Filter by:The aim of this randomized clinical trial was to clinically evaluate and compare the healing of intrabony defects after treatment with advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF+) toped flap debridement (OFD) in periodontitis patients.
The aim of present study was to evaluate how the 2018 classification reflects the severity, extent and progression of the disease, taking into account the risk factors for periodontal disease, smoking and diabetes, when compared with the 1999 classification.
This is a split-mouth randomized clinical trial in which a new domiciliary oral care protocol with Biorepair Peribioma Toothpaste and Mousse is evaluated in periodontal patients.
OrACell has been tested as a barrier in bone regenerative procedures showing promising results in new bone formation after socket preservation, but no data is available on root coverage procedures. Moreover, it has been suggested that keratinized tissue width (KTW) ≥2mm and gingival thickness (GT) ≥1.2 mm at 6 months of the surgical procedures are two important predictors for long term stability of gingival margin Therefore, it was hypothesized that soft tissue thickness and keratinized tissue width may influence the percentage of root coverage. By means of a prospective case series (12 patients in total), the aim is to study the performance of the OrACell dermal matrix in the treatment of multiple and adjacent gingival recessions, determining the amount of complete root coverage obtained at 6 months of follow-up. At the same time, it is intended to evaluate the effect of initial gingival thickness, by means of digital scanning, upon the success of root coverage procedure with OrACell.
A parallel-armed, sham-controlled, and participant-blind pilot study will be conducted to determine the safety and effectiveness of use of a noninvasive intraoral electrotherapy device to treat periodontal disease. A total of 30 patients were randomly assigned to one of two groups. The trial was comprised of three in-office oral examinations, which were performed at baseline, and at follow-ups～6 weeks (42 days ± 3 days) and～3months (84 days ± 3 days later).
Periodontitis and inflammatory bowel disease have been associated by meta-epidemiologic evidence, although their mechanistic connection needs to be further explored. Oral-gut axis is implicated in the pathogenesis of several chronic inflammatory conditions, but to date no studies have evaluated the impact of periodontal treatment on gut ecology. Thus, the present randomised clinical trial is aimed at investigating the effect of intensive or conventional periodontal therapy on the gut microbiome and parameters of systemic inflammation of patients diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease.
To evaluate the effect of adjunctive systemic administration of melatonin to mechanical non- surgical periodontal therapy in obese patients with periodontitis.
This study is an open-label split-mouth study in which periodontal patients will be treated in order to obtain periodontal health. After non-surgical therapy and air-perio polishing, a periodontal in-situ gelling product (Biorepair Implant Bioactive gel) will be applied in periodontal pockets in two quadrants (Q1-Q3 or Q2-Q4) of the mouth of the participants. At the same time, pockets of the contralateral quadrant will be irrigated with chlorhexidine gel 1%. Patients will continue to use gels at home for the following 14 days and on the same quadrants. Professional ora hygiene session will be performed after 1, 3 and 6 months from the baseline. Patients are divided into two groups with inverted quadrants administration in order to evaluate the improvements of periodontal inflammation indices and to assess the efficacy of Biorepair Implant Bioactive gel compared to chlorhexidine 1% gel treatment.
Objectives: The aim of this study is; detection of peptidyl arginine deiminase4 (PAD4), galectin-3 and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) levels in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) samples of periodontally healthy, gingivitis and periodontitis patients and the possible correlation between these values and clinical parameters of periodontal diseases. Materials and methods: Samples of GCF were obtained from 60systemically healthy non-smoker individuals with periodontitis (P, n=20), gingivitis(G, n=20) and healthy periodontium (S, n=20). Full-mouth clinical periodontal measurements including probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), bleeding on probing (BOP), gingival index (GI) and plaque index (PI) were also recorded. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine PAD4, galectin-3 and TNF-α levels in the biological samples.
Periodontitis is a biofilm-mediated chronic inflammatory disease with a multi-factorial etiology; it belongs to the group of diseases classified as "Non-communicable Diseases" (NCDs). According to the results of the Global Burden of Disease Study of 2017, it is the sixth most prevalent disease worldwide and it constitutes a heavy burden on health costs. Risk factors for such disease include non-modifiable risk factors, i.e. familiarity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic syndrome, as well as modifiable risk factors, i.e. diet, stress and low physical exercise. Given the significant impact of oral health on the quality of life and overall well being of the individual, many studies investigated the importance of risk factors for oral health. In particular, there is some evidence that more severe manifestations of periodontitis are associated with lower physical activity (De Oliveira Ferreira et al., 2019), poor sleep quality (Karaaslan & Dikilitaş, 2019) and more perceived stress (Coelho et al., 2020). With regards to diet, despite the high number of studies demonstrating an anti-inflammatory effect of the Mediterranean Diet, no study has ever investigated the adherence to Mediterranean Dieta to the oral health status. From a methodological standpoint, investigations regarding environmental factors are mainly carried out through questionnaires administration, whose validity and reproducibility had been previously demonstrated. The novelty introduced by the present study would be a complete analysis of the effects of lifestyles (diet, sleep quality, physical exercise, perceived stress) on the periodontal status of the individual.
