Atorvastatin in the Treatment of Mandibular Degree II Furcation Defects

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

ABSTARCT Background: Atorvastatin is an inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-glutaryl coenzyme A reductase. Lately, it has shown to have anti-inflammatory and bone stimulatory effects. The aim of the current study is to explore the effectiveness of 1.2% atorvastatin (ATV) as an adjunct to scaling and root planning (SRP) in the treatment of mandibular degree II furcation defects.

Method: A total of sixty subjects were randomly assigned to two treatment groups. 1. SRP plus placebo gel 2. SRP plus 1.2% ATV gel. Clinical parameters like probing depth (PD), relative vertical clinical attachment level (RVCAL) , relative horizontal clinical attachment level (RHCAL), modified sulcus bleeding index (mSBI) and site specific plaque index were recorded at baseline and then at 3, 6 and 9 months. The radiological assessment of bone defect fill was done at 6 and 9 months, using a computer-aided software.

Clinical Trial Description

Two groups were made. One was delivered with ATV after SRP, the other was delivered with placebo gel after SRP. ;
