Filter by:Periodontal regenerative therapy has focused on various non-surgical and surgical treatment methods. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) has shown to possess multiple uses, including properties that promote healing of both soft and hard tissues. In the present study, we hypothesized that the addition of PRF into periodontal pockets, as an adjunct to conventional scaling and root planing (SRP), would enhance the outcomes of non-surgical periodontal therapy. This split-mouth randomized controlled clinical trial included 26 periodontal pocket sites in 13 patients with periodontitis. The pockets were randomly assigned as either test or control sites. In the test group, PRF was placed as an adjunct to SRP, while the control group received SRP alone. Probing pocket depths (PPD), clinical attachment levels (CAL), gingival recession (GR), plaque index (PI), and gingivitis index (GI) were measured at baseline and at six weeks. The wound healing index was measured during the six-week follow-up period.
A double-blind randomized-controlled clinical trial is conducted in order to evaluate the impact of non-surgical periodontal treatment on endothelial dysfunction parameters in subjects with periodontitis and without any cardiovascular disease.
Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease that destroys tooth-supporting structures through oral bacterial plaque. ozone gel's act as an antimicrobial effect as an adjunct to conventional periodontal therapy (scaling and root planning). exposure of bacteria to ozone leads to the oxidation of the phospholipids and lipoproteins that comprise the bacterial cell membrane. Ozone gel has the potential to play an anti-inflammatory role in the treatment of periodontitis by monitoring both clinical and biological parameters.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare the results in subjects with periodontitis using subjects own blood - Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) combined with bone graft material, namely, Demineralized Freeze - Dried Bone Allograft (DFDBA) or DFDBA alone in the treatment of bone defects around the teeth.
The sudy was aiming to assess and compare GCF levels of IL-39 & IL-35 in gingival crevicular fluid and to correlate the relationship between different patient groups before and after non-surgical therapy.
Background and aim: Hyperinflammatory host response associated with diabetes mellitus significantly provokes periodontal tissue destruction. In this context, supporting the standard treatment of periodontitis in diabetics with host modulation agents is a current field of study. This clinical study aims to investigate the clinical efficacy of melatonin supplementation in non-surgical periodontal treatment in patients with Type 2 DM and periodontitis and its biological basis (clinical effectiveness) based on some basic markers. Material and method: In this randomized controlled and double-blind study, 27 of 55 patients with diabetic periodontitis underwent full mouth scaling and root planning (fmSRP) alone and 28 of them were administered melatonin (6 mg daily, for 30 days) in addition to fmSRP. The possible therapeutic contribution of melatonin was evaluated clinically and biochemically [gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) RANKL, OPG and MMP-8 and serum IL-1β levels] at 3 and 6 months.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of Propolis mouthwash with 0.2% Chlorhexidine mouthwash as an adjunct to mechanical therapy in improving the status of periodontal disease in peri-menopausal women. The main question it aims to answer are: - Will propolis mouthwash be equal to Chlorhexidine mouthwash in improving the periodontal status of perimenopausal women? - Can neopterin be used as an indicator of periodontal disease. Participants will be asked questions about their general health, menstrual health and oral health then scaling will be done. After that participants will give saliva sample by spitting in a given container. Participants will be divided into 2 groups for treatment and each group comprised of 51 participants. Group 1: 20% Propolis mouthwash, twice a day for 6 weeks. Group 2: 0.2% chlorhexidine mouthwash, twice a day for 6 weeks.
Studies were found that a significant relationship between the severe periodontitis and increased CAVI values. While the exact mechanisms linking periodontitis, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease are not yet fully understood, it is clear that these diseases are interconnected. There are limited data in the literature evaluating the risk of atherosclerosis in diabetic individuals with periodontal disease. In our survey, we hypothesised that severe periodontitis may be a risk factor for the development of subclinical atherosclerosis among people with type 2 diabetes. Thus, we aimed to investigate the potential risk of subclinical atherosclerosis by using a new surrogate marker CAVI in severe periodontitis patients with short-term diabetes.
Aim: Apical periodontitis(AP) caused by root canal infection is the most frequent pathological lesion in the jaws. Bacterial products, host immune cells and biologically active factors called locally produced cytokines(such as IL-1, TNF-α) have been reported to play an important role in the pathogenesis of AP. Metalloproteinases(MMP), is a measurable biomarker that plays an important role in the degradation and regeneration of collagen and is an indicator of collagen. This study aimed to determine the main bacterial species in the microbiota as Gr(+) and Gr(-) and to compare the relationship between MMP-9 and TNF-α with controlled patient groups. Methodology:60 patients with AP and extraction indication were included in the study. 30 systemically and orally healthy volunteers were selected as the control group. After access cavity preparation, an initial microbiologic sample(S1) was taken from the root canal. After atraumatic extraction of the tooth, second microbial sample(S2) was taken from the external root surface. After bacterial DNA extraction, 16S rRNA gene primer was designed for sequence analysis. Bacterial community profiling was made by Sanger sequencing of the PCR products. Besides, blood samples were collected from all of the patients. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure levels of MMP-9 and TNF-α.
In light of the controversy that are already approved but that however still exists regarding the efficacy and influence the management of Periodontitis, the aim of this study was to evaluates, at 12-months follow-up, the post-treatment clinical and serum parameters in patients with periodontitis, treated by either Quadrant- Scaling and Root Planing (Q-SRP) treatment versus conventional Minimally invasive non-surgical therapy (MINST) treatment on serum C-reactive protein (CRP) and on Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2. Patients were also recalled for supportive periodontal treatment. The main objective was to analyze the effects of MINST or Q-SRP on clinical parameters and serum CRP and Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 changes and if high CRP parameters at baseline influenced non surgical periodontal treatment.
