Filter by:Antibiotic resistance is a global health threats that require attention from all healthcare providers. In Periodontology, antibiotic is prescribed in many clinical situations. The aim of this study is to assess the followings among Periodontists (1) The knowledge, attitude, and practices (KAP) towards antibiotics and antibiotic resistance; (2) The prescribing practices of antibiotics in periodontal therapy; (3) The correlation between personal perception of antibiotics uses and the professional prescription patterns; and (4) The differences in antibiotics prescription in relation to the years of experience and the academic background.
The study aims to comparatively assess clinical parameters, biochemical and microbiological parameters after treatment of periodontitis using subgingival mechanotherapy traditional and subgingival mechanotherapy using a perioscope.
The aim of the present study is to compare the efficacy of LANAP to conventional scaling and root planing in the management of stage II periodontitis.
Introduction: The aim of this study comparing the post operative pain after the retreatment of asymptomatic and symptomatic teeth that during single visit treatment with rotary and reciprocal nickel titanium files. Methods: One hundred and forty one patients scheduled for non-surgical endodontic retreatment were included for evaluation. Eighty five patients who needed endodontic retreatment were assingned to 2 groups according to semptomatic or asemptomatic teeth and 4 subgroups with rotary and resiprocal files. Endodontic filling material was removed with One Flare and MicroMega REMOVER files in the retreatment kit. Patients then recorded their postoperative pain on a VAS scale at 24h, 48h, 72h, 7 days and 14 days post-treatment. Results were analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk, Mann-Whitney U, Kruskal-Wallis, Dunn-Bonferroni and Pearson Chi-square tests.
The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between healing response after non-surgical periodontal treatment and baseline gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) levels of bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1ß).
Periodontitis is a chronic condition associated with the inflammatory destruction of the periodontal tissues ultimately leading to tooth loss. Clinically, it is identified by key features such as clinical attachment loss (CAL), bleeding upon probing (BOP), and an increase in probing pocket depth (PPD), and/or gingival recession. Periodontitis is mediated by polymicrobial dysbiosis with keystone pathogens affecting the virulence of the entire biofilm community. The removal of this biofilm and its retention factors is the ultimate goal of clinical treatment and oral measures applied. The elimination of the biofilm has traditionally been achieved with the use of either hand instruments or power driven devices. Promoting periodontal health or diminishing bacterial presence and calculus buildup on teeth can be accomplished with the same efficacy whether using manual scalers and curettes or ultrasonic scaling instruments. Both hand and ultrasonic instruments are characterized by being time-consuming and requiring technical skill, often causing patient discomfort and post-treatment pain, including hypersensitivity resulting from the loss of hard tissue when scaling the tooth surface. Ultrasonic instruments tend to leave a rougher surface behind compared to hand instruments. While effective the current techniques all have their disadvantages. The aim of this study is to evaluate changes in probing depth clinically, Bleeding on probing, Clinical attachment level, Plaque index, Calculus index, Patient pain/discomfort, Patient satisfaction, Cost effectiveness, Treatment time and Number of pockets closed after using AIRFLOW® Prophylaxis Master device with erythritol powder.
The goal of this observational is to analyze the relationship between levels of interleukin-18 (IL-18), interleukin (IL-1β), Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-10 (IL-10), transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain -like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3), apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (ASC), caspase-1, Sirtuin 1 (SIRT-1), Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) small nucleolar RNA host gene 5 (SNHG5), and maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3) in saliva, serum, and peripheral mononuclear blood cell (PMBC)in patients with periodontitis and smokers, to examine the changes in these biomarkers after non surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT), and to evaluate potential confounders that may mediate this relationship. The main questions it aims to answer are: question 1: Is there a relationship between the biomarkers mentioned above and periodontitis and smoking? question 2:How do the above-mentioned biomarkers change after NSPT in smokers and non-smokers?
The goal of this Clinical trial is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of using entire papilla preservation technique with and without autogenous bone and injectable platelet rich fibrin in treatment of isolated Intrabony defects in patients with stage III periodontitis.
The goal of the following clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of a product based on chlorhexidine 0.12% and CITROX and the same product without CITROX in the healing phenomena that occur after non-surgical periodontal therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is the response to periodontal therapy better if mouthwash containing Citrox is used? - What is the patients' perception? Participants, divided into 2 groups, are asked to use either one or the other mouthwash for 14 days after non-surgical periodontal therapy.
This study evaluates postoperative pain and radiographic healing of asymptomatic posterior teeth with chronic apical periodontitis following root-canal treatment performed using EndoActivator for irrigation activation.
