Filter by:The objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate chlorhexidine gel associated with photodynamic therapy in the treatment of chronic periodontitis in diabetic participants. The main questions it aims to answer are: • To evaluate the clinical and microbiological response of conventional periodontal treatment associated with photodynamic therapy in diabetic participants. Participants will receive periodontal treatment carried out with the use of 2% chlorhexidine gel associated with 0.005% methylene blue and laser therapy, associated with conventional periodontal treatment, as well as the use of photodynamic therapy associated with conventional periodontal treatment in diabetic participants with periodontitis. So, twenty periodontitis patients will be selected and will separated in two groups compared with placebo. And, Clinical and microbiological parameters were evaluated at baseline and 3 months after periodontal treatment: Plaque Index, Bleeding On Probe, Probing depth, Gingival Recession and Clinical Attachment Level.
The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate photodynamic therapy and photobiomodulation in the periodontitis treatment. To evaluate the clinical and microbiological response of conventional periodontal treatment associated with photodynamic therapy and photobiomodulation with red or infrared laser. Participants will receive periodontal treatment carried out with the use 0.005% methylene blue and laser therapy (photodynamic therapy), associated with conventional periodontal treatment, as well as the use of photobiomodulation with red or infrared laser associated with conventional periodontal treatment in participants with periodontitis. So, twenty periodontitis patients will be selected and separated in two groups compared with placebo. Clinical and microbiological parameters will be evaluated at baseline and 3 months after periodontal treatment: plaque Index, bleeding on probe, probing depth, gingival recession and clinical attachment level.
The loss of periodontal attachment contributes to reduced masticatory performance and has a negative impact on general health.This clinical trial aims to assess the status of masticatory performance among patients with stage I, stage II, stage III and stage IV periodontitis, along with those with healthy periodontium.
The quantification of NLRP6 in blood samples will be analyzed from individuals with chronic periodontitis but without systemic disease. Demographic and periodontal parameters will be assessed and correlated with the NLRP6 quantification using RT-PCR.
The goal of this observational is to analyze the relationship between levels of interleukin-18 (IL-18), interleukin (IL-1β), Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-10 (IL-10), transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain -like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3), apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (ASC), caspase-1, Sirtuin 1 (SIRT-1), Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) small nucleolar RNA host gene 5 (SNHG5), and maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3) in saliva, serum, and peripheral mononuclear blood cell (PMBC)in patients with periodontitis and smokers, to examine the changes in these biomarkers after non surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT), and to evaluate potential confounders that may mediate this relationship. The main questions it aims to answer are: question 1: Is there a relationship between the biomarkers mentioned above and periodontitis and smoking? question 2:How do the above-mentioned biomarkers change after NSPT in smokers and non-smokers?
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) [omega-3] as an adjunctive treatment to scaling and root planing for menopausal women with periodontitis versus scaling and root alone as a non- surgical treatment . . The main question it aims to answer is: • to investigate the effect of systemic administration of Omega-3 fatty acids in addition to SRP on clinical periodontal parameters and GCF levels of osteocalcin and AST in menopausal women. Participants will given * a soft gelatin capsules containing PUFAs to be consumed directly once daily for 12 months along with non-surgical treatment (group2) ** a soft gelatin capsules containing olive oil to be consumed directly once daily for 12 months along with non-surgical treatment (group1) Researchers will compare group 1 to group 2 to see if PUFAs has an effect on clinical periodontal parameters and GCF levels of osteocalcin and AST in menopausal women. .
The objectives of this study are to analyze the oral microbiome modulations occurring during the transition from partial (with some residual teeth) to full edentulous (without remaining teeth) status and implant placement in subjects affected by severe periodontitis; to evaluate if microbiome changes in relation to the used of different implant material/surface; and to assess the variance of the changes to determine the sample size for future longitudinal prospective studies.
Objective: Periodontitis is a multifactorial disease that affects a wide range of populations. However, its pathogenesis remains unclear. miRNAs are now considered potential diagnostic markers for many inflammatory diseases. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the expression of microRNA-223(miRNA-223) and microRNA-214 (miRNA-214) in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of smoker and nonsmoker with periodontitis. Materials and Methods: We conducted a prospective study among 42 participants: 14 healthy controls, 14 nonsmoker periodontitis participants, and 14 smoker with periodontitis. Eligibility criteria for inclusion were consecutive adults, aged 20-60 years, with stage III periodontitis grade B/C and no systemic diseases. All consenting participants had gingival crevicular fluid samples collected after diagnosis to assess miRNA-214 and -223 by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction assay.
Aim: The aim of the current study was to compare and correlate gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) fetuin-A levels and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in non-diabetic periodontitis patients and type 2 diabetic periodontitis patients with healthy subjects and revealing its possible role in diagnosis of periodontal disease. Methodology: Forty-five periodontitis stage III patients categorized into 3 groups according to whether having type II diabetes mellitus or not were compared to systemically and periodontally healthy participants in this investigation. Clinical parameters for all groups were recorded. Assessment of GCF levels of fetuin A and hs-CRP were done to all enrolled participants utilizing an enzyme linked immune-sorbent assay (ELISA) kit. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was performed to reveal sensitivity, specificity, predictive value and diagnostic accuracy of the markers used.
This is a 12-month longitudinal, double-blind, parallel-design randomized controlled clinical trial involving surgical therapeutic intervention (Phase 4). It will include 50 participants aged 21 diagnosed with periodontitis (Stage III/IV, Grade A or B), divided into a Test Group (n=25, Minimally invasive single-flap surgery) and a Control Group (n=25, Minimally invasive double-flap surgery). The objective of this randomized, double-blind clinical study is to compare clinical, radiographic, and patient-centered outcomes between minimally invasive single-flap and double-flap techniques in treating isolated infra-bony defects. Twenty-five patients will be treated using the single-flap approach, and 25 patients will receive the double-flap elevation technique. Clinical parameters (plaque and bleeding scores, probing depth, gingival recession, clinical attachment level, and papillary dimensions), digital measurements (changes in gingival margin and papillary volume), radiographic assessments, and patient-centered outcomes (VAS scale) will be evaluated immediately before surgery, at 6 and 12 months post-procedure, while early healing will be assessed after 1 and 2 weeks following the procedures. Mean values and standard deviations will be calculated for each variable, normal distribution will be tested using the Shapiro-Wilk test, and comparisons will be conducted using Student's t-test and one-way ANOVA. A significance level of 5% will be used for all analyses.
