Active clinical trials for "Periodontal Diseases"

The objective of this study was to evaluate whether short-term full mouth disinfection protocol could have a greater reduction in the levels of halitosis and volatile sulfur compound or not, when compared to quadrant-wise scaling and root planing

There is a gap in knowledge regarding the effects of Vitamin D supplementation on periodontal status in pregnant wome. The investigators aim to evaluate the potential benefit, if any of vitamin D supplementation during pregnancy on periodontal disease and relevant outcomes including burden of infections and prematurity rates. the investigators hypothesize that Vitamin D supplementation during pregnancy improves the periodontal health. There is an association between inflammatory biomarkers and periodontal health of pregnant females. Vitamin D supplementation improves the outcomes of pregnancy such as prematurity rates and birth weight

The aim of this investigation is to determine whether a synthetic hydroxyapatite is as effective as an enamel matrix protein for periodontal regeneration in patients who have intra-bony periodontal defects.

The purpose of this study is to determine if treating periodontal infections (gum disease) will reduce markers of systemic inflammation in patients at risk of cardiovascular diseases.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of treatment of periodontal disease during the second trimester of gestation in adverse pregnancy outcomes. Pregnant patients during the 1st and 2nd trimesters at antenatal care in a Public Health Center will be divided into two groups: NIG- 'no intervention' or IG- 'intervention,' according to agreement in receive periodontal treatment during pregnancy. Treatment will be performed by a single periodontist consisting of scaling and root planning (SRP), professional prophylaxis (PROPH) and oral hygiene instruction (OHI). Patients at NIG will receive PROPH and OHI during pregnancy and will be referred for treatment after delivery. Periodontal evaluation will be performed by a single trained examiner, blinded to periodontal treatment, according to probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), plaque index (PI) and sulcular bleeding index (SBI) at baseline and 35 gestational weeks-28 days post-partum. Primary adverse pregnancy outcomes to be addressed are: preterm birth (< 37 weeks), low birth weight (< 2.500 Kg), late abortion (14-24 weeks) or abortion (< 14 weeks). The results obtained will be statistically evaluated according to OR, unpaired t test and paired t test. It is expected that periodontal treatment during the second trimester of gestation will result in decreased rates of adverse pregnancy outcomes.

In light of the controversy that are already approved but that however still exists regarding the efficacy and influence the management of Periodontitis, the aim of this study was to evaluates, at 6-months follow-up, the post-treatment clinical and serum parameters in patients with periodontitis, treated by either Full Mouth Scaling and Root Planing (FM-SRP) treatment versus conventional oral hygiene treatment on serum CRP and Growth differentiation factor-15 levels.

Objectives: This study aimed to determine the effect of concomitant antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPTD) on periodontal disease and glycaemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Clinical Relevance: aPTD is a noninvasive adjunctive therapy that can positively influence the periodontal treatment outcome.

The present study aimed to investigate the effects of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) as an adjunct to non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT) on the plasminogen-activating system in Stage 3-4, Grade C periodontitis patients.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Hypochlorous Acid and Chlorhexidine as postsurgical antimicrobial agents in the treatment of severe chronic periodontal disease. The selected patients will be randomly divided into two groups of 16 each. Subjects in group I will undergo scaling and surgical root planing and will use mouthrinse with 0.05% HOCl for 7 days, after this they will mouthwash with 0.025% HOCl until day 21 and Subjects in group II will undergo scaling and surgical root planing followed by a rinse with CHX 0.2% for 7 days, after this they will mouthwash with 0.12% CHX until day 21. Null Hypothesis: There are no significant differences between hypochlorous acid and chlorhexidine in reducing plaque formation at 7, 21 and 90 days of evaluation. There are no significant differences between HOCl and CHX in the elimination or reduction of periodontopathogenic microorganisms at 7, 21 and 90 days. Alternative hypotheses: There are significant differences between hypochlorous acid and chlorhexidine in reducing plaque formation at 7, 21 and 90 days of evaluation. There are significant differences between HOCl and CHX in the elimination or reduction of periodontopathogenic microorganisms at 7, 21 and 90 days.

Aim: Use an ibuprofen mouthwash 2% irrigate subgingival in improving the progression of periodontal diseases can be evaluated. Materials and Methods: 22 patients with chronic periodontitis without any systemic disease who have had periodontal disease, and 2 molars that have periodontal pockets deeper than 4 mm on either side of the lower jaw have the clinical examinations. Interventions: For patients who participated in this study, subjects who received oral hygiene instruction and scaling root planing (SRP), After 2 weeks, They were divided into two groups as determined by randomization in this study, Experimental group: ibuprofen 2% mouthwash (made from the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Islamic Azad University, Tehran), Control group: placebo, Subgingival Irrigation of ibuprofen 2% mouthwash with an insulin syringe 0.5 ml were rinsed, Clinical measurements including probing depth (PD), clinical attachment levels (CAL), Plaque Index (PI), and Bleeding Index (BI) were recorded and the patients were recalled per once every 2 weeks for 3 months is repetitive, and at the end of 3 months, were evaluated changes in clinical periodontal parameters. ®
