Abstract

A total of 103 patients with exacerbation of chronic generalized periodontitis of moderate and high severity were treated using running alternating magnetic field generated by ATOS device and transcutaneous laser biostimulation of the blood. These treatment modalities accelerated preoperative treatment and allowed performing the operations on the periodontal tissues in the optimal status under conditions of improved defense forces of the organism.

Main findings

In 103 patients, use of a running alternating magnetic field (ATOS device) and transcutaneous laser biostimulation of blood was reported to accelerate preoperative treatment and to allow periodontal operations to be performed in an optimal status under conditions of improved organism defense forces.

Outcomes measured

  • Preoperative treatment duration/acceleration
  • Ability to perform periodontal surgery in optimal status
  • Improved defense forces of the organism (as stated)

Limitations

  • No study design details provided (e.g., control group, randomization)
  • No exposure parameters reported (field strength, frequency, duration)
  • Outcomes are described qualitatively without quantitative results
