Int J Periodontics Restorative Dent. 2023 Oct 24;(7):s314-s325. doi: 10.11607/prd.6295.ABSTRACTMinimally invasive nonsurgical treatment (MINST) aims to remove an etiology with minimal damage to the healthy periodontium and provide the ideal healing environment. This case series introduces the novel protocol of laser-assisted MINST (LAMINST), combining minimally invasive surgery with a dental laser. A total of 25 patients (32 teeth) with advanced periodontal disease were enrolled and received periodontal treatment by following the LAMINST protocol.
