Filter by:: The aim of this study is; detection of Adseverin,1-alpha Defensin,sRANKL(soluble RANKL) levels in saliva 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 saliva were obtained from 60 systemically 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 Adseverin,1-alpha Defensin,sRANKL(soluble RANKL) levels in the biological samples.
Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) is a vegetable oil extracted from coconut fleshcontains unsaturated fatty acids in the form of oleic acid and linoleic acid and flavonoids which function as anti-inflammatory. Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease of the periodontal tissues with a high prevalence worldwide. The main etiology of plaque periodontitis is biofilm containing colonies of pathogenic microorganisms. The aim of the study is to evaluate and compare the effect of scaling and root debridement alone versus the use of topically applied coconut oil as adjunctive to scaling and root debridement in treatment of Stage II and III Grade B periodontitis.
In 10 systemically healthy non-smokers, free of periodontitis, one newly restored implant (baseline-T0) and one corresponding tooth were followed over 12 months (T1). All implants were screw-retained, and platform-switched. Oral hygiene was closely monitored during the study. Probing pocket depth (PPD), attachment levels (CAL), bleeding and plaque indices and crevicular fluid were collected from an implant-site (PICF) and a tooth-site (GCF). Total proteomic profiles in PICF and GCF were investigated using label-free quantitative proteomics.
Comparison of salivary markers in patients with Initial chronic periodontitis after non-surgical periodontal treatment with CoQ10 supplementation with vitamin E
Comparative evaluation of CoQ10 and Omega-3 as adjuncts to periodontal therapy and total antioxidant capacity of saliva (randomized Double-Blind Clinicalials)
The aim of the present study is to compare the efficacy of LANAP to conventional scaling and root planing in the management of stage II periodontitis.
Objectives: To test the impact of clinical inflammation and molecular expression profile (senescence-associated secretory phenotype; SASP) in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) on the outcomes of minimally-invasive periodontal regeneration in intra-bony defects. Methods: Sites associated with intrabony defects ≥ 3 mm requiring periodontal regeneration through minimally-invasive surgical technique were included. Pre-operatively, GCF was sampled for inflammatory biomarker analysis related to SASP [interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and IL-12; matrix-metalloproteinases (MMP)-8 and -9]. Correlation analyses and logistic regression models were performed to assess the impact of predictors on clinical and radiographic outcomes.
The goal of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to compare the immediate effectiveness of 3D intra-oral scanners and standard oral hygiene instructions in improving the oral hygiene of 52 subjects. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Does a 3D intra-oral scanner facilitate the improvement of oral hygiene in subjects? - Does a 3D-rendered image of plaque-stained teeth confer better visualization to subjects? Prospective Open Cohort study: Patients referred to NUCOHS Periodontology Department will be invited to participate in the study. Included participants will be randomized into the 3D scanner (test) and standard oral hygiene (control) group. Subsequently, both groups will receive personalized oral hygiene instructions before brushing their teeth. The participants will receive plaque disclosing again to compare the differences between baseline and post-intervention. Routine periodontal parameters will be recorded at baseline and researchers will compare the percentage improvement in full mouth plaque scores to see if the test group performed better than the control group. A questionnaire will be given to subjects in the test and control group for qualitative analysis. The study will require 1 visit.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of pregnancy on salivary pH, flow rate, caries experience and periodontal status. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does pregnancy affect caries experience and periodontal status? - Does pregnancy affect salivary pH and flow rate? - Is there a difference between pregnant and non-pregnant woman with respect to caries experience, periodontal status, salivary pH and flow rate? - Is there a difference among first, second and third trimester with respect to caries experience, periodontal status, salivary pH and flow rate?
Based on these considerations, this randomized controlled trial aimed to determine the effectiveness of a personalized visual oral health education program in addition to conventional education on oral hygiene by comparing changes in clinical periodontal parameters. Participants will get conventional oral hygiene education (COHE) with/without visual motivation using self oral photographs of patients. Researchers will compare Intervention group and control groups on oral hygiene by comparing changes in clinical periodontal parameters.
