Filter by: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.
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 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.
We evaluated vitamin D and IL8 levels in the serum of patients with periodontitis as well as the healthy controls to correlate their levels with the degree of periodontitis.
Immediate post-suturing administration of either one of two dental anesthetic solutions or a placebo prior to dismissal.
This study aimed to determine CCL19/MIP3beta(β) and CCL20/MIP3alpha(α) in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of the patients with different periodontitis phenotypes. A total of 72 individuals, 24 with Stage III Grade B periodontitis (Group 1), 24 with Stage III Grade C periodontitis (Group 2), and 24 periodontally healthy (control group) (Group 3), were included in the study. GCF and clinical periodontal parameters were obtained at baseline. MIP3β and MIP3α levels in GCF were determined by ELISA.
the research highlight the effectiveness of probiotics as adjuncts to SRP in the treatment of periodontitis stage III grade C molar-incisor pattern
The recently discovered association of the hormones 'asprosin, adropin and irisin' with obesity and metabolic status, as well as the fact that periodontal diseases are affected by obesity and nutrition bilaterally, have led us to investigate the relationship between selected target markers and periodontal disease. The primary aim and main objective of this study is to increase the knowledge and to direct future researches as a result of the lack of adequate research in the past and the very limited investigations with these hormones in dentistry and periodontology. Our study was conducted on 122 patients who applied to Adıyaman University Faculty of Dentistry and were referred to the Department of Periodontology for routine periodontal controls. Participants' gender, age, height, weight, BMI, education level, tooth brushing and flossing habits as well as clinical parameters PI, GI, SCD, CAS and SDI were noted. Participants were divided into 4 groups as healthy, gingivitis, initial periodontitis and advanced periodontitis and grouped according to the current periodontal classification of 2017. DOS was collected from the groups for examination and 'asprosin, adropin and irisin' values in the samples were evaluated by ELISA test.
