Abstrakt: ABSTRACTRehabilitation of periodontal support is the main goal of therapies for periodontitis. Hand instrumentation with curettes, piezoelectric ultrasonic scalers and lasers, such as Er,Cr:YSGG, are used for this purpose. This study was designed to evaluate human gingival fibroblast viability attachment to root surface after modification with the mentioned therapeutic alternatives. Lasers showed significantly lower cell viability after 72 hours compared to hand instrumentation and ultrasound, probably due to more irregular root surfaces after treatment.
