Filter by:To clinically evaluate the treatment of mandibular class II furcation defects with enamel matrix derivative (EMD) and/or a bone substitute graft make of beta tricalcium phosphate/hydroxyapatite (βTCP/HA).
Till date, no study has been reported in the literature where porous bioactive glass was used for the management of periodontal osseous defects. In this context, the present study is designed to assess the efficacy of the porous variant of bioactive glass and compare with that of nonporous variant using cone beam computed tomography.
The objective of this study was to evaluate whether short-term full mouth disinfection protocol could have a greater reduction in the levels of halitosis and volatile sulfur compound or not, when compared to quadrant-wise scaling and root planing
The hypothesis of the investigators' project is that comprehensive primary preterm birth prevention, inclusive of maternal oral health with xylitol chewing gum (the intervention), will reduce the rate of periodontal disease and caries, preterm birth prevalence, and neonatal mortality.
This study examines how periodontal disease affects the complications of diabetes and how treatment for periodontal disease affects biomarkers associated with the complications of diabetes.
The aim of this study was to investigate the levels of RANKL and Osteoprotegerin, and their relationship in gingival crevicular fluid of post-menopausal women with osteoporosis/osteopenia and chronic periodontitis simultaneously and evaluate the effect that the use of bisphosphonates in periodontal disease. Study hypothesis: "The osteoporosis / osteopenia in postmenopausal women patients with periodontal disease affect the ratio RANKL / OPG in gingival crevicular fluid samples favoring osteoclastogenesis processes "
The treatment of otolaryngology (OLR) cancer is based on surgery, radiation, sometimes used in combination with chemotherapy. Patients treated with radiotherapy have multiple oral diseases: mucositis, hyposalivation, tissue fibrosis, exacerbation of periodontitis. Over 70% of patients with head and neck cancers treated with radiotherapy have a lower level of dental clinical attachment and 92% have loose teeth or missing. The management of these oral complications is a priority in OLR oncology. The aim is to improve the oral health of patients to achieve a comfortable life acceptable and necessary for healing. This project proposes to deepen the investigation with two main objectives: 1. To study in vivo the effect of radiation treatment on the evolution of the viral flora of the periodontium in a cohort of patients and matched controls. 2. To study in vitro the effects of irradiation on the replication EBV (herpesvirus) in producing websites lymphoepithelial tonsillar, and atypical dendritic cells associated with EBV that existence were recently discovered.
The prevalence of cardiovascular disease is rising; new methods must be created to assess the cardiovascular status of patients. If cardiovascular disease can be predicted, it may facilitate prevention. An association between periodontal disease and cardiovascular has been established, but a definitive mechanism is not understood. A good first step in finding that mechanism is to look at the correlation between periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease, both of which have an inflammatory component. This study observes the level of cardiovascular disease in patients and correlates it with the presence and degree of periodontal pathogens.
Evaluate and compare the effectiveness in a clinical and microbial perspective one stage full-mouth disinfection technique in relation to scaling and root planing per quadrant associated with chlorhexidine or azithromycin.
This clinical study compared a conventional surgical technique (CST) and a minimally invasive surgical technique (MIST) in the regenerative treatment of mandibular furcation defects.
