Filter by:This study is conducted to evaluate validity of Diabetes Risk Assessment in Dentistry Score (DDS) in Indian population as a screening tool to identify patients with prediabetes and undiagnosed type 2 diabetes in dental setting. The DDS score of the patient will be correlated with the HbA1c levels and periodontal status of the patient. Such a study has been conducted in Germany but none has been validated in Indian population. Hence this study aims to assess the performance of DDS screening tool in Indian population.
Developing neural network-based models for image analysis can be time-consuming, requiring dataset design and model training. No-code AI platforms allow users to annotate object features without coding. Corrective annotation, a "human-in-the-loop" approach, refines AI segmentations iteratively. Dentistry has seen success with no-code AI for segmenting dental restorations. This study aims to assess radiographic features related to root canal treatment quality using a "human-in-the-loop" approach.
The aim of this feasibility trial is to determine if it is safe and feasible to treat oral health diseases in people with haematological cancers before they start their chemotherapy to reduce complications and disruption to planned chemotherapy dose or schedule.
The purpose of this prospective study is to determine the effect of non-surgical root canal treatment in chronic kidney disease patients and healthy patients with apical periodontitis.
Intrinsic apoptosis pathway plays a critical role in the host immune defense and inflammation and its dysregulation is involved in various chronic diseases. Bcl-2 protein family primarly mediates this mitochondrial pathway. This study aimed to investigate the pro-apoptotic Bax and anti-apoptotic Bcl-xl levels and their association with interleukin-22 (IL-22) and transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of patients with periodontitis. In total 75 systemically healthy and non-smoker individuals consisting of stage III periodontitis (n=23), gingivitis (n=26), periodontally healthy (n=26) were enrolled. Whole-mouth clinical periodontal measurements were recorded. Bax, Bcl-xl, IL-22 and TGF-β1 levels in GCF were determined by ELISA. Data were analyzed using non-parametric statistical tests.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate impact of Minimally Invasive Non-Surgical Therapy (MINST) with and without splinting on clinical periodontal parameters and Oral Health Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) in periodontitis patients with mobile anterior teeth. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does splinting provide additional benefit to MINST alone for improving the clinical periodontal parameters ? - Does splinting provide additional benefit to MINST alone for improving OHRQoL ?
The aim of the present cross-sectional study is to assess the presence of AP and caries in psoriasis vulgaris individuals and to examine whether these medications influence these oral conditions. Therefore, 154 patients diagnosed with psoriasis were included in the study and subjected to oral examination to assess for presence of periapical lesions and caries experience.
Bruxism is a non-functional repetitive jaw-muscle activity characterized by grinding or clenching the teeth. Bruxism, characterized by the involuntary grinding or clenching of teeth, is a prevalent parafunctional habit affecting individuals of all ages. Stress, anxiety, and depression are the psychological factors most commonly associated with the presence of bruxism.
SUMMARY TITLE: "Effect of endodontic treatment on inflammatory markers, disease activity and periapical healing in rheumatoid arthritis patients with apical periodontitis" RATIONALE: Chronic inflammation plays a pivotal role in rheumatoid arthritis as subjects present with elevated serum levels of numerous cytokines such as IL-1, IL-6, 1L-12, IL-17, tumour necrosis factor-alpha, RANK and RANK Ligand. Periodontal and pulpal inflammation are two major low grade chronic inflammatory diseases of the oral cavity. Apical periodontitis extends from the chronic inflammatory process that originated in the dental pulp to surround the apex of the tooth. Thus Rheumatoid arthritis and apical periodontitis converge upon common pathway of inflammation. The scientific literature has also shown to provide potential link between endodontic infection and rheumatoid arthritis. The evidence of increased prevalence of apical periodontitis in subjects of rheumatoid arthritis is provided mainly by cross-sectional and case control studies. Interventional studies have been performed in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis and periodontal disease, with results depicting beneficial effect of periodontal therapy in patients of rheumatoid arthritis. To best of our knowledge no interventional study has been performed to assess the healing pattern of apical periodontitis in subjects of rheumatoid arthritis and subsequently effect of endodontic intervention on inflammatory profile and disease burden in the same.
The aim of this clinical study is; Comparatively comparing salivary Soluble Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor (SuPAR), Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α), E-cadherin, galectin 3, IL-4, IL-10 and TNF-α levels in individuals with different Periodontal Disease Degrees and to evaluate and analyze correlations with clinical parameters. In our study, saliva samples will be taken from a total of 80 systemically healthy volunteers, 20 of patients are periodontal healthy, 20 of patients have degree A periodontitis, 20 of patients have degree B periodontitis and 20 of patients have degree C periodontitis, along with the measurement of whole mouth clinical parameters. Soluble Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor (SuPAR), Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α), E-cadherin, galectin 3, IL-4, IL-10 and TNF-α levels in the samples taken will be subjected to enzyme-related immunoassay ( It will be determined by ELISA). Cytokine levels between different groups will then be interpreted as a result of statistical analysis. Possible significant differences shed light on future studies with Soluble Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor (SuPAR), Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α), E-cadherin, galectin 3, IL-4, IL-10 and TNF-α. These cytokines may help develop different diagnostic methods or treatment strategies in future periodontal treatments.
