Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to compare quadrant scaling and root planing (Q-SRP) versus full-mouth treatment (FM-SRP) in terms of acute-phase responses following non surgical periodontal treatment in patients affected by periodontitis and high blood pressure.

Description:

Periodontal treatment, consisting in both supra- and sub-gingival mechanical instrumentation of the root surface (scaling and root planing), will be performed by a single periodontist on patients with periodontitis and hypertension.

The aim of this study is to compare quadrant scaling and root planing (Q-SRP) versus full-mouth treatment (FM-SRP) in terms of acute-phase responses following non surgical periodontal treatment in patients affected by periodontitis and high blood pressure.

Treatment will be provided using both hand and ultrasonic instrumentation with fine tips.

FM-SRP patients will received treatment within 24 h. Q-SRP patients will received four quadrants sessions of periodontal treatment with an interval of 1 week between sessions.

Vital, endothelial function and blood inflammatory parameters will be evaluated at baseline, 24 hours after the first treatment and after 3 months. Periodontal parameters will be evaluated at baseline and after 3 months.

• Periodontitis

Intervention

Procedure:
• FM-SRP
Supra- and sub-gingival mechanical instrumentation of the root surface of the whole dentition within 24 hours.
• Q-SRP
Supra- and sub-gingival mechanical instrumentation of the root surface will be performed in all dentition subdivided in four appointments. Each appointment will be performed in one week interval. In each appointment only a "quadrant" of the dentition will be instrumented.Performed in 3 weeks time frame.
