Filter by:The objective of this study is to investigate "clinically" the effectiveness of Boswellia based intracanal medication compared to the commonly used intracanal medicaments (calcium hydroxide Ca(OH)2 and Ledermix) on the levels of bacteria and inflammatory cytokines in root canals and periradicular tissues of teeth with apical periodontitis.
The present study aimed to evaluate the distribution of NLRP3, AIM2, and IFI16 inflammasome gene polymorphisms in individuals with Stage III Grade B and C periodontitis and periodontally healthy individuals. 80 periodontally healthy, 80 Stage III Grade B and 80 Stage III Grade C periodontitis patients will be enrolled. Blood samples will be collected from each participants and clinical parameteres will be recorded for whole mouth. DNA isolation will be performed from all samples. The SNP regions with the numbers rs4612666, rs75985579, and rs2793845 will be detected from DNA material using Real-Time PCR device genotyping kits. Data will be analyzed using statistical tests.
The purpose of this prospective study is to determine the effect of non-surgical root canal treatment in chronic kidney disease patients and healthy patients with apical periodontitis.
SUMMARY TITLE: "Effect of endodontic treatment on inflammatory markers, disease activity and periapical healing in rheumatoid arthritis patients with apical periodontitis" RATIONALE: Chronic inflammation plays a pivotal role in rheumatoid arthritis as subjects present with elevated serum levels of numerous cytokines such as IL-1, IL-6, 1L-12, IL-17, tumour necrosis factor-alpha, RANK and RANK Ligand. Periodontal and pulpal inflammation are two major low grade chronic inflammatory diseases of the oral cavity. Apical periodontitis extends from the chronic inflammatory process that originated in the dental pulp to surround the apex of the tooth. Thus Rheumatoid arthritis and apical periodontitis converge upon common pathway of inflammation. The scientific literature has also shown to provide potential link between endodontic infection and rheumatoid arthritis. The evidence of increased prevalence of apical periodontitis in subjects of rheumatoid arthritis is provided mainly by cross-sectional and case control studies. Interventional studies have been performed in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis and periodontal disease, with results depicting beneficial effect of periodontal therapy in patients of rheumatoid arthritis. To best of our knowledge no interventional study has been performed to assess the healing pattern of apical periodontitis in subjects of rheumatoid arthritis and subsequently effect of endodontic intervention on inflammatory profile and disease burden in the same.
Three types of papilla incision in periodontal reconstruction techniques will be compared.
The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate photodynamic therapy and photobiomodulation in the periodontitis treatment. To evaluate the clinical and microbiological response of conventional periodontal treatment associated with photodynamic therapy and photobiomodulation with red or infrared laser. Participants will receive periodontal treatment carried out with the use 0.005% methylene blue and laser therapy (photodynamic therapy), associated with conventional periodontal treatment, as well as the use of photobiomodulation with red or infrared laser associated with conventional periodontal treatment in participants with periodontitis. So, twenty periodontitis patients will be selected and separated in two groups compared with placebo. Clinical and microbiological parameters will be evaluated at baseline and 3 months after periodontal treatment: plaque Index, bleeding on probe, probing depth, gingival recession and clinical attachment level.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if adjuvant antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) can help in the treatment in patients with pieces with apical periodontitis and the presence of fistula, in terms of reducing symptoms, resolution of fistula and the clinical signs of inflammation at the oral mucose, as well as, evaluation radiographic parameters. Participants will undergo conventional endodontic treatment at Group I (n=15) and will undergo conventional endodontic treatment combined with antimicrobial photodynamic therapy at Group II(n=15).
The present study compares the effectiveness of two mouthwash formulations (0.2% CHX and 0.05% CHX+0.05%CPC) in reducing gingival inflammation and microbial colonization in individuals with gingivitis and in preventing periodontitis recurrence. The main focus is on assessing the clinical impact of the mouthwashes over six months, with a secondary goal of evaluating their effect on systemic blood pressure.
Aim of the current study is to evaluate radiographic and clinical alterations following topical application of CWP gel and CWP nanoparticles gel in stage II grade B periodontitis patients.
A double-blind randomized-controlled clinical trial is conducted in order to evaluate the impact of non-surgical periodontal treatment by means of minimally invasive approach MINST or Q-SI (quadrantwise) approach in subjects with periodontitis on miRNome in gingival crevicular fluid
