a statistically significant difference, with better outcomes observed in Group B (diode laser). However, by the end of 3 months, there was no significant difference in wound healing between the two groups.
