Filter by:The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a dentifrice containing 0.3% triclosan on periodontal and peri-implant parameters in patients, with or without periodontitis, treated for peri-implantitis and that were enrolled in a maintenance phase for two years.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of a protocol which does not suspend the new oral anticoagulants (dabigatran, rivaroxaban and apixaban) in front of dental extractions in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.
This study will provide mechanistic insight into the underlying causes and molecular level pathogenesis of periodontal diseases. We will identify key mechanisms that confer risk and protection. Ultimately this will lead to new and improved diagnostics and therapeutics. Because periodontal disease is a uniquely accessible biofilm-associated disease it will provide insight into many other diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease and chronic infections associated with indwelling catheters and artificial prostheses. Subjects with periodontal conditions will have therapeutic benefit from the treatments provided.
Epidemiological studies have suggested that maternal periodontitis affects the fetal-placental unit, with an increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcome. Indeed, it has been suggested that the direct or indirect action of parodontopathogenic bacteria induces an inflammatory cascade that leads to spontaneous premature labor. Also, non-treatment of caries and periodontal disease can lead to acute pain and stress. This may promote self-medication and the inappropriate use of analgesic medications, potentially harmful to the health of the fetus. As part of the prevention of complications of pregnancy associated with oral diseases, the National Agency for Accreditation and Evaluation in Health (ANAES) has set up a system that allows any pregnant woman to consult between the 4th and 7th month of pregnancy, an oral health professional to carry out a complete assessment and free care. This study aims at evaluating this device among pregnant women and healthcare professionals 4 years after its implementation. On the other hand, it will make it possible to look for a possible link between the realization of an oral prenatal follow-up and the outcome of the pregnancy.
The aim of this study is to compare quadrant scaling and root planing (Q-SRP) versus full-mouth treatment (FM-SRP) in terms of acute-phase responses following no surgical periodontal treatment in obese patients affected by periodontitis.
The aim of the present clinical study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the novel toothpaste in patients diagnosed with gingivitis and/or periodontitis.
The purpose of this pilot project is to evaluate the efficacy of application of Amnion-Chorion allograft membrane on the root surface of periodontally diseased teeth in conjunction with bone substitute covered by Amnion-Chorion allograft in a combination Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) treatment of periodontal intrabony and furcation defects.
Background: The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between maternal preeclampsia and periodontal parameters and the correlation of these two disorders with maternal gingival crevicular fluid levels (GCF) of interleukin (IL)-35, interleukin-37 and interleukin-6. The investigators also investigated their relation to the severity of preeclampsia. Methods: 82 preeclamptic women were recruited to the study (29 healthy pregnant women, 30 mild preeclamptic patient, 23 severe preeclamptic patient ). The clinical periodontal parameters and GCF samples were collected in the first day of puerperium.
This study had the following aims: i. to determine the relationship between anticipated pain and actual pain experienced following periodontal surgery; and ii. determine the factors that predict the amount of pain and the amount of pain medication use following periodontal surgery. It was hypothesized that experienced pain will be significantly less than anticipated pain. It was also hypothesized that the following factors will affect pain experienced: sex, type of surgery, nervousness, anticipated pain, sedation, age, smoking status, supplement use and pain pill usage. It was hypothesized that the following factors will affect pain pill usage: sex, type of surgery, nervousness, anticipated pain, sedation, age, smoking status, supplement use, and actual pain.
This study is a double-blind, randomised, parallel group efficacy study. A minimum of 240 healthy female and male participants aged over 18 years will participate. The participants will be randomised into two groups. Participants will be randomly assigned to the test groups according the allocation table prepared by the Statistician. Participants will be enrolled on to the study according to the inclusion/exclusion criteria. After enrollment participants will have their teeth cleaned using a professional prophylaxis polish by the study hygienist. The participants will then be provided with a standard cosmetic silica fluoride toothpaste and a toothbrush to use at home, twice a day for up to four weeks. After this time, they will return to the test site and have the baseline dental assessments. Participants will then be randomly allocated to one of the two test products which they will use at home, twice a day for the duration of the study. Dental assessments will be conducted after 13 and 26 weeks of product use at the study site.
