Periodontitis is a relatively common disease. Various therapies have been recommended for its treatment which includes nonsurgical and surgical therapy. In recent years, lasers have been used for all the two above mentioned purposes. Lasers have been applied for hard & soft tissue debridement, deepithelization, contouring as well as the bacterial load reduction in the pocket. Here, we present a case report of endodontically treated right mandibular first molar (46) with recurrent sinus formation involving Grade II Furcation, treated with soft tissue Laser in combination with Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) resulting in excellent outcome.
