Evaluation of different treatments of chronic and severe periodontitis in adult patients: meta-analysis of clinical trials
Chronic periodontitis is the most frequent type of periodontitis in the population. For its treatment, traditional mechanical methods are applied, such as scraping and root smoothing. Currently, the newest methods that apply antimicrobials, bactericides or lasers are used in combination with traditi...
