Filter by:A randomized controlled triple blinded study to evaluate the effectiveness of Salvadora Persic (SP) as an adjunct to Scaling and Root Planing (SRP) in chronic periodontitis by comparing the basic parameters of periodontitis, radiographs and bacterial levels with a controlled group (SRP only).
Statins are specific competitive inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, known for its hypolipidemic actions, possessing biologically significant anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, exerts anabolic effects on bone through expression of BMP - 2, have paved way in periodontal regeneration. The present study aims to evaluate and compare the efficacy of subgingivally delivered 1.2% Atorvastatin (ATV) and 1.2% Simvastatin (SMV) gel local drug delivery and redelivery systems as an adjunct to scaling and root planning (SRP) in chronic periodontitis (CP) subjects with diabetes mellitus(DM).
A total of 40 periapical lesions from the 33 patient undergoing apical surgery were randomly selected from December 2016-November 2017. Patients were informed about the surgical procedure and signed a consent form. Groups were divided in to 4; as control, MTA (mineral trioxide aggregate), PRF (platelet rich fibrin) and MTA+PRF groups. Apical resection was performed in all groups. No other interventions were made to the control group. Routine radiographs were taken in the 1st. 3th and 6th months. In the (approximately) 12th month of the procedures computerized tomography scans were taken. Primary healing of the periapical tissues were evaluated and the outcomes were measured. Patients have still been under control for the long term outcomes of the study.
This investigation aims to assess the clinical and radiographic outcomes of intrabony defects treated with minimally-invasive non-surgical therapy.
The aim of this multicenter randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the clinical, microbiological and immunological effects of probiotics as an adjunct to Scaling and Root Planing alone or in combination with Metronidazole and Amoxicillin in the treatment of periodontitis.
The aim of the study was to compare the clinical effects of systemic use of doxycycline to amoxicillin plus metronidazole as adjunctive treatment in nonsurgical debridement of aggressive periodontitis (AgP). Twenty four patients with aggressive periodontitis were enrolled in this clinical study. They all received oral hygiene instruction and full-mouth nonsurgical debridement using manual instruments. The test group received as adjunctive antibiotic treatment 200 mg of doxycycline the first day followed by 100 mg per day during 14 days. The control group received 500 of amoxicillin and 250 of metronidazole, three times a day for 7 days.
The quantification of CD163 will be analysed in the subgingival plaque samples of generalized chronic periodontitis patients with and without diabetes mellitus. The demographic and the periodontal parameters were assessed and the correlated with the quantification of the CD163. The CD163 gene expression was analyzed with RT-PCR and the quantification of CD163 will be done using ELISA.
The present study will be conducted on fifty participants. All participants will receive a full-mouth clinical examination, and the following periodontal parameters will be recorded: Plaque Index (PI). Gingival Index (GI), probing depth (PD), and clinical attachment level (CAL). All of these measurements will be recorded at six sites at baseline for all participants and 3 months after non-surgical periodontal therapy for the study group. GCF samples will be collected from the buccal aspects of teeth that had the highest signs of inflammation and attachment loss for periodontitis group at baseline and 3 months after non-surgical periodontal therapy. As for controls, the samples will be collected from buccal aspect of upper first molar at baseline. The samples will be assayed for prolactin by using an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay kits (Elisa) according to the manufacturer instruction.
The expression and quantification of Micro-RNA 146-a, was analyzed in the subgingival plaque samples of generalized chronic periodontitis patients with and without coronary heart disease. The demographic variables and periodontal parameters were assessed and correlated with expression of micro-RNA 146-a. The quantification of levels of micro-RNA 146-a was done using Real time Polymerase chain reaction. ( RT-PCR)
a randomized controlled single-blinded study. the hypothesis of this clinical trial is that disjunctive use of diode laser improve the clinical parameters of periodontists , and there are significant difference between the conventional treatment and diode laser as an adjunct
