Filter by:The study evaluated the number of sessions of periodontal supportive treatment in patients with gingivitis in order to evaluate the risk of periodontitis development.
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.
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 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.
Following the randomization procedure, children will be divided into 2 groups (25 immature anterior permanent incisors in each group): Group I will be treated with MTA as apical plug while group II will be treated with Premixed Bioceramic Putty as apical plug. After working length determination, instrumentation, and irrigation of the root canals, apical plug will be done. in MTA Group, MTA will be placed into the apical 4 mm of root canals, then a moist cotton pellet will be placed and the access cavity will be restored with glass-ionomer-based restoration. Next day, glass-ionomer-based restoration and the cotton pellet will be removed, then the coronal restoration will be completed with GIC, composite. In the Premixed Bioceramic Putty group, Well-Root™ PT will be placed into the apical 4 mm of the canals. After 12 min, the coronal and middle third of the root canal will be filled with gutta-percha. The coronal restoration will be completed with GIC, composite. children will be recalled for clinical and radiographical follow-up after 6 and12 months after treatment.
Periodontitis is highly prevalent and rarely detected and treated in the earlier stages of the disease. Orthopantomography (OPG) is the most frequently taken dental radiograph around the world, and its systematic screening may contribute to early detection of periodontitis and access to the needed level of care. The investigators' recent study initially developed an AI-clinical knowledge-based system for automatic periodontitis diagnosis and indicated good performance for differentiating stage II-IV periodontitis. This cross-sectional diagnostic study aims to compare the diagnostic accuracy of this AI-clinical knowledge-based hybrid system (Index test) with human experts (reference test) for differentiating stage II-IV periodontitis using the OPG images obtained from different 4 centers around the world.
The goal of this clinical trial is to Investigate the clinical and microbiological efficacies of Laser disinfection and ICG-mediated aPDT as adjunct to RSD for patients with periodontitis. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the use of laser disinfection or ICG-mediated aPDT as adjunct to RSD are effective in improving clinical parameters and reducing the load of periodontal pathogens. Participants will undergo full-mouth supragingival debridement by using ultrasonic device at baseline. All patients will be instructed to brush their teeth twice daily and will be supplied with the same type of tooth paste and toothbrush, with suitable interdental aids. All the patients will be instructed to attend again after 7 days. One week later, sites randomly allocated to control (Ctrl) group and test groups which will receive, in addition to RSD, either aPDT or periodontal pocket disinfection (Biolase). For all groups, sites with initial PPD 4-6 mm will be treated with RSD using area specific (Graecy) curettes.
The aim of the study is to identify adolescent patients that are at risk of developing oral diseases, and to assess if targeted preventive oral treatment with antibacterial dual-light therapy as an adjunctive treatment method can have a positive impact in preventing oral diseases from emerging.
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the tooth supporting structures induced by a dysbiosis in the oral and subgingival microenvironment of susceptible patients. The long-term swallowing of high doses of periodontal pathogenic microorganisms could induce a dysbiosis of the intestinal microbiota, favouring the establishment of an 'inflamed' microbiome in terms of composition and/or function. The present project is aimed at a better understanding of the etiopathogenetic correlation between periodontitis and intestinal dysbiosis, and aims to explore the hypothesis that periodontal treatment may influence the multi-omics profile on the oral-gut-systemic axis. 70 patients affected by stage III-IV periodontitis will be recruited, and treated by means of full-mouth scaling and root planing. Salivary, subgingival plaque, plasma and stool samples, together with a complete periodontal charting and a food diary will be collected and compared at baseline and after treatment. Age, gender and BMI-matched healthy individuals will be recruited as controls.
