Clinical Trial Summary

The study investigates the effect of supra- and subgingival rinsing of 10% PVP prior to ultrasonic debridement in patients with periodontitis (as compared to rinsing with water) in terms of post treatment bacteraemia.

Study design: Randomized split-mouth (cross-over) study on 20 generally healthy subjects.


Clinical Trial Description

Process:

Test treatment:

- 1 min mouthwash with 10% PVP-iodine

- 1 min subgingival rinsing with 10% PVP-iodine

- 1 min ultrasonic debridement with 10% PVP-iodine as cooling liquid

- blood sampling from the V.mediana cupidi

Control:

- 1 min mouthwash with water

- 1 min subgingival rinsing with water

- 1 min ultrasonic debridement with water as cooling liquid

- blood sampling from the V.mediana cupidi

lysis, culturing and analysis of bacteria in the samples ;
