Filter by:Anti-infective procedures play a very important role in the success of regenerative surgical treatment of aggressive periodontitis, Grade C periodontitis, which shows the newly named molar-incisor pattern according to the 2017 World Workshop Classification of Periodontal Diseases. In the present study, it was aimed to analyze the effects of photodynamic, photobiomodulation, and ozone therapy applications on periodontal healing, both clinically and immunologically, in addition to the surgical regenerative treatment of aggressive periodontitis. Forty adult individuals diagnosed with aggressive periodontitis who applied to Gazi University Faculty of Dentistry Department of Periodontology for the treatment of periodontal disease were included in the study. In addition to the regenerative surgical treatment using cortico-cancellous particle allograft and a resorbable collagen membrane in randomly determined areas with multiple intraosseous defects, topical ozone, antimicrobial photodynamic, and light-emitting diode (LED) photobiomodulation treatments were applied. Periodontal clinical parameters [plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), bleeding on probing (BOP), probing pocket depths (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), gingival recession (GR), and width of keratinized gingival (WKG)] were examined and patient-centered postoperative evaluations, and early wound healing index (EHI) assessments were performed for 2 weeks after the operation. In addition, gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) samples from patients to determine the total amount and concentration of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), interleukin -6 (IL-6), Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RunX2), NEL-like 1 (Nell-1), Osterix and samples were quantified by Quantitative Real-Time PCR. The repeated measures ANOVA model was used for the analysis of variables in which both group and time measurements were taken.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical and microbiological effectiveness of the ozone application in stepwise excavation of primary molars. Methods: This study was conducted in vivo conditions with 105 lower primary second molars that had deep caries lesions with the risk of pulpal exposure. The teeth were randomly divided into three groups: Conventional stepwise excavation without any disinfectant, 2% chlorhexidine digluconate(CHX) and ozone application. In four different stages (after; initial excavation, ozone/CHX application, four months, final excavation), dentine samples were collected for microbiological analysis of mutans streptococci, lactobacilli and total number of colony forming units. Clinical changes as dentine colour, humidity, consistency were recorded. The data were analysed by Mann-Whitney U, Friedman and chi-square test.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and microbiological effectiveness of the ozone application in two-visit indirect pulp therapy. Materials and Methods: One hundred and five lower first molar teeth with deep caries lesion were included and randomly assigned three groups to apply two-visit indirect pulp therapy. Treatment procedure was applied without any disinfectant(control), with 60s 2% chlorhexidine digluconate(CHX) or 60s ozone application. In four different stage (after initial excavation, ozone/CHX application before the temporary restoration, four months later immediately after removing temporary restoration, and final excavation) dentin humidity, consistency and colour properties were recorded to evaluate the clinical characteristics of the tissue, and standard dentin samples were collected for the microbiological analysis of mutans streptococci, lactobacilli and the total number of colony forming units. The data were analyzed by using Mann-Whitney-U test for multiple comparisons.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of ozonated water on pain, edema and trismus after third molar removal. Patients were submitted to extraction of lower third molar under irrigation with ozonated water or doubly distilled water. Data were collected at baseline, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours and 7 days after intervention.
The research plan proposes translational studies in relevant animal models and human subjects in order to identify host (genetic) susceptibility factors that confer vulnerability to the prototypal air pollutant, ozone. The results will have significant impact upon, and aid in, understanding mechanisms regulating pro-oxidant lung injury, production and secretion of airway mucins, and clearance of respiratory mucus, and adverse health effects, that occur during and following exposure to airborne respiratory irritants.
