PDT As An Adjunct To SRP In The Management of Chronic Periodontitis

Status Not yet recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The present study aims to evaluate photodynamic therapy (PDT) using Zinc oxide as a photosensitizer as an adjunct to scaling and root planing (SRP) in the management of chronic periodontitis.

Clinical Trial Description

Following full mouth SRP, each quadrant will be randomly assigned by simple randomization using a computer generated randomization technique into one of the following four treatment modalities.

Group 1 (control) - Application of placebo gel followed by sham PDT (Directing the Light cure device without turning on the light beam).

Group 2 -Application of Zinc oxide gel followed by sham PDT. Group 3 - Application of placebo gel followed by PDT. Group 4 - Application of Zinc oxide gel followed by PDT. The procedure mentioned for each group will be performed on all periodontal pockets in the assigned quadrant at baseline, end of 1 week and 1 month from the first session.

Clinical parameters and microbial profile will be recorded at baseline (before commencement of Periodontal treatment), end of 1 month and end of 3 months following periodontal treatment.

Zinc oxide gel/placebo gel will be placed into the periodontal pockets using a blunt cannula ensuring that starting from the bottom, it completely fills the periodontal pockets. The gel will be retained in the pocket for 5 minutes. The perio tip will be attached to the hand piece of the light cure unit (Wavelength: 420-480nm. Light power: 1200mw/cm2 in continuous mode) and light will be activated for 60 seconds. Following this, the pockets will be irrigated with normal saline solution (0.9%Sodium chloride). ;
