Active clinical trials for "Chronic Periodontitis"

Chronic periodontitis is an infectious disease resulting in inflammation of the teeth support structures, progressive periodontal attachment loss and bone loss. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (TFDA) in multiple applications as an adjunct to surgical periodontal therapy in patients with generalized severe chronic periodontitis. A total of twenty patients will be submitted to this split-mouth trial, receiving initial periodontal basic nonsurgical treatment that is scaling and root planing. After the sites are indicated for surgical therapy, they receive surgical access therapy associated with scaling and root planing and TfdA using the treatment protocol during periods of 0, 7, 14 and 30 postoperative days, or only surgical access therapy associated with scaling and root planing. As protocol, TfdA will be used laser light source 660nm wavelength in combination with phenothiazine, a photosensitizer with 10 seconds of exposure per site during surgery and 60 seconds in other applications. All patients will be oral hygiene care and follow-up for 90 days. In the baseline period, basic post-therapy, 30 and 90 days after surgical therapy will be performed the clinical evaluation of plaque index, depth of probing pocket, level of clinical insertion relative and bleeding on probing, beyond the collection plate samples subgingival 40 for counting microbial species using the method of DNA-DNA hybridization checkerboard. For the same periods are also collected samples of gingival crevicular fluid for evaluating fluid volume (Periotron) and the levels of Interleukin 1 beta, Interleukin 10, MMP-8, tumor necrosis factor alpha, RANK-L and Osteoprotegerin (OPG). The data are statistically analyzed with the tests to the sample.

This study was carried out in the Department of Periodontology and source of patient was be from the outpatient section of Tatyasaheb Kore Dental College & Research Centre, New Pargaon. Study included the 31 patients with chronic periodontitis, with age group between 35-60 years, two interdental suprabony pockets with 5-8mm pocket depth in two different quadrants were chosen as the test site (TS) and control sites (CS). In control sites, only SRP was performed followed by placement of placebo distilled water. In test sites, SRP was followed by placement of Lyophilized saccharomyces boulardii in the pocket. S. boulardii will be delivered subgingivally by by mixing 1gm of sachet containing 250mg of lyophilized yeast with 0.5ml of distilled water this prepared paste was injected in the perio pocket with luer lock syringe and cannula .The subgingival plaque samples were collected at baseline, 4th day, 4 week for detection of p. gingivalis for microbiological analysis and clinical parameters wiere recorded at baseline and at 1 month.

It aims to demonstrate the superiority of a 6-week supplementation with Lactibiane Buccodental compared to placebo, as adjunctive therapy in chronic periodontitis in patients with generalized chronic periodontitis

Multicenter, prospective, interventional open case series study using a randomized split-mouth design in moderate to severe chronic periodontitis patients having half-mouth treated with the KLOX BioPhotonic OraLum gel with a LED curing lamp as an adjunct to conventional non-surgical periodontal treatment (SRP) versus SRP alone in the second (control) half-mouth.

Hypothesis: metronidazole gel applied topically after periodontal debridement in smokers volunteers could improve clinical parameters when compared to metronidazole tablets + periodontal debridement. Method: 30 smokers with chronic periodontitis were randomly assigned into 3 groups: periodontal debridement combined with 3 g placebo gel; periodontal debridement combined with daily topical application of 3 g metronidazole benzoate gel (15%); and periodontal debridement combined with a daily single dose of 750 mg metronidazole. Clinical parameters evaluated were visible plaque, gingival bleeding, probing pocket depth and relative attachment level.

Periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory disease which results in irreversible attachment loss, bone destruction and tooth loss, is a major oral health problem affecting 90.2% of Malaysian population. It was initially demonstrated that Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) was a risk factor for periodontitis and subsequently a two-way relationship between diabetes and periodontitis was proposed. Diabetes has been shown to cause defects in neutrophil function by overproduction of pro-inflammatory mediators such as Tumour necrosis factor-α, Interleukin-1β and Prostaglandin E2 by macrophages. The inflammatory mediators released in response to plaque have been reported to be insulin antagonists that disturb binding of insulin to its receptors and further complicate hyperglycaemia in T2D. The hyperglycaemia in diabetics promotes more pathogenic bacteria into the subgingival microenvironment making them more susceptible to chronic periodontitis. Studies however differ in the types of periodontal pathogens present in these pockets. At the same time, very few studies have quantified them. This study proposes to investigate the effect that non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) has on the periodontal parameters, HbA1c levels, microbiological profile and CRP levels of T2D patients with chronic periodontitis as compared to oral hygiene education (OHE)alone.

The present clinical trial was designed to investigate the clinical and microbiological effectiveness of systemic ayurvedic immunomodulator Septilin as an adjunct to scaling and root planing (SRP) in the treatment of chronic periodontitis (CP)

Locally delivered Alendronate (ALN) have potent inhibitory effect on bone and increases new bone formation in chronic periodontitis patients Till date no study has reported the effect of local delivery of ALN in chronic periodontitis patients among smokers. Hence the aim of this study is to investigate the clinical and radiographic effects of locally delivered ALN as an adjunct to the non surgical treatment in smoker chronic periodontitis patients.

This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of YH14642 in Korea patients with chronic periodontitis, in order to investigate the recommended therapeutic dose.

Adult periodontitis is a chronic infective disease affecting the periodontium. Periodontitis induce the destruction of attachment apparatus of teeth, resulting in periodontal pocket formation and teeth loss. This study will test the safety and efficacy of alveolous bone reproduction by the transplantation of mixture named periodontium injectable gel for the adult periodontitis patients. Injectable gel is the mixture of ex-vivo cultured mesenchymal stem stem cells, ex-vivo cultured osteoblast-like cells differentiated from mesenchymal stem cells and scaffold (include, platelet rich plasma, human thrombin and calcium chloride).
