Filter by:application of 1% curcumin gel in clinical study design will be used . The study will be conducted in Al-Najaf specialised dentistry center. The group of patients will be consist of 25 patients, belonging to both sex, age between 30-45 years. All patients will be diagnosed as chronic periodontitis with periodontal pockets of depth 5-7mm bilaterally to be randomly selected.
Periodontitis is treated by regularly clearance of the disease-causing biofilm through domestic care and dental measures (Petersilka et al., 2002, Herrera et al., 2008). Healthy gums have intact papillae occluding the interdental area. Successful brushing cleans these areas; the prophylaxis of gingivitis for such patients does therefore not require special aids. In contrast, initial attachment loss as a result of inflammation or restorative therapy leads to additional cleaning needs, since the normal brush is not able to clean interdental areas as successful as vestibular and oral surfaces (Dörfer and Staehle, 2010). It can be said that interdental brushes are the most effective tools for cleaning interdental spaces (Salzer et al., 2015). Compared with a toothbrush, they are the only tool showing better results of plaque removal and reduction of gingivitis (Slot et al., 2008). Therefore their use should not be restricted to older people with already reduced interdental papillae. A big advantage is that interdental brushes are generally easy to use. If brush sizes are chosen correctly, insertion and multiple forward and backward movement is sufficient to obtain com- plete cleaning of the interproximal surfaces. Additional cleaning by other means such as dental floss is not always necessary because interdental brushes clean approximal and subgingival surfaces sufficiently, providing the size was chosen correctly (Dörfer and Staehle, 2010). Due to the above mentioned coherences and associations, this study includes the hypothesis that patients with periodontitis would benefit from the instruction and motivation of interdental brushes within the active periodontitis therapy in comparison to a periodontitis therapy without the instructed domestic interdental hygiene by a stronger reduction of clinical inflammatory characteristics (Salzer et al., 2015). The corresponding Zero-Hypothesis says that no difference would be found between both groups.
A total of 90 subjects, 30 patients with chronic periodontitis, 30 with gingivitis and 30 periodontally healthy subjects were included. Patients with periodontal disease received non-surgical periodontal treatment. Gingival crevicular fluid periostin levels were assessed at baseline, at the 6th week and the 3rd month after treatment.
Preeclamptic women with and without chronic periodontitis were recruited for the study. Subgingival plaque samples and placental tissue samples(postpartum) were obtained from the participants for the microbial analysis(bacteria, viruses) and MIR155 levels and comparison was done among groups. this study was designed in order to evaluate the role of periodontal microorganisms in preeclampsia and to find compare the MIR155 levels among participants, so as to check its importance as a biomarker for inflammatory disease like preeclampsia.
The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness in periodontal regeneration of cross-linked hyaluronic acid at 1.8% (Hyadent BG®) with enamel matrix derivative (Emdogain®) in periodontal bone defects evaluating their clinical and radiographic variables.
The first step in the management of periodontal disease involves the non-surgical removal of the soft and hard bacterial deposits at all supra- and sub-gingival sites, especially into deep pockets, which can be carried on with different instruments. Unfortunately it seems that, after the initial therapy, many patients still present with active pockets (residual pockets) requiring further treatment and posing a risk of disease progression. This might be due to limitations of the instruments applied and patient-related factors. Air-polishing with low-abrasiveness powders seems to be very effective in the removal of supra- and sub-gingival biofilm and could provide additional benefits during the treatment of pockets. The hypothesis of the present randomized controlled trial was that the adjunctive use of a sub-gingival nozzle for air-polishing with erythritol powder in pockets with probing depth of 5-9mm and with bleeding (experimental sites) can bring clinical and microbiological advantages during the active therapy of periodontal disease, and reduce the number of residual pockets. To test this hypothesis, the patients, upon initial evaluation, were divided in 2 study groups: 1. The control group, undergoing a standard procedure involving air-polishing supra-gingivally and at healthy sub-gingival sites followed by debridement with an ultrasonic scaler at deep pathological pockets 2. The study group, undergoing the same procedure but with the additional use of a sub-gingival nozzle at deep pathological pockets. The healing of the experimental sites and the prevalence of residual pockets will be evaluated at 3 months after the initial therapy and compared between the two groups.
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of periodontitis on oral health-related quality of life (OHQoL) and the factors may associated with OHQoL. Methods: 50 untreated periodontitis patients and 50 individuals without periodontitis were enrolled in the study. All subjects underwent detailed periodontal examination and probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL) measurements were performed. OHRQoL was assessed through the Oral Health Quality of Life-United Kingdom (OHRQoL-UK) scale. Symptoms of periodontitis was determined by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Socio-demographic characteristics, medical history, smoking status, hygiene habits of the all individuals were recorded.
The objective of this study is to 1) identification of the impact of IL-34 on the pathogenesis of periodontal disease and determine whether any relationship among the existing levels of Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) Interleukin 34( IL-34 )and GCF Receptor activator of nuclear factor -kB ligand (RANKL), osteoprotegerin (OPG) and RANKL/OPG ratio, as a mediator of bone resorption 2) analysis of the impact of non-surgical periodontal treatment on GCF IL-34 levels in patients with chronic periodontitis (CP) and aggressive periodontitis (AgP) and 3) to correlate between biochemical markers and clinical recordings
The objective of the present study is 1. To study the incidence and magnitude of bacteremia after periodontal flap surgery . 2. To compare and evaluate the effect of diode laser on frequency of bacteremia associated with periodontal flap surgery . 3. To study the incidence of bacteremia after laser therapy
Primary purpose: Evaluate the effect of azithromycin on failure proportion of severe chronic periodontitis non-surgical treatment; failure characterized by the persistence of at least one periodontal pocket> 5mm at 6 months Secondary purpose: - Evaluate the effect of azithromycin on the persistence of pathological periodontal pockets > 5mm during non-surgical treatment of severe chronic periodontitis at 3 months and 6 months - Evaluate the effect of azithromycin on the changes of clinical signs, periopathogen levels, expression of macrolides resistance genes, and expression of antimicrobial peptides (PAMs) during treatment of severe chronic periodontitis at 3 months and 6 months - Assess therapeutic observance and side effects of antibiotic treatment - Assess at 3 and 6 months the potential interactions of local, bacterial (periopathogen and resistance gene) clinical factors, and host defense (PAMs) with the effect of azithromycin, on failure proportion of severe chronic periodontitis non-surgical treatment
