1: Laser group, 2: Halita group, statistically significant data was shown in the bold emphasis.

* P values in the columns represents significance between laser and Halita groups (P < 0.05)

** P value in the rows represents significance between measurements on time periods in laser and Halita groups separately (P < 0.05).
