Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • subject has osseointegrated implants embedded under oral mucosa.
  • subject undergoes second-stage implant surgery.

Exclusion criteria

  • inadequate keratinized gingiva in the implant site.
  • localization of the implant site is not possible due to excessive thickness of the oral mucosa

Treatment and study plan

940 nm Gallium Aluminum Arsenide Diode Laser

Device

Exposure of the cover screw of osseointegrated dental implants embedded under oral mucosa by performing the soft tissue incision with diode laser for placing the healing abutment.

2780 nm Er,Cr:YSGG Laser

Device

Exposure of the cover screw of osseointegrated dental implants embedded under oral mucosa by performing the soft tissue incision with erbium laser for placing the healing abutment.

Primary outcomes

  1. Postoperative pain on 1st day

    Time frame: 1st Day

    Patients score pain intensity with numeric scale ranging between 0(no pain) to 10(most severe pain) on the postoperative 1st day. Pain scores on the postoperative 1st day in each group are compared.

  2. Postoperative pain on 2nd day

    Time frame: 2nd Day

    Patients score pain intensity with numeric scale ranging between 0(no pain) to 10(most severe pain) on the postoperative 2nd day. Pain scores on the postoperative 2nd day in each group are compared.

  3. Postoperative pain on 3rd day

    Time frame: 3rd Day

    Patients score pain intensity with numeric scale ranging between 0(no pain) to 10(most severe pain) on the postoperative 3rd day. Pain scores on the postoperative 3rd day in each group are compared.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of analgesics used daily

    Time frame: 3 days

    Analgesic consumption per day on postoperative 1st, 2nd and 3rd days.

  2. Intraoperative bleeding

    Time frame: During operation

    Bleeding during surgical procedure was scored by the physician as 1=minimal, 2=normal and 3=excessive bleeding
