Filter by:The objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical effect and the impact on the quality of life of the coadjuvant treatment with Oxyflower® gel in cases of pericoronitis in lower third molar, compared to chlorhexidine gel and placebo gel.
Pericoronitis is a painful inflammatory condition which is well known for its negative impact on quality of life of those affected. The aim of this study was to test two hypotheses: (1) that topical application of Benzydamine is as effective as oral Diclofenac or Flurbiprofen in improving pain and quality of life of patients with pericoronitis and (2) that there would be no difference between the effects of the two oral NSAIDs on pain and quality of life of patients with pericoronitis
In order to reduce the chances of systemic dissemination of the infection and the use of antibiotics, it is mandatory to test effective treatments in the initial phase of pericoronitis aiming to avoid the evolution of the infectious disease. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an interesting alternative because it is an effective antimicrobial treatment that is easy to perform and does not cause bacterial resistance. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of photodynamic therapy (PDT) with methylene blue in a surfactant vehicle in pericoronitis in the initial phase in healthy youngsters through microbiological, clinical and immunoregulatory response. The impact of pericoronitis on oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of these patients will also be evaluated. 34 healthy young patients with pericoronitis will be evaluated. Microbiological analysis will be performed by RT-PCR for the bacterium Tannarella forsithia (Tf).Gingival crevicular fluid will be collected to evaluate TNF-α, IL1-β, IL-6 and IL-8 and IL-10 by the Luminex assay. The variables will be pain (visual analogue scale), edema, trismus (digital caliper) and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) will also be evaluated through the OHIP-14 questionnaire. The variables will be assessed at T1 (baseline)and T2 (4th day after PDT).
This clinical research focus on evaluating the effectiveness of Huanglian-Jiedu Decoction in patients with intense-exuberant stomach fire syndrome (one of the common TCM syndrome)of acute pericoronitis,minor recurrent aphthous stomatitis and recurrent herpes simplex labialis,meanwhile, exploring the pharmacological mechanism and potential biomarkers of this traditional formula.
The complications that could occur during or after the extraction of the mandibular third molar teeth with pericoronitis affect patient's life quality considerably. Various scales are used to reveal how much the life quality of patients is affected this treatment. The aim of this study is to identify the long term life quality of patients through the OHIP-14 TR scale without removing the mandibular third molar teeth with mild pericoronitis.
The purpose of this research study is to find out if the infection around 3rd molars and the resulting inflammation around the gum also produces a general systemic inflammation.
