Filter by:The aim of this study is to prove that Novosyn Quick and Monosyn Quick are equivalent in early wound healing in adult patients undergoing resective periodontal surgery. In order to show equivalence between Novosyn Quick and Monosyn Quick EHS, which is composed of 3 parameters: clinical signs of reepithelization, clinical signs of haemostasis and clinical signs of inflammation, will be calculated for each suture 10 ± 5 days postoperatively and cannot differ more than 2 points. Furthermore, complications, the handling of the suture material, pain, satisfaction of the patient and bacterial contamination of the thread (optional) will also be assessed as secondary objectives.
The overall goal of this study is to develop OCT Vibrography (aka OCT elastography) as a novel tool for measuring biomechanical properties of human tissues in vivo.
Aim of the study: This study aims to evaluate the antioxidant and beneficial effects of matcha tea daily intake on periodontal health. Objectives: - To evaluate the salivary level of antioxidants (catalase, total antioxidant capacity) after matcha tea intake compared to green tea over a period of one month. - To evaluate the clinical periodontal parameters including bleeding on probing (BOP), probing pocket depth (PPD) and plaque index (PI) after matcha tea intake compared to green tea over a period of one month. - To evaluate the salivary levels of IL-1B after matcha tea intake compared to green tea over a period of one month.
This study is proposing the use of i-PRF clot as a scaffold for the XCM in order to obtain a novel biomaterial, incorporating active growth factors and collagen matrix in a single framework, based on the potential effect of i-PRF to enhance fibroblast activity and angiogenesis stimulation for treatment of multiple gingival recession.
This study will evaluate the use of Livionex Dental Gel (LDG) as a home care product in reducing probing pocket depth (PD) beyond the effect achieved by the current standard of care with SRP in periodontitis patients.
Objectives: To reduce the microbial level in the aerosol created during dental procedures is essential in avoiding infections. The aim of this study was to examine the change of Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) and the total bacterial load in human saliva in vivo after a single rinse with different mouthwashes. Material and methods: One mL unstimulated saliva was collected from volunteers with poor oral hygiene at baseline and 5 min after a one-min rinsing with Solumium Oral® (hyper-pure 0.0015% chlorine dioxide; ClO2), Listerine Total Care®, Corsodyl® (0.2% chlorhexidine-digluconate; CHX), or BioGate Si*CLEAN for bacterial investigation. In a second study volunteers rinsed with 0.003% ClO2 or CHX for one-min and saliva was collected at baseline, after 5 and 90 min. After plating the total plate and S. mutans colony numbers were determined.
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of a gel containing nanovitamin C, nanovitamin E and propolis extract compared to a placebo in the treatment of desquamative gingivitis (GD) in patients with mucocutaneous diseases with gingival involvement. The possible improvement in the quality of life of these patients after treatment will also be evaluated. Study design: Double-blind, randomized controlled study. Patients: GD patients are being selected from the Postgraduate 'Specialist in Oral Medicine' of the Faculty of Dentistry, Complutense University of Madrid. Allocation: Patients are being randomly assigned to the study group (dental prophylaxis + oral hygiene instructions + use of propolis gel for 4 weeks) or to the placebo group (dental prophylaxis + oral hygiene instructions + use of placebo gel for 4 weeks ). Both the study gel and the placebo are being used for brushing their teeth and for application in areas with GD. Variables: The severity of the GD will be collected according to the scale of Arduino et al. 2017 and the periodontal variables (plaque index, probing bleeding index and probing depth). Pain during treatment will be recorded using a 10 cm visual analog scale (VAS). The quality of life in relation to oral health will be recorded using the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) questionnaire. These variables will be collected on day 0, 2 and 4 weeks after using the study gel or placebo.
Comparative study on the efficacy of two mouthwashes Containing Fatty Acids Compounds (F.A.G.) or Stannous Fluoride in the reduction of plaque score in individuals with spontaneous gengivitis
When harvesting autogenous free grafts to treat periodontal conditions (e.g., lack of attached keratinized tissue, ridge defects, and other mucogingival deformities), the hard palate is the preferred donor site. The primary disadvantage of this technique is the creation of a second surgical site. This sacrificial traumatic lesion on the palate is associated with significant post-operative morbidities, including patient discomfort, infection, inflammation, hemorrhage, and necrosis. A pilot, blinded Randomized Control Trial will be conducted with subjects who are treatment planned to receive free gingival graft palatal harvest surgery. The palatal wound donor site for treatment group 1 will not receive an allograft membrane; while the donor site for treatment group 2 will receive an amnion-chorion allograft membrane (BioXclude) secured with a suture. The severity of pain at the palatal wound site will be assessed using an at home survey (Visual Analog Scale, Pain Catastrophizing Scale, & Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Scale). The healing of the palatal donor site will be evaluated quantitatively and qualitatively (PVS impression, optical scan, endoscopy, and ultrasnonography).
This randomized clinical trial study aims to investigate the impact of home-based differential learning on tooth brushing, in particular on the reduction of plaque and maintenance of gingival health in children aged 3 to 8 years, compared to the habitual tooth brushing and instruction/demonstration tooth brushing learning method.
