Periodontitis, Adult Clinical Trial
Official title:
Efficacy of Proanthocyanidins in Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy: a Randomized Controlled Trial
The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of proanthocyanidins as an adjunctive periodontal therapy in patients with periodontitis. Recently proanthocyanidins were proposed as a viable adjunct to periodontal treatment. Preclinical studies have shown high antibacterial and anti-inflammatory capacities of proanthocyanidins, that could reduce periodontal inflammation and promote periodontal tissues regeneration. In addition, proanthocyanidins demonstrate a specific antibacterial characteristic to attack periodonto-pathogenic bacteria (Porphyromonas gingivalis) but save the oral commensal bacteria (Streptococcus salivarius). Patients with periodontitis (stage III-IV) were included in this study. Patients with periodontitis received two different treatment modalities: minimally invasive non-surgical therapy only (MINST group) or minimally invasive non-surgical therapy and subgingival application of collagen hydrogels with proanthocyanidins (MINST+PACNs group). Clinical periodontal parameters (PPD, CAL, BOP, PI) were evaluated before treatment and after 8 weeks. Concentrations of immunological markers MMP-3 and TIMP-1 in saliva were investigated.
Ethical permission was issued by the Regional Biomedical Research Ethics Committee (No. BE-2-38). All included patients must have signed an informed consent form, were willing and able to show up for follow-up appointments and agreed to coded data collection. Patients were given enough time to analyze protocol of the study and were free to exit the study at any time without a specific reason. The study was performed according to CONSORT guidelines for randomized controlled clinical trials. Patients with periodontitis (stage III-IV) were included in the study. The inclusion criteria in treatment groups were systemically healthy patients with stage III and IV periodontitis with slow or moderate rate of progression (A/B) (radiographic bone loss extending to middle or apical third of the root, tooth loss due to periodontitis, maximum probing depth≥6mm, horizontal and vertical (≥3mm) bone loss). All patients were allocated by the Examiner 1 to two groups: the first group received minimally invasive non-surgical therapy only (MINST group), the second group- minimally invasive non-surgical therapy and subgingival application of collagen hydrogels with PACNs (MINST+PACNs group). The same Examiner 1 performed the coding and randomization of the participants in the treatment groups with a computer-generated randomization table. Clinical trial protocol included several appointments. At the baseline all patients received periodontal examination by periodontist (Examiner 2), the collection of saliva samples was performed. Both groups received full-mouth minimally invasive non-surgical therapy procedure by single periodontist (Examiner 2). During the MINST procedure the periodontist (Examiner 2) was not informed about the patient 's assignment to the group (MINST or MINST+PACNs). After the procedure patient 's allocation to the group was revealed to periodontist by Examiner 1 and accordingly the patient received adjunctive treatment (in MINST+PACNs group received collagen hydrogel chips with proanthocyanidins) or ended the procedure without adjunctive therapy (MINST group). Postoperative care instructions were given (no flossing or use of chemical control materials). After the procedure patients returned for the next appointment (8 weeks after baseline). Periodontal reevaluation of encoded patients was performed by a single periodontist (Examiner 2). Saliva sample were collected in the same manner as mentioned before. The relationship of clinical periodontal parameters and MMP-3 and TIMP-1 levels were analyzed to assess the efficacy of proanthocyanidins in periodontal therapy. The statistical analysis was performed with IBM SPSS 28 (Armonk, NY: IBM Corp.) statistic software package. Shapiro-Wilk test was performed to assess if clinical periodontal measures (per-patient PPD, CAL, BOP and PI) and biochemical measures (MMP-3 and TIMP-1 concentrations in saliva) followed a normal distribution. Accordingly, if the data followed a normal distribution, paired-samples t-test was done to obtain before and after treatment comparisons within the groups. If the assumption of normality was violated, related samples Wilcoxon signed ranks test was done to obtain before and after treatment comparisons within the groups. The between group comparisons of measures were determined by either independent samples t-test in case the specific measure followed a normal distribution or Mann-Whitney test in case the specific measure followed a non-normal distribution. The statistical significance level was considered at the 0.05 level. ;
