Aseel Ghithal Hayder | Samar Khalid Al-Adel | Basma Raad Omar

Abstract: Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease caused by a group of microorganisms attached to tooth surfaces as a biofilm. Therapeutic modalities aim to elimination or suppression of microorganisms, open flap debridement such as Modified Widman Flap is one of these modalities. Diode laser due to antibacterial effect had become popular in periodontology, however limited study was done on it?s application in periodontal flap surgery.
