Filter by:The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of hyaluronic acid gel after photobiomodulation on the healing of surgical gingivectomy sites
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of PRF, CGF and AFG application on early wound healing after gingivectomy and gingivoplasty operations. In the study designed split mouth, gingivectomy and gingivoplasty surgery were performed on 19 patients. The postoperative PRF, CGF, and AFG applied areas were compared with the control regions. 0th,7 th,14 th and 28 th on the days, the surgical area was painted with mira-2-tone solution and evaluated in the ImageJ program. Measurements of clinical periodontal parameters including PI, GI, SC and SD were recorded at the beginning, after IPT and 28 days after the operation. Wound healing was evaluated with H2O2 test, VAS-Pain, and LTH index on 7th, 14th and 28th days. The patients were asked to evaluate their aesthetic perceptions on the VAS aesthetic scale.
Postoperative pain and wound healing are compared after using conventional scalpel technique in comparison with the intervention which is using Soft tissue Trimmer for cases of gingival hyperplasia.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate and determine clinical and biochemical comparison of 3 different methods including Er:YAG laser, diod laser, and conventional techniques. Method: This study was conducted on 32 female, 13 male, a total of 45 individuals (study group patients) with an indication of resective gingival surgery in the anterior region of the maxillar anterior regions and 11 female, 4 men, a total of 15 individuals (negative control group patients) with a healthy gingiva. Clinical periodontal parameters, gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) KGF-2 and VEGF-A levels and gingival temperature levels were recorded before the investigation and during operations with 3 different techniques, gingival temperature was measured. Gingival temperature and epithelization levels in 3, 7, 14 and 21 days; GCF KGF-2 and VEGF-A levels in 14 and 21 days and pain levels between 1-7 days of post-operative healing process were evaluated. Preoperative anxiety and postoperative satisfaction were evaluated through questionnaires
Aim: Gingival enlargement is a common clinical condition which requires surgical approaches to alleviating these enlargement areas. The aim of this study was to investigate epithelization, gingival temperature, inflammation and pain levels in post-operative healing process in 4 different gingivectomy techniques including Er:YAG laser, Nd:YAG laser, electrosurgery and conventional gingivectomy in treatment of chronic inflammatory gingival enlargements. Material and Method: A split-mouth designed study was conducted on 37 systemically healthy patients consisting of 19 females and 18 males, who had gingival enlargement areas on the left and right of maxillary and mandibular anterior regions. Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) samples were collected, clinical periodontal parameters and gingival temperature levels were recorded at baseline and in the postoperative period. The gingival temperature was measured during surgical procedures. Gingival temperature and epithelization levels in 3rd, 7th, 10th and 15th days; GCF levels in 15th, 30th, and 90th days and pain levels in 2nd and 8th hours and between 1st-7th days of post-operative healing process were evaluated.
Aesthetics for individuals become increasingly important, while the aesthetic effects of periodontal disease is an important issue that should be assessed by the patient's perception. The results demonstrate that the periodontal aesthetic perception scale showed reliable and valid scores in healthy controls and periodontal patients. The periodontal aesthetic perception scale may be an appropriate tool to assess periodontal esthetic in clinical and research settings.
The aim of this study is to compare the clinical outcomes of open-flap (OF) and flapless (FL) esthetic crown lengthening (ECL) for the treatment of excessive gingival display (EGD). It was hypothesized that the FL surgery would yield similar clinical results to the OF technique up to 12 months. Methods: A split-mouth randomized controlled trial will be conducted in 28 subjects presenting EGD. Contralateral quadrants will receive ECL using OF or FL techniques. Clinical parameters will be evaluated at baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months post-surgeries. The local levels of receptor activator of NF-КB ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) will be assessed by ELISA at baseline and 3 months. Patients' perceptions regarding morbidity and esthetical appearance will be also evaluated. Periodontal tissue dimensions will be obtained by computed tomography at baseline and correlated with the changes in the gingival margin (GM).
Phenytoin, a common anti-seizure drug, leads to cosmetically unacceptable side effect of gingival overgrowth in a significant number of patients. There is some evidence of therapeutic effect of folic acid in cases of established phenytoin induced gingival overgrowth. In this study, the aim is to study the prospective preventive effect of low dose oral folic acid supplementation on phenytoin induced gingival overgrowth in epileptic children.
This study will examine common features of gingival overgrowth (excessive growth of the gums around the teeth) that develops in patients with the hereditary form of the condition and in those who develop the condition as a side effect of medications. A better understanding of gingival overgrowth may help scientists develop medications with fewer oral side effects. Patients of any age with hereditary gingival fibromatosis and their blood relatives, and patients of any age with gingival overgrowth who are taking medications associated with development of the disorder, including phenytoin (diphenylhydantoin or Dilantin), cyclosporine, and calcium-channel blockers, may be eligible for this study. Participants undergo a medical and dental history, including a history of medication use; detailed examination of the teeth, periodontium, head, and neck; photographs of teeth with gingival overgrowth; dental x-rays; and blood tests. DNA is extracted from a blood sample to look for genes related to gingival overgrowth. Patients with gingival overgrowth are offered two options, as follows: - Tissue biopsy: A tissue sample is taken from each affected site, with a maximum of three biopsies. For the procedure, lidocaine is first injected into the gum to numb the tissue. Then, a cookie-cutter instrument is pushed into the numbed skin, and a small piece of tissue is removed. - Gingivectomy: Surgical removal of the overgrown gingival.
