Active clinical trials for "Periodontal Diseases"

This randomized, controlled split-mouth study will include 24-40 patients. After GTR, a test and a control side will be selected by means of a computer-generated randomization list. Test sides will receive a periodontal dressing (Coepak") for 14 days and the control sides will receive no periodontal dressing. After 14 days the periodontal dressing will be removed and the pain experience will be recorded. After 6-9 months, the clinical periodontal parameters will be recorded.

Abstract Aim: to compare the serum vitamin D, HbA1c and vitamin B12 levels in patients with gingivitis and four different periodontitis stages diagnosed according to the 2017 Periodontal Disease Classification. Materials and methods: A total of 606 (378 Female, 228 Male) patients were included in the study. The periodontal status of the patients was diagnosed with gingivitis, stage 1,2,3 and 4 periodontitis groups were formed. HbA1c, vitamin D and vitamin B12 values of the patients were compared and analyzed. Result: Conclusion:

Due to some deficiencies in the classification defined by Armitage in 1999, a new periodontal classification was published in 2018. New periodontitis A staging and grading system was used for classification. Staging depends largely on the severity of the disease, while grading is based on the rate of disease progression to the past. It provides additional information on a risk-based analysis and assessment of risk.The aim of this study is to reveal the differences between the old periodontal classification and the new periodontal disease classification published in 2018. Periodontitis in the literature review. The two classifications were compared in patients. However, a study on gingival recession not done. Anamnesis, routine periodontal indices, routine radiographs of 300 patients, first of all According to the 1999 Periodontal Disease Classification, after it will be classified according to the New Periodontal Disease Classification developed in 2018. Thus, two different Periodontal Disease Classifications, old and new, comparison will be made.

The goal of this observational study is to investigate the association of stage-grade of periodontitis with sleep quality and fatigue and the effect of periodontitis on QoL (Quality of life) in individuals with periodontitis and gingivally healthy individuals. The main questions it aims to answer are: Have poor sleep quality, inadequate sleep and fatigue got an effect on periodontal status? Has periodontal status got an effect on sleep quality and fatigue? What is the effect of periodontal status on quality of life? Routine clinical and radiographic periodontal examinations of the participants were performed. Groups were designed according to periodontal status and periodontitis-stages of participants. Group 1- Healthy; Group 2- Stage I periodontitis; Group 3- Stage II periodontitis; Group 4- Stage III periodontitis; Group 5- Stage IV periodontitis. The participants were only asked to fill out the questionnaires (socio-demographic survey, tooth cleaning habit survey, The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI), The Jenkins Sleep Scale(JSS), Multidimensional Assessment of Fatigue scale (MAF) and Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14)) included in the study and were informed about them. Then, if necessary, the participants' routine periodontal treatments were performed. In line with the findings of the study; 1. Sleep quality was found higher in gingival healthy individuals. 3. The severity of periodontitis increases, the sleep duration becomes shorter, 4. It has been observed that the sleep quality in terms of gender is lower in female individuals compared to male individuals.

To assess the impact of Fill Mouth Scaling and Root planing or Quadrant Scaling and Root planing gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) levels of miRNA 7a-5p, miRNA 21-3p, miRNA 21-5p, miRNA 100-5p, miRNA 125-5p, miRNA 200b-3p and miRNA 200b-5p and their correlation with periodontitis extent.

The prevalence of cardiovascular disease is rising; new methods must be created to assess the cardiovascular status of patients. If cardiovascular disease can be predicted, it may facilitate prevention. An association between periodontal disease and cardiovascular has been established, but a definitive mechanism is not understood. A good first step in finding that mechanism is to look at the correlation between periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease, both of which have an inflammatory component. This study observes the level of cardiovascular disease in patients and correlates it with the presence and degree of periodontal pathogens.

The aim of this study was to investigate the levels of RANKL and Osteoprotegerin, and their relationship in gingival crevicular fluid of post-menopausal women with osteoporosis/osteopenia and chronic periodontitis simultaneously and evaluate the effect that the use of bisphosphonates in periodontal disease. Study hypothesis: "The osteoporosis / osteopenia in postmenopausal women patients with periodontal disease affect the ratio RANKL / OPG in gingival crevicular fluid samples favoring osteoclastogenesis processes "

The primary aim of the current study was to determine the association between halitosis detection (presence or absence) and periodontal status in non-smoking subjects, and also assess whether halitosis recordings were related to periodontal clinical parameters, tongue coating and quantities of two putative periodontal pathogens on the posterior region of the tongue determined by real-time PCR. Secondary, halitosis recordings were compared among subjects with chronic periodontitis, chronic generalized gingivitis and periodontal health.

The goal of this study is to facilitate early diagnosis of gum disease. Proteins associated with cell death will be isolated from gum pockets of diseased and healthy patients and evaluated.

This study is one component of a program to improve the maintenance of good dental health and the prevention of disease by use of risk stratification methods to efficiently guide increased preventive services to adult dental patients who are at increased risk for the major dental diseases, caries and adult periodontitis. The investigators will use a retrospective cohort model to analyze a large dental claims database to determine if the frequency of preventive services influenced the periodontal disease outcomes and to determine if periodontal risk assessment information can be used to stratify dental patients into "high risk" and "low risk" categories that influence the effect of preventive services on periodontitis outcomes. Primary Objective To evaluate whether dental patients who are classified as "low risk" for periodontal disease progression, based on history of periodontitis (claims history), smoking, diabetes, and IL-1 genetic variations, have different primary and secondary endpoints if they had two dental cleanings per year compared to one cleaning per year. Secondary Objectives To evaluate whether dental patients who are classified as "high risk" for periodontal disease progression, based on a history of periodontitis, smoking, diabetes, and IL-1 genetic variations, have different primary and secondary endpoints if they had two dental cleanings per year compared to one cleaning per year. To evaluate whether dental patients who have had one dental cleaning per year have different primary and secondary endpoints if they are classified as "low risk" for periodontal disease compared to patients who are classified as "high risk." To evaluate whether dental patients who have had two dental cleaning per year have different primary and secondary endpoints if they are classified as "low risk" for periodontal disease compared to patients who are classified as "high risk."
