Filter by:Qualified subjects will be enrolled and randomized to either one of the two study groups described above based on their initial Plaque and Gingivitis scores. Subjects will be instructed to use the products according to the instructions provided. Subjects will return to the dental office for evaluation after three months of product use. All subjects will be followed for adverse events throughout the study.
Qualified subjects will be enrolled and randomly assigned to either of the two study groups based on their initial Plaque and Gingivitis scores. During the first visit, subjects will undergo three key procedures: 1) evaluation for baseline plaque and gingivitis, 2) brushing with the assigned regimen products for two minutes, and 3) assessment for post-brushing plaque only. Subjects will be provided with clear instructions for regimen product usage and will be expected to adhere to these instructions. Follow-up evaluations for plaque and gingivitis will be conducted at one week, six weeks, and three months after initiation of regimen product use. Throughout the study period, continuous monitoring for adverse events will be carried out for all subjects.
This pilot study evaluates the feasibility of conducting a larger Randomized Controlled Trial to compare three oral health education delivery methods to a control group. Except for the control group, mothers in the three intervention groups will receive the same oral health education based on the OHEM module but differ in the delivery methods, namely lecture, exhibition, and demonstration. All groups will receive a booklet and oral hygiene kits and be instructed to educate their children at home. Pre- and post-intervention assessments include the satisfaction of participants, the researchers' evaluation and cost of the trial, oral hygiene status, and the knowledge of the parents and children.
The objective of the present randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the use of Bixdo A30 Pro Ultra Compact Water Flosser (also referred to as the "Bixdo A30 Portable Water Flosser Travel Set") in addition to a manual toothbrush on clinical parameters of inflammation and bacterial plaque removal.
This randomized controlled trial will be conducted on 40 orthodontic patients at the Department of Orthodontics, University Hospital Centre Zagreb, Croatia. Respondents will be randomly allocated into 4 groups (n=10). The first group will receive photodynamic therapy, the second tricalcium phosphate varnish with 5% NaF (sodium fluoride), the third 1% chlorhexidine varnish, while the fourth group will be the negative control. Before and after the mentioned interventions, the participants will have the amount of plaque measured using the plaque index and the bacteriological composition of the plaque assessed using the mass spectrometry and PCR. The gingival condition will be assessed using the gingival index. Also, the occurrence of white spot lesions will be evaluated on intraoral photographs.
The purpose of this study is to understand if chewing xylitol-gum initiated before 20 weeks of pregnancy and continued until delivery affects the bacteria that are found in the oral and vaginal cavities, signs of inflammation within the gingiva of the oral cavity, the health of the tissues in the mouth (clinical parameters of periodontal disease), and the bacteria in the mouth and gut of newborns among pregnant individuals in Malawi.
Patients suffering from Mucous Membrane Pemphigoid with desquamative gingivitis (MMPg) generally present a more degraded periodontal condition compared with controls. Bullous disease could represent a risk factor for plaque-induced periodontal disease, and vice versa. Indeed, the dysbiotic periodontal microbiota could aggravate the gingival damage specific to MMP, either directly by activating inflammatory pathways, or indirectly by degrading cellular and matrix components. On the other hand, areas of erosive gingiva generated by the autoimmune process could increase the virulent power of periodontal pathobionts, by representing accessible, nutrient-rich connective surfaces. Moreover, in recent years, bacterial studies based on a high-throughput metagenomic approach have suggested the existence of a relationship between the oral and intestinal microbiota in patients with degraded periodontal conditions and suffering from autoimmune inflammatory diseases (inflammatory bowel disease, acute graft-versus-host disease). This relationship can also be envisaged in MMPg patients who meet the conditions that allow this type of pathological process to occur: autoimmune disease; disruption of the gingival epithelial barrier in erosive gingival areas (increasing the risk of antigen exposure); large amounts of thick plaque; degraded periodontal condition with the presence of numerous periodontal pockets from which periodontopathogenic bacteria can translocate intra-tissularly and cause distant adverse consequences. The main aim of this observational, multicentre, case-control, matched study is to compare the composition of the periodontal microbiota between MMPg patients and control patients (arm 2 and arm 3). The secondary objectives are to compare the composition of periodontal and intestinal microbiota in cases and control patients (arm 2 and arm 3), to compare periodontal microbiota composition in cases and control patients (arm 2) according to periodontitis severity, and to compare gut microbiota composition between cases and control patients (arm 2 and arm3). To date, no such study exists.
The objective of this twelve-week clinical research study is to assess the efficacy of two brushing regimens: 1) toothpaste with mouthwash containing sodium fluoride/zinc and manual toothbrush as compared to 2) regular fluoride toothpaste and manual toothbrush in the reduction of dental plaque and aid of gum problems.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about in the relationship between acne vulgaris and oral hygiene and gingivitis. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is there a relationship between the severity of acne vulgaris lesions and the severity of plaque-related gingivitis? - Could oral hygiene or the severity of plaque-related gingivitis have an impact on the treatment of acne lesions? Participants will; - First be examined at the dermatology clinic. - Then be examined at the periodontology clinic. - Participants with severe acne vulgaris lesions will be examined a second time at the dermatology clinic. (1.5 months after the first examination) - Regularly use the antibiotic containing 100 mg doxycycline prescribed in the dermatology clinic for acne treatment. (Patients deemed suitable by the dermatologist)
To evaluate the level of proinflammatory cytokines in individual vaping electronic cigarette in gingivitis patients. Can vaping affects the proinflammatory cytokines level in diseased individuals? Group I: cigarette smoker with gingivitis. Group II: electronic cigarette smoker with gingivitis. Group III: non-smoker with gingivitis. participants will be asked to perform oral hygiene instructions. measurement of inflammatory biomarkers MMP8 and MMP9 base line and after intervention will be done.
