Clinical Trial Summary

The present study aimed to investigate clinically the cleaning effectiveness of different treatment modalities, that is, oral irrigator or interdental brush usage addition to routine brushing and examine interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-10, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1, MMP-8 levels in gingival crevicular fluid of orthodontic patients. The null hypothesis was that oral irrigators would be effective compared to interdental brush in the oral care of individuals who are orthodontic patients.


Clinical Trial Description

The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of oral irrigator (OI) with interdental brush (IB) clinically and biochemically in orthodontic patients. Thirty patients were randomly divided into two equal groups; patients using OI in addition to manuel brushing (OI-group), patients using IB in addition to manual brushing (IB-group). Study was planned as randomized, single-blind, parallel-design. Periodontal indexes were recorded clinically and interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-10, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1, MMP-8 levels in gingival crevicular fluid were evaluated biochemically. After baseline examinations [Silness-Löe plaque index(PI), Löe-Silness gingival index(GI), probing pocket depth(PPD), clinical attachment level(CAL), bleeding on probing(BOP)], initial periodontal therapy was completed using full-mouth disinfection method. The data was collected in the baseline, 2nd, 4th and 8th weeks. The hypothesis of our study is that oral irrigators may be effective in oral care of orthodontic patients because of the ease of use. ;
