Use of Dual-light Photodynamic Therapy as an Adjunct to Periodontal Treatment in Smokers

Periodontitis Clinical Trial

Official title:
Regular Home Use of Dual-light Photodynamic Therapy as an Adjunct to Non-surgical Periodontal Treatment in Smokers

Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this controlled clinical trial is to investigate the impact of regular home use of Lumoral device as an adjunct treatment compared to non-surgical periodontitis treatment (NSPT) alone on biofilm removal and host response in Stage III and Grade C smoking periodontitis patients at 6 months.The main question aims to answer is: • Does regular use of dual-light photodynamic therapy benefit NSPT in Stage III and Grade C smoking periodontitis patients? 30 participants will be asked to use Lumoral device every night before performing oral hygiene for 10 minutes, while the other 30 patients will be asked to perform only oral hygiene. Both of these groups will receive NSPT and will be followed for 6 months from baseline.

Clinical Trial Description

The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of regular home use of Lumoral device® as an adjunct treatment compared to non-surgical periodontal treatment alone on biofilm removal and host response in Stage III and Grade C smoking periodontitis patients at 6 months. Lumoral® is based on a dual-wavelength LED light that activates Lumorinse® (exocellular) and bacteria porphyrins (endocellular), resulting in the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS and heat induce a series of photochemical and biological events that cause irreversible inactivation leading to the death of undesired bacteria. This device is designed for home use. Therefore it is hypothesized that its adjunct use in the treatment of periodontitis could lead to better outcomes compared to traditional periodontal treatment. In order to investigate this impact, clinical and microbiological measurements will be compared between patients who will be treated with conventional non-surgical periodontal treatment and patients who will receive the Lumoral device® as an adjunct to the periodontal treatment. The patients who receive the device will use it every day for four months. Both groups will be followed for 6 months. ;
