Filter by:The use of nonsurgical periodontal treatment, together with plaque control is considered the gold standart for the treatment of periodontal diseases; it produces beneficial effects such as reductions in clinical inflammation, decreases in pocket depth and increases in clinical attachment levels .However to modulate the healing response additional protocols has been suggested to increase the efficacy of existing treatment protocols. Laser biostimulation therapy is highly preferred method used due to its healing acceleration effect on several wounds in medical field. Thus,the investigators aimed to evaluate the laser biostimulation therapy adjunct to non-surgical periodontal treatment in systemically healthy and uncontrolled type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with generalized periodontitis. The effects of laser irradiation with Nd-YAG laser at the 1064-nm wavelength as an adjunct to non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT) was analysed by means of IL-1β and IL-10 concentrations in gingival crevicular fluid and periodontal clinical measurements of systemically healthy and uncontroled DM2 patients with generalized periodontitis.
It is essential that athletes have perfect general health. Oral health plays an important role in this healthy framework necessary so that the results that must be achieved by athletes are not influenced. Inflammatory and / or infectious processes such as periodontal disease, caries, or even joint problems such as temporomandibular joint dysfunction can affect performance or impair participation in training and competitions.
The aim of this study is to compare periodontal treatment with or without the adjunct of an enamel matrix derivative in terms of periodontal healing in diabetic patients.
Chlorhexidine is the gold standard of dental plaque prevention. Recent research have demonstrated that 0.2% Chlorhexidine solutions are more effective than 0.12% and 0.06% Chlorhexidine solutions. Several 0.2% solutions are available on the market. This study aimed to compare effectiveness of two commercially available 0.2% chlorhexidine mouthwashes. Patients, that after initial periodontal therapy, had a need for two periodontal surgeries, will be invited to join. After one surgical session, the patient will receive one 0.2% chlorhexidine solution, and after the next surgical session the patient will receive the other 0.2% chlorhexidine solution. Plaque and gingivitis will be recorded, as well as side effects.
It is a clinical trial conducted on smokers with chronic periodontitis in which the participants are divided into two groups and one group is provided with antibiotics while the other with probiotics as an adjunct to non-surgical therapy. The participants were assessed for change in probing pocket depths, attachment loss, bleeding on probing, plaque index and gingival index after 1-month and 3-month period.
Background. Vitamin D has both direct effects on bone metabolism and an antimicrobial effect on periodontopathogens. It also inhibits inflammatory mediators that contribute to periodontal destruction. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between serum 1.25-hydroxyvitamin D (1.25(OH)2D3) and 25(OH)D levels and periodontal inflammation. Methods. This study included 28 subjects with chronic gingivitis, 29 subjects with chronic periodontitis and 25 periodontally healthy subjects. Blood samples were collected from the participants to determine serum levels of 25(OH)D, 1.25(OH)2D3, tumour necrosis factor α (TNF-α), C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin 6 (IL-6). Clinical parameters were recorded. Results were statistically analysed with a Shapiro-Wilk's test, Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, Wilcoxon test and post-hoc multiple comparison test.
The present clinico-biochemical study was carried out to estimate the levels of Fetuin A and MMP7 in serum of systemically healthy subjects in periodontal health and disease and to evaluate the impact of periodontal interventional therapy (scaling and root planing) on the same.
To evaluate the role of antioxidants - superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione and total anti oxidant levels in the serum of chronic periodontitis patients and chronic periodontitis with DM Type II patients, then to compare it with healthy controls, to assess their possible role as biomarkers for chronic periodontitis and the possible systemic effects of periodontitis.
40 patients diagnosed with localised periodontitis will be included at each center, 20 patients will be treated with the control treatment, 20 patients will be treated by test treatment.
A comparison of laser (REPaiR) compared with minimally invasive surgical therapy for moderate to severe periodontal disease.
