Filter by:In this study, 40 patients with a history of Mild- Periodontitis who were diagnosed with clinical and radiographic findings showed that all of the periodontal parameters before the treatment, during the treatment period Then, scaling & Root planing and oral hygiene instructions were given to the patients, and after 2 weeks, the patients who received the study were randomly divided into two groups (Balanced Block Randomization) with four blocks according to the visit time. To group A, oral chlorohexidine and to B group, the drug Ketorolac was given. 5 mm of the drugs required every 15 days the areas underwent a gingival wash with an insulin syringe, which lasted for 3 months.
Microbiological and Clinical assessment of Er,Cr:YSGG laser in conjunction to open flap debridement (OFD) in treatment of chronic periodontitis through real time PCR assay for quantification of total bacterial load.
The present study aimed to assess the adjunctive use of Hyaluronic acid with scaling & root planing (SRP) in patients with chronic periodontitis & diabetes mellitus type 2.
this study is to evaluate the use of advanced platelet rich fibrin (A-PRF) + nano-crystalline hydroxyapatite bone substitute combined with open flap debridement (OPD) versus open flap debridement alone in the management of mandibular molar grade II defects. In the management of mandibular molar grade II furcation defects, no difference exists in gain of horizontal clinical attachment level between the use of advanced platelet rich fibrin (A-PRF) + with nano-crystalline hydroxyapatite bone substitute combined with open flap debridement (OPD) and open flap debridement (OPD) alone .
Tissue Plasminogen Activator and Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor Type-1 Gene Expression will be evaluated clinically and histopathologically through Hematoxylin and eosin as well as by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction in the gingival tissues of chronic periodontitis in an attempt to investigate whether the expression of these proteins could be involved in the disease pathogenesis or not, and to assess as well if their expression will be affected by the applied surgical periodontal treatment.
To compare the efficacy of a modified minimally-invasive non-surgical periodontal therapy (MINST) approach with a surgical approach (M-MIST) in determining bone and clinical attachment changes in intrabony defects
The study is a split mouth study but the interventions for the two different arms will be spaced by a fixed duration in time. Verbal and written consent will be obtained from the patients fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria after briefing them about the procedure. Following phase-1 periodontal therapy, randomisation for the test and control quadrants will be done. Surgical debridement will be done first for the control side to avoid the carry-across effect of fibrin glue. Control and test procedures will be performed with a wash out period of 15days. Preparation of Autologous fibrin glue : - 10 ml of blood will be withdrawn from healthy adult human donor by venous puncture into sodium citrate vials and will be centrifuged for 30 min at 1200 g to obtain platelet-poor plasma (PPP). - To the solution, fibrinogen and protamine sulphate will be added and will be centrifuged at 1000 g for 5 min to sediment the precipitate and fibrin glue will be procured. Prior to commencement of periodontal flap surgery GCF collection will be done. Following anaesthesia and elevation of full thickness muco periosteal flap, thorough debridement and root planning of the exposed root surfaces will be done. On the control site, the periodontal flap will be approximated using 4-0 black silk suture. Patients will be instructed to rinse twice daily with 0.12% chlorhexidine and recalled after 7 days for suture removal and post-surgical GCF collection from the control side. After a wash out period of 15 days presurgical GCF sampling along with the surgical procedure will be performed on the test side. The periodontal flap will be approximated on the test site using autologous fibrin glue on the under surface of the raised flap up to 2 mm from the coronal margin and repositioned back on to the root surface. Thereafter, the tissues will be kept in position with a gentle pressure using a wet gauze for 30 - 60 seconds. Persistence of bleeding, stability of tissues 5 minutes after repositioning will be recorded and the amount of fibrin sealant used in the procedure will be determined.Patients will be then recalled after 7 days for evaluation and post-surgical GCF collection from the test site. Clinical parameters will be assessed at 7, 14, 21 and 28 days. Collection of GCF : GCF will be collected immediately prior to surgery and on seventh day following surgery from both test and control sites for wound healing assessment. Samples of GCF will be collected from four sites from the surgical site following isolation. Colour - coded, 1-5 microlitre calibrated volumetric micro capillary pipettes will be kept extra-crevicularly for not more than five minutes or until 1 microlitre is collected. The fluid will be immediately transferred to a plastic vial and frozen at -20 degree Celsius for further analysis. Pipettes in sites which do not express any fluid or those contaminated with blood/saliva will be discarded. Statistical analysis: The data gathered from the study will be subjected to appropriate statistical analysis. The statistical analysis will be done using: 1. Mann-Whitney test 2. Wilcoxon signed rank test.
AIM: To evaluate the association of the levels of blood haemoglobin to the distribution and severity of gingival melanin pigmentation at 3 different periodontal health status SAMPLE SIZE ESTIMATION - Done using GPower v.3.1.9.2 - Total sample size = 60 (20 each in 3 groups) - Effect size = 40% - Power = 80% - α-error = 5% SAMPLING: - Simple random sampling - Subjects to be recruited from out patient pool of KLE Society's Institute of Dental Sciences, Bangalore - Subjects to be categorised into 3 groups (20 subjects each) 1. Group A - Healthy periodontium 2. Group B - Gingivitis 3. Group C - Periodontitis PARAMETERS ASSESSED - Blood Haemoglobin Concentration (in %gm/dL) - Hedin Melanin Index Score 0: No pigmentation Score 1: one or two solitary unit(s) of pigmentation in papillary gingiva without formation of a continuous ribbon between solitary units Score 2: More than three units of pigmentation in papillary gingiva without the formation of a continuous ribbons of pigmentation Score 3: One or more short continuous ribbons of pigmentation Score 4: One continuous ribbon including the entire area between canines STATISTICAL ANALYSIS - SPSS for Windows Version 22.0 to be used - Descriptive statistics: It includes expression of study parameters in terms of Mean & SD for continuous variables, whereas in terms of frequency and proportions for categorical variables. - Inferential Statistics: Chi Square Test will be used to compare the pigmentation index between 03 groups. And similarly, gender wise comparison of hemoglobin concentration will be done using the same test. One-way ANOVA test followed by Tukey's HSD post hoc Analysis will be used to compare the mean hemoglobin levels based on the pigmentation index scores in each group. The level of significance [P-Value] was set at P<0.05
Aim of the study is the efficiency assessment of porous Metronidazole loaded matrix based on gelatin/hydroxyethylcellulose blend in treatment of deep periodontal pockets resulting from severe chronic periodontitis. The matrix was invented and produced in Department of Drug Form Technology, Wroclaw Medical University. The porous metronidazole (MTZ) loaded matrix was fabricated by the freeze-drying technique. The morphology, mechanical properties, in vitro degradation, MTZ release from dried sponge were evaluated and also the clinical trials were performed. Patients suffering from chronic periodontitis are examined. To evaluate oral hygiene API (Approximal Plaque Index) and the gum inflammation BOP (Bleeding on Probing) and PBI (Papilla Bleeding Index) indices are used. The clinical examination is performed 3 times. On the first visit the output indicators are defined. The subgingival scaling is performed and Metronidazol on porous matrix is applied to the selected periodontal pockets. 2 control tests of periodontal indices are carried out after one week and one month from the application. In the control group after scaling/root planing procedure, there is no application of metronidazole.
The study will follow a parallel arm, randomised, double blinded, placebo controlled design. There will be two groups Group 1 = receiving 1% curcumin chips after routine scaling and root planing (n=20) Group 2 = receiving placebo chips after routine scaling and root planing (n=20) Clinical parameters: ( Baseline, 4 weeks, 12 weeks) Probing pocket depth, clinical attachment level, gingival index, plaque index Cytokine parameter ( Baseline, 4 weeks) Interleukin 1 beta in GCF Statistical analysis Repeated measures of ANOVA Paired t-tests
