Filter by:The goal of the following clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of a product based on chlorhexidine 0.12% and CITROX and the same product without CITROX in the healing phenomena that occur after non-surgical periodontal therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is the response to periodontal therapy better if mouthwash containing Citrox is used? - What is the patients' perception? Participants, divided into 2 groups, are asked to use either one or the other mouthwash for 14 days after non-surgical periodontal therapy.
Endodontic treatment is done in Patients with chronic pulp exposure in patients with Coronary Artery Disease and systemic inflammatory markers recorded before and and after treatment and compared with patients with Coronary Artery Disease without chronic pulp exposure.
The aim of this study is to evaluate whether the use of a chlorhexidine based oral antiseptic will improve clinical results of non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) in smokers with periodontitis. A randomized controlled clinical trial will be carried out on 60 subjects with periodontitis- 30 smokers and 30 non-smokers. All subjects will be clinically examined. The following periodontal indices will be measured: Full mouth plaque score (FMPS), Full mouth bleeding score (FMBS), Pocket probing depth (PPD), Clinical attachment level (CAL), Gingival recession (GR) and Tooth mobility (TM). All subjects will have NSPT carried out. Half of the subjects in each group will use a 0.12% chlorhexidine based mouth rinse twice a day during 15 days. Clinical examination will be repeated 8 weeks after NSPT and compared.
Background Root canal therapy is the primary treatment of choice for necrotic mature teeth with periapical lesions (PRLs), which does not restore the tooth's vitality. Provided that injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) has shown promising results in regenerative medicine as a novel platelet concentration, the purpose of this study is to ascertain whether i-PRF, as opposed to blood clot (BC), can serve as a biological scaffold, thereby expanding the indications for regenerative endodontic procedures (REPs) in mature teeth. Novelty There is no study available that has evaluated the outcome of REP in the necrotic mature mandibular molars with periapical lesions. Furthermore, the efficacy of novel i-PRF as a scaffold in REPs remains to be explored. Objectives To evaluate and compare the outcome of REPs in comparison to conventional RCT in necrotic mature molars with PRLs and to evaluate the efficacy of i-PRF and BC in REP as a scaffold. Secondary objective is to evaluate pain for first postoperative week and subjective responses to pulp sensibility tests at 12 months follow-up. Method 120 patients presenting with necrotic pulp and periapical lesions will be randomly allotted to one of the three groups - REP using i-PRF or BC or RCT group. Comparative evaluation of outcome of REP and RCT will be performed at 12-months follow-up.
This randomized clinical trial aimed to compare the clinical and microbiological effects of different times of administration of metronidazole (MTZ) and amoxicillin (AMX) in the treatment of periodontitis.
The purpose of this observational study is to identify the dental and periodontal health issues, oral hygiene practices, and potential relationships between them by assessing the variables that may have an impact on them.The main questions its aims to answer are: Is there a relationship between compliance with the Mediterranean diet and periodontal status? Is there a relationship between physical activity and periodontal status?
The present study aimed to assess the effect of non-surgical periodontal treatment on serum and salivary IL-1beta, IL-18, NLRP3, ASC and Caspase-1 levels in gingivitis and Stage III Grade C periodontitis. 15 periodontally healthy, 15 gingivitis and 15 Stage III Grade C periodontitis patients were enrolled. At baseline, serum and saliva samples were collected and the whole mouth clinical periodontal parameters were recorded. Periodontitis and gingivitis patients received non-surgical periodontal treatment. Clinical parameters were re-measured and samples were re-collected at 1 and 3 months after treatment. Serum and salivary protein levels were analyzed by ELISA. Data were analyzed using appropriate statistical tests.
The scientific literature has verified that coconut oil has properties that open perspectives for its application in order to maintain oral health and, in particular, for the treatment of different oral pathologies. Thus, the purpose of this project is summarized in the following objectives: 1. Determine in vitro the biocompatibility of coconut oil. 2. Determine in vivo the clinical effect of coconut oil as an adjunct treatment for periodontal disease.
Periodontitis is a polymicrobial, inflammatory condition affecting tooth-supporting tissues. It is characterized by a progressive loss of epithelial attachment and resorption of alveolar bone, which can lead to tooth loss. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) has been proposed as a reversible process that shifts the cell phenotype from epithelial to mesenchymal-like and may be involved in the process of periodontal inflammation either completely or partially. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a large class of regulatory transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides lacking evident protein-coding potential. Studies have shown that lncRNA dysregulation plays key roles in human diseases, including cancer, by modulating the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). The involvement of lncRNAs markers in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease induced EMT has not been studied thoroughly and have created a gap in the knowledge.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of two different periapical surgery methods ("curettage+apical resection" and "curettage") on the bone regeneration and clinical healing without applying any material or with applying leukocyte and platelet rich fibrin (L-PRF) to the periradicular intraosseous defect in the treatment of the teeth with large periapical lesions by following the patients for 12 months.
