Filter by:Saccharomyces boulardii is commonly employed as a live non-pathogenic probiotic microbial feed or food supplement. S. boulardii reduces the secretion of key pro inflammatory cytokines and promotes the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-10, which is pertinent in the context of pathogenic mechanisms in periodontitis.
The present study is designed to evaluate the combined efficacy of Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) and 1.2% Rosuvastatin (RSV) with open flap debridement (OFD) in treatment of intrabony defects in chronic periodontitis patients
Periodontitis is an inflammatory/infectious disease of high prevalence in the population and which has been linked to several chronic inflammatory systemic diseases. However, few studies have evaluated the periodontal disease in the absence of other inflammatory conditions stimulate inflammatory markers as C-reactive protein (CRP), Interleukin - 6 (IL-6) hepcidin and hemoglobin. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of nonsurgical periodontal therapy on the change of inflammatory markers and anemia in control subjects and patients with chronic periodontitis after three months.This interventional study included 67 individuals of both sexes, aged 30-65 years, without other diseases, except chronic periodontitis, with at least 20 teeth, selected from a total 125 individuals following the eligibility criteria. Periodontal clinical parameters (probing depth, bleeding on probing, clinical attachment level) and systemic, hematological as well as inflammatory markers CRP, IL-6 and hepcidin were compared before and after nonsurgical periodontal therapy by serum and plasma examination of control individuals and patients with chronic periodontitis.
Siloss® (Azurebio, Madrid, Spain) is a synthetic and inorganic bone graft material and is composed of a dicalcium phosphate anhydrous (monetite), hydroxyapatite (HA), and amorphous silica and trace amounts of zinc. It is manufactured by a proprietary process avoiding high temperatures. This results in a non-sintered material with a high specific surface area (65 m2/g) and high interconnected porosity (60%) that favour a high degree of interaction with its biological surrounding. It is fully resorbable, being replaced by natural bone, thereby avoiding the disadvantages of nonresorbable materials that interfere with normal processes of bone remodelling. Siloss® is resorbed both by a dual process of slow dissolution of its components and by active cellular remodelling. Controlled dissolution of Siloss® releases Ca, P, Si and Zn that stimulate regeneration processes while larger pores are formed allowing colonization of osteoclasts and osteoblasts involved in bone remodelling. It functions as a bioactive temporary scaffold maintaining the desired volume while it promotes bone regeneration and is being replaced by new vascularized bone. The alloplastic property of the graft material avoids the risk of infection and adverse inflammatory reactions. Also, resorption of Siloss® prevents possible adverse effects associated with long permanence of low resorbable materials. The aim of the present study is to clinically and radiographically evaluate the efficacy of bone graft material (Siloss ®) in the treatment of intrabony defects.
Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory process accompanied by destruction of Periodontium, and sometimes loss of teeth. Periodontal disease is highly prevalent especially in developing and underdeveloped countries affecting more than 80% population. Epidemiological studies have shown that about 10% of the adult population suffer from severe periodontitis (Brown et al. 1990, Gjermo 1998). Studies indicate that the periodontal lesion is not strictly a localized process but may lead to systemic alterations in immune system. Various studies confirm the microbial etiology of periodontal disease.
ABSTRACT:- Introduction: Chronic periodontitis (CP), the commonest type of periodontal disease, it is an infectious disease resulting in inflammation within of the tissues supporting the teeth, progressive loss of attachment and bone loss. It is closely related to several systemic diseases, such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. The link between periodontal disease and chronic kidney disease (CKD) may be due to infection and inflammation. The periodontal inflammatory state may increases the chronic inflammation present in CKD, thus decreasing renal function. Periodontal therapy may reduce inflammation and improves endothelial function. Aim:- To investigate the effect of mechanical non-surgical periodontal therapy on serum renal function markers in systematically healthy CP subjects. Objectives:- To evaluate the effect of scaling and root planing (SRP) on serum renal function markers such as urea, creatinine, bilurubin in systematically healthy CP patient and to compare the clinical parameters such as Gingival index (GI), Plaque index (PI), Probing depth (PD), Bleeding on probing (BOP), Clinical attachment level (CAL) between test group (TG) & control group (CG). Materials and Methods: - 51 CP patients; age ranging between 35-60 years was selected. Categorized equally into group I and groups II. Group I was test group (TG) included 25 patients and group II was control group (CG) included 26 patients. The serum levels of renal function markers included Urea, Creatinine, Bilurubin were measured. SRP was done in test group only. All the parameters were checked at baseline and one month after SRP. Comparisons of baseline and value after 1 month among each criterion among each group unpaired-t test and comparisons of two groups for each criterion by paired-t test.
Interleukin-32 (IL-32) is a recently described cytokine that is a strong inducer of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α. A previous report have reported that Porphyromonas gingivalis-derived LPS significantly up-regulated IL-32 expression compared with the unstimulated cells in monocytes (THP-1 cells). They suggested that IL-32 may contribute to the pathogenesis of periodontal disease. In the present study the investigators hypothesized that IL-32 levels may increase in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and saliva of patients with chronic periodontitis compared with healthy controls and these levels may decrease together with treatment.
The aim of this study was to compare the success after endodontic treatment performed with or without continuous ultrasonic irrigation. 70 Mandibular molars with diagnosis of pulpal necrosis and with periapical radiolucency were randomly assigned into two treatment groups- continuous ultrasonic irrigation (CUI) and syringe irrigation (SI). Standard nonsurgical endodontic treatment was performed on both groups under rubber dam isolation with 0.02 taper ISO stainless steel hand files using step back technique. In both groups, 5 ml of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite was used as irrigant after each instrument. After root canal instrumentation, canals were irrigated with 5 ml of 17% EDTA solution for 1 minute. In SI group, canals were flushed with 15ml of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite using a 27 gauge needle while final irrigant was delivered using a continuous ultrasonic irrigation device in CUI group. An inter-appointment dressing of calcium hydroxide was given and patient was recalled after one week and canals were obturated with the Gutta Percha. Immediate postoperative radiograph was then taken, followed by radiographs at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months.
The purpose of this interventional study was to investigate the impact of control of systemic inflammation by scaling and root planing (SRP) on bone mineral density (BMD) in osteopenic post-menopausal women with Chronic periodontitis(CP). Out of 68 osteopenic postmenopausal women with CP, 34 participants each were included in test and control group. BMD, hsCRP and periodontal parameters were recorded at baseline and 6 months.
Periodontal Diseases are considered the sixth complication of Diabetes Mellitus (DM). This close relationship between both diseases is characterized by mutual influence. The presence of DM might impair prognosis of diverse dental treatments due to its inflammatory nature, negative influence on wound healing, on bone biology, and the establishment of infections. Consequently, knowledge of new dental therapies and the biology of dental treatments for chronic periodontitis in diabetic patients can enhance quality of life and make these treatments more adequate for this common profile of patients.
