Filter by:Clinically, the gingival retraction dentistry itself has found wide uses. It has achieved the use of subgingival and gingival crowns in fixed prostheses, cervical abrasion in restorative dentistry, management of root caries and root sensitivity, and recently in the use of appropriate measurements to improve the marginal fit of implant prostheses.There are three different retraction procedures described in the literature: mechanical, mechanical-chemical (chemically impregnated cords or matrix in injectable form) and surgery (electrosurgical, laser, cauterization, etc.)The mechanical method of retraction cords is not always suitable for patients' existing pocket depth, the necessity of using different combinations in shallow or deep pockets, the potential for limited bleeding control in chemically impregnated cords and the toxicity values in those who interact with chemical have led researchers to search for alternative methods. Especially inflammed gingiva is very sensitive to mechanical and chemical trauma. Studies have reported that gingival inflammation, pain, pocket formation, gingival withdrawal, increased bleeding and wound contamination occurred following retraction cord application. However, it is a known fact that the impression material is distorted or the accuracy of the measurement is decreased with the measurements taken without retraction. Nowadays, CAD / CAM (computer-aided design / computer-aided manufacturing) devices, which are designed to overcome these problems and eliminate the errors related to the measurement material, are the first step to be taken with a clear measure.Gingival retraction is recommended to improve the success of scanners in all restorations performed at the gingival or subgingival endpoint. Therefore, in our study, crown restorations will be produced from hybrid blocks by means of CAD / CAM device in order to evaluate the interaction of gingival health with hybrid blocks and to provide the latest technology and standardization.
The premise of the relationship between the atherosclerotic process of coronary artery disease and periodontal disease is the immunoinflammatory process, which causes a significant increase in serum concentration of mannose-binding lectin. This protein is part of the innate immunity and has the ability to bind to the mannose residues common to various pathogens. Animal studies also showed that increased serum concentration of sirtuin-1 was associated with reduced inflammation. Evidence indicates that sirtuin-1 plays an important role in vascular protection and is associated with aging. OBJECTIVES: This study examined the influence of non-surgical treatment of periodontal disease on the serum concentration of mannose-binding lectin and sirtuin-1 in patients with periodontal disease and coronary artery disease. METHODS: Seventy-eight patients, 38 women and 40 men, mean age 58 ± 8 years old, were divided into 4 groups: 20 healthy subjects (group 1), 18 patients with coronary artery disease and without periodontal disease (group 2), 20 patients with periodontal disease and without coronary artery disease (group 3) and 20 patients with coronary artery disease and periodontal disease (group 4). Peripheral blood samples were collected at the beginning and at the end of the treatment of periodontal disease.
This research targets the evaluation of the impact of oral health educational programs on the gingival status and oral health related quality of life in early adolescence of the Egyptian population. Each participant will benefit from the education of the proper oral hygiene practices under the supervision and follow up of the investigator in addition to the potential improvement of his/ her oral health related quality of life.
The expression and quantification of Micro-RNA 146-a, was analyzed in the subgingival plaque samples of generalized chronic periodontitis patients with and without coronary heart disease. The demographic variables and periodontal parameters were assessed and correlated with expression of micro-RNA 146-a. The quantification of levels of micro-RNA 146-a was done using Real time Polymerase chain reaction. ( RT-PCR)
Regulatory effects of some neuropeptides substance-P (SP), neurokinin-A (NKA), calcitonin gene-linked peptide (CGRP) and neuropeptide-Y (NPY) )on inflammatory responses in periodontal disease has been described; however, the impact of neuropeptide levels are not clearly defined in healthy and diseased peri-implant tissues.ın order to evaluate the situation, thirty-nine implants that have been loaded over the past 12 months and their symmetrically matching teeth were evaluated using a split-mouth study design. Clinical periodontal examinations included the Silness-Löe plaque index, Löe-Silness gingival index, bleeding on probing, probing pocket depth and clinical attachment level parameters were determined. Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF)/Periimplant sulcular fluid (PISF) samples were collected, and the levels of the neuropeptides were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Correlations between GCF/PISF neuropeptide levels and the clinical examination parameters were evaluated in the peri-implant/periodontal soft tissues.
The objective of this cross - sectional observational study will be to evaluate the oral conditions of indigenous people in the state of Roraima, comparing habits and hygiene conditions in each ethnicity evaluated. This project was submitted to the Coordination of the Yanomami Indigenous Special Sanitary District, the CONDISI presidency and the CASAI leadership. Around 200 indigenous people from the aforementioned ethnic groups, of both sexes, aged between 18 and 75 years, will be evaluated
the purpose of the present study was to compare the effects of non-surgical periodontal therapy by clinical and biochemical parameters on patients undergoing continous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis(CAPD) due to diabetic nephropathy and non-diabetic
This study is intended to measure serum trefoil factor 3 at baseline and 3 months after, following nonsurgical periodontal therapy in patients with Gingivitis and Chronic Periodontitis.
The aim of this study is to compare surgical treatment of periodontal infrabony defects with and without the adjunct of an enemal matrix derivative (EMD) in terms of acute-phase responses, in systemic healthy patients.
This study aimed to investigate gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and salivary hypoxia inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) levels in different periodontal diseases. A total of 87 individuals, 20 patients with generalized aggressive periodontitis, 20 with chronic periodontitis, 26 with gingivitis and 21 periodontally healthy individuals were included. Whole-mouth and site-specific clinical periodontal parameters including probing depth, clinical attachment level, bleeding on probing, gingival index and plaque index were recorded. GCF and salivary HIF-1α, VEGF and TNF-α levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Statistical analysis was performed by using non-parametric tests.
