The results of contemporary studies suggest an association between inflammatory periodontal disease and pregnancy and delivery complications. The aim of this study was to assess the association between periodontal disease, clinical periodontal parameters and pregnancy or delivery complications in type 1 diabetes mellitus and non-diabetic pregnant women.
Periodontitis is a widely prevalent disease worldwide that has serious public health consequences. Its prognosis includes tooth loss and edentulism, a condition that negatively affects chewing causing functional disability; and esthetics causing social impairment. Consequently, periodontitis may end up causing marked impairment of the quality of life of the affected patients, impairment of general health and increasing the dental care costs significantly. Dysbiotic changes in the oral microbiome arise after some microbial species are enriched by primary products resulting from tissue breakdown due to gingivitis. It then triggers the host cells to produce proteinases that mediate loss of marginal periodontal ligaments, apical migration of the junctional epithelium and apical spread of bacterial biofilm. However, the dysbiotic changes may be more likely to occur in some patients rather than others due to certain risk factors including smoking and immuneinflammatory responses. Thus, the severity of periodontal disease in these patients would be higher. Tobacco smoking is no longer considered to be a habit, but a dependence to nicotine and a chronic relapsing medical disorder. Among its detrimental effects on general health, tobacco smoking increases the risk of periodontitis by 2 to 5 folds. This takes place by increasing the dysbiotic changes in the oral microbiome and so, increasing the severity and extent of the periodontal disease at a younger age. Therefore, smoking has been considered as a modifying factor of periodontitis that should be considered upon periodontitis case grading definition. Therefore, this research aims to identify the difference in dysbiosis between the three categories of periodontitis, trying to understand the cause of the resistance of each category to treatment compared to the milder category.
The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of treating periodontal disease with the STERIFY GEL medical device in combination with SRP procedure, in terms of periodontal pocket healing. Efficacy will be compared with the use of the nonsurgical SRP technique alone, which is considered a gold standard treatment for periodontitis, with the aim of observing improved results when using the STERIFY GEL device. The study is prospective, split-mouth.STERIFY GEL will be administered into the periodontal pockets of one or two segments of patients undergoing whole-mouth extended SRP, with the contralateral segments serving as controls (split-mouth), in a single session.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Hypochlorous Acid and Chlorhexidine as postsurgical antimicrobial agents in the treatment of severe chronic periodontal disease. The selected patients will be randomly divided into two groups of 16 each. Subjects in group I will undergo scaling and surgical root planing and will use mouthrinse with 0.05% HOCl for 7 days, after this they will mouthwash with 0.025% HOCl until day 21 and Subjects in group II will undergo scaling and surgical root planing followed by a rinse with CHX 0.2% for 7 days, after this they will mouthwash with 0.12% CHX until day 21. Null Hypothesis: There are no significant differences between hypochlorous acid and chlorhexidine in reducing plaque formation at 7, 21 and 90 days of evaluation. There are no significant differences between HOCl and CHX in the elimination or reduction of periodontopathogenic microorganisms at 7, 21 and 90 days. Alternative hypotheses: There are significant differences between hypochlorous acid and chlorhexidine in reducing plaque formation at 7, 21 and 90 days of evaluation. There are significant differences between HOCl and CHX in the elimination or reduction of periodontopathogenic microorganisms at 7, 21 and 90 days.
This study aims to investigate salivary proteome changes in periodontitis patients before and after non-surgical treatment. Ten systemically healthy and non-smoker individuals with stage III, grade C periodontitis underwent non-surgical periodontal treatment. Saliva was collected at baseline, and one and six months post-treatment. Whole-mouth plaque and gingival index, probing depth, bleeding on probing and clinical attachment loss were measured. The saliva proteome was investigated by label-free quantitative proteomics. Normalized protein intensities were measured and protein changes were modeled over time with significant protein regulation considered at false discovery rate (FDR)<0.05.
All 16 chronic periodontitis (CP) subjects were clinically examined regarding the following clinical periodontal parameters: plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), bleeding index (BI), Pocket Probing Depth (PPD) and Relative Attachment Loss (RAL) which were recorded for all patients at baseline and 3 months after surgical periodontal treatment. Pre- surgical procedure: After the clinical parameters were recorded, Phase I therapy (full mouth scaling, root planning and oral hygiene instructions) was carried out. The patients were then put under observation to assess the oral hygiene practice and the response of the gingival tissue to Phase I therapy. After two weeks, patients were recalled and based on further treatment protocol, periodontal flap surgery was planned. Group A (Test Group) underwent periodontal flap surgery during which placental extract was applied. Group B (Control Group) underwent periodontal flap surgery alone. Surgical procedure The operative sites were anaesthetized with 2% lignocaine hydrochloride with adrenaline (1:180000). Crevicular incisions were made using Bard Parker No.15 blade on the facial and lingual/palatal surface of each tooth segment or area involved. A full thickness mucoperiosteal flap was reflected using periosteal elevator taking care to preserve the maximum amount of tissue in the flap. After exposure the granulation tissue was removed, the root surfaces were planed and the flap was trimmed of tissue tags to facilitate healing. The flap was approximated using interrupted sutures (mersilk 3-0) and a periodontal dressing was placed above it. Local delivery of the placental extract In group A patients (test group) after open flap debridement 1ml of human placental extracts gel (Placentrex - the original research product of Albert David Limited, India, a drug obtained from fresh term healthy human placentae) was dispensed in a dappen dish. Gelatin foam (Abgel, Sri Gopal Krishna Labs, Pvt.Ltd. India) was cut into small beads of 1 sq.mm and allowed to soak in the placental gel for a few seconds. These gelatin beads soaked in gel are placed into the surgical site locally with the help of a graft carrier and condensed into the defect area. To prevent uncontrolled spill-over effects of the gel, mild pressure was applied over the flap with the wet gauze and excess gel was removed and Coe Pak was placed. While in group B(control group), after open flap debridement, this step is omitted. Post-operative care Antibiotics and analgesics are prescribed two times a day for five days. Patients were instructed to refrain from chewing hard or sticky foods, brushing near the treated areas or using any interdental aids for 1 week. The use of mouthwash was avoided during the observation period. All patients were placed on a strict maintenance schedule following surgery. The sutures were removed 10 days later. Recall appointments were scheduled once in 10 days for the 1st month. At every recall appointment, oral hygiene was checked. At 3rd month, the clinical parameters were recorded in both the groups. The difference between pre and post-operative values was assessed and then statistically analysed
The goal of this observational study is to test periodontitis classification ability of ChatCPT. The main questions it aims to answer are: question 1: Could ChatCPT classify periodontitis? question 2: Is there a better result if ChatCPT is trained for perodontitis classification?
The goal of this observational study is to compare saliva sTREM-1, sTREM-2, Presepsin levels and sTREM-1/sTREM-2 ratio of participants with/without periodontitis. The main question it aims to answer is there a relationship between saliva sTREM-1, sTREM-2, Presepsin levels, sTREM-1/sTREM-2 ratio and periodontitis. Participants will give saliva samples without any intervention
