Filter by:Objectives: This study aimed to determine the effect of concomitant antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPTD) on periodontal disease and glycaemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Clinical Relevance: aPTD is a noninvasive adjunctive therapy that can positively influence the periodontal treatment outcome.
The idea of treating different deformities or diseases in the maxillofacial region with Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) has recently become popular. Shockwave therapy was first introduced in Germany in 1980s and has been widely used in medical practice for the management of urolithiasis, cholelithiasis and in head and neck region for sialolithiasis. The present study 'Application of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy on human gingival derived fibroblasts In-vitro study' was done to explore and evaluate the effect of shockwaves. Further, these cells were assessed for Cell - Cell interaction and Cell Viability. In this in-vitro study, 20 fibroblast cells were included. 10 samples were considered for Control group and the remaining 10 samples were considered as Test group. Extracorporeal shockwave was applied to the Test samples. They were further analysed
The goal of this split-mouth clinical trial is to evaluate the effects of Manuka honey applied into periodontal pockets after initial periodontal therapy (NSPT) in the treatment of stage 3 periodontitis. The main question it aims to answer is: • does the adjunct of Manuka honey improve the outcome of the non-surgical periodontal treatment. The intervention in this study was conducted in a split-mouth design, meaning that after completing the NSPT for each subject, Manuka honey was administered as an adjunct to the periodontal treatment in two randomly selected quadrants of the oral cavity around the teeth with a specially designed cannula. This was followed by oral hygiene instructions and training. The home-performed oral hygiene procedures were focused on interdental cleaning using dental floss and toothbrushing with regular fluoride-containing toothpaste. The subjects were also instructed not to use any form of oral antiseptic (e.g., chlorhexidine) or antibiotic during the follow-up period.
this study addresses the effect of the vitamin B3 and vitamin B9 on the periodontal healing at the sites of periodontal destruction due to periodontitis and evaluate its added effect to the conventional non-surgical periodontal treatment on its pivotal role in the biological activities and repair in the body in general and the periodontium in specific. The research will be conducted on patients suffering from stage I and II periodontitis that typically are to be treated with non surgical periodontal therapy, the rationale of the non surgical periodontal treatment is eliminating the plaque biofilm responsible for stimulation of host immune defense causing the inflammation and hence suppressing the periodontal destruction. the trial is targeting enhancing the treatment effect by the administration of vitamin B3 and B9 supplements which will target the host inflammatory reaction itself and directly suppressing it as well as enhancing the periodontal regeneration and the gain of the lost attachment.
The present study aimed to investigate the effects of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) as an adjunct to non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT) on the plasminogen-activating system in Stage 3-4, Grade C periodontitis patients.
Introduction: Gingival recession is a lesion characterized by the loss of attachment of root surface of the tooth, resulting in an apical migration of the gingival margin that occasionally generates aesthetic problems, hypersensitivity and difficulty in maintaining proper hygiene. Several anatomical factors have been associated both with the incidence and progression of gingival recession and with the prognosis of the surgical treatments proposed for its correction. These factors include the absence of keratinized tissue, the gingival phenotype, root prominence and shallow vesrtibular depth. Objectives: The objective of the study is to evaluate, through a series of prospective cases, the influence of each of the anatomical factors on the success of root coverage. Methods: 20 patients with gingival recession defects will be treated with CAF+CTG using various autogenous gingival graft. Three-dimensional analysis of superimposed preoperative and postoperative images will be performed. Linear and surface root coverage will be calculated and correlated to various anatomical parameters such as vestibular depth and root prominence. A multilevel statistical analysis will be conducted, adjusting for the correlation among multiple observations.
OrACell has been tested as a barrier in bone regenerative procedures showing promising results in new bone formation after socket preservation, but no data is available on root coverage procedures. Moreover, it has been suggested that keratinized tissue width (KTW) ≥2mm and gingival thickness (GT) ≥1.2 mm at 6 months of the surgical procedures are two important predictors for long term stability of gingival margin Therefore, it was hypothesized that soft tissue thickness and keratinized tissue width may influence the percentage of root coverage. By means of a prospective case series (12 patients in total), the aim is to study the performance of the OrACell dermal matrix in the treatment of multiple and adjacent gingival recessions, determining the amount of complete root coverage obtained at 6 months of follow-up. At the same time, it is intended to evaluate the effect of initial gingival thickness, by means of digital scanning, upon the success of root coverage procedure with OrACell.
This study compared the clinical outcomes of the non-incised papila surgical approach (NIPSA) alone and with grafting biomaterial.
Investigators hypothesize that in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) the severity of periodontal disease is significantly higher compared to patients without OSA in every aspect, including PI, PD, CAL and BOP. The number of lost teeth is hypothesized to be also higher in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. Purpose: evaluation of periodontal status in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. An analytical cross-sectional study will be conducted at the Department of Therapeutic Dentistry of the Sechenov University, Moscow. Investigators are planning to recruit 100 patients: 1) patients with OSA confirmed by polysomnography -75 participants aged between 35 and 65; 2) patients without OSA -25 participants of a similar age. Patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome will be sub-divided into three sub-groups according to OSA severity: 2A group - patients with mild apnea severity; 2B group - patients with medium apnea severity; 2C group - patients with severe apnea. All participants will undergo a dental examination including the following parameters: plaque index (PI; Silness & Loe, 1964), bleeding on probing (BOP), and touch depth of the pocket (PD), the level of clinical attachment loss (CAL). Investigators will also evaluate the number of lost teeth.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of pulp test in teeth presenting with deep periodontal pocket. The null hypothesis is no significant effect of periodontitis on the accuracy of pulp test.
