Filter by:The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the home-use device Silk'n toothbrush (ToothWave) for the improvement in dental health through the reduction of plaque, gingivitis, and calculus.
Clinical evaluation of using erythritol powder as air polishing with ultrasonic scaling and root planing in the treatment of initial periodontal pockets. This trial will be split-mouth design, in which each patient will receive traditional treatment (ultrasonic mechanical therapy and polishing) in one side, while the contralateral two quadrants of the jaws will be treated with erythritol powder by means of air polishing and ultrasonic scaling and root planing.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of a new toothpaste containing stannous fluoride (SnF) as compared to Colgate Fluoride Toothpaste in reducing gingivitis and dental plaque.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the impact of oral hygiene changes (drastic plaque and gingival inflammation reduction) on markers of systemic inflammation and indicators of oral health related quality of life and other aspects related to overall well-being. The primary objective is to assess a possible reduction of systemic inflammation as measured through blood bio-markers one month after drastic changes of plaque accumulation. As primary outcome measure, the level of high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) will be assessed.
This study will compare the use of text message reminders versus multiple in-person sessions of oral hygiene instructions and motivation on improving oral hygiene measurements.
- Periodontal disease- Inflammatory, Multifactorial, and Threshold disease. Periodontal disease is a highly prevalent dental disease, an almost 100% prevalence in developing countries. - Non-surgical periodontal includes scaling and root planing (SRP) an essential part of successful periodontal therapy. - The spread of infection through aerosol and splatter has long been considered one of the main reason for the possible transmission of infectious agents and their ill effects on The Health of patients and Dental Health care Professionals. - Aerosols are generated during Tooth preparation/Rotary instrument/ air abrasion/Air-water syringe, Ultrasonic scaler, and while doing Air polishing. - Studies have also reported an association of these aerosols with Respiratory infections, Ophthalmic and Skin infections, Tuberculosis, and Hepatitis B. current research suggests that having patients use an antimicrobial rinse before treatment may decrease microbial aerosols. - Chlorhexidine mouthwash is regarded as Gold Standard mouthwash but, have many local side effects including have many local side effects including extrinsic tooth and tongue brown staining, taste disturbance, enhanced supragingival calculus formation, less commonly, desquamation of oral mucosa, and even liver damage in rats. - In the emerging era of pharmaceuticals, herbal medicines with their naturally occurring active ingredients offer a gentle and enduring way for the restoration of health by the least harmful method. - Ocimum Sanctum (Tulsi) is known as THE QUEEN OF HERBS effective in reducing plaque accumulation, gingival inflammation, and bleeding & has no side effects as compared to Chlorhexidine. Very few studies which can be counted on fingers have been conducted worldwide in this direction, globally showing their beneficial effects.
AIM: To evaluate the association of the levels of blood haemoglobin to the distribution and severity of gingival melanin pigmentation at 3 different periodontal health status SAMPLE SIZE ESTIMATION - Done using GPower v.3.1.9.2 - Total sample size = 60 (20 each in 3 groups) - Effect size = 40% - Power = 80% - α-error = 5% SAMPLING: - Simple random sampling - Subjects to be recruited from out patient pool of KLE Society's Institute of Dental Sciences, Bangalore - Subjects to be categorised into 3 groups (20 subjects each) 1. Group A - Healthy periodontium 2. Group B - Gingivitis 3. Group C - Periodontitis PARAMETERS ASSESSED - Blood Haemoglobin Concentration (in %gm/dL) - Hedin Melanin Index Score 0: No pigmentation Score 1: one or two solitary unit(s) of pigmentation in papillary gingiva without formation of a continuous ribbon between solitary units Score 2: More than three units of pigmentation in papillary gingiva without the formation of a continuous ribbons of pigmentation Score 3: One or more short continuous ribbons of pigmentation Score 4: One continuous ribbon including the entire area between canines STATISTICAL ANALYSIS - SPSS for Windows Version 22.0 to be used - Descriptive statistics: It includes expression of study parameters in terms of Mean & SD for continuous variables, whereas in terms of frequency and proportions for categorical variables. - Inferential Statistics: Chi Square Test will be used to compare the pigmentation index between 03 groups. And similarly, gender wise comparison of hemoglobin concentration will be done using the same test. One-way ANOVA test followed by Tukey's HSD post hoc Analysis will be used to compare the mean hemoglobin levels based on the pigmentation index scores in each group. The level of significance [P-Value] was set at P<0.05
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled 2-arm, parallel group clinical trial is designed to evaluate the impact of the regular consumption of collagen peptides on the clinical signs of gingival and periodontal inflammation in a cohort of patients suffering from periodontal disease.
Using an experimental, non-invasive intra-oral imaging device, this study evaluates the effects on the gingival tissue when oral hygiene is stopped in a section of the mouth for two weeks and gingivitis develops. The effects on the gingival tissue continues to be evaluated as oral hygiene is resumed and the gingival tissue returns to health.
The objective of this study is to evaluate, through clinical, microbiological and immunological tests, the changes during the experimental gingivitis and mucositis model, between teeth and implants, and between patients with a history of aggressive periodontitis and healthy individuals.
