Electroacupuncture as an Adjunct to Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this randomized, single-masked, controlled clinical trial study was to determine if the administration of electro acupuncture improves the outcomes obtained in combination with non-surgical periodontal therapy. Participants will get non-surgical periodontal therap with/without electro acupuncture. Researchers will compare EA and control groups to see if there is any relationship between acupuncture application clinical periodontal parameters,serum and saliva cytokine levels.

Clinical Trial Description

Periodontitis is a prevalent complex chronic inflammatory oral disease that can result in the progressive destruction of tooth supporting tissues and eventual loss of teeth. Although pathogenic bacteria are the triggers and provokers of periodontal inflammation, the main determinant of the destruction is the host immunoinflammatory response. The host response is modified by many genetic and environmental factors as well as various systemic diseases. Electroacupuncture (EA) has effects on both the immune system and inflammatory processes. The effect of acupuncture on the regulation of cytokine production has been mentioned in the literature. . No study has been found in the literature about the effects of EA on the host modulation in periodontitis patients. In this study, the investigators aimed to examine the effect of electroacupuncture application on the host modulation at periodontitis. ;
