Active clinical trials for "Chronic Periodontitis"

Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory process accompanied by destruction of Periodontium, and sometimes loss of teeth. Periodontal disease is highly prevalent especially in developing and underdeveloped countries affecting more than 80% population. Epidemiological studies have shown that about 10% of the adult population suffer from severe periodontitis (Brown et al. 1990, Gjermo 1998). Studies indicate that the periodontal lesion is not strictly a localized process but may lead to systemic alterations in immune system. Various studies confirm the microbial etiology of periodontal disease.

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of subgingival delivery of Rosuvastatin gel as an adjunct to scaling and root planing in Smokers With Chronic Periodontitis (CP) patients.

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.

The present study is designed as a single-centre, randomized, controlled clinical trial to evaluate and compare the clinical efficacy of two local drug delivery systems containing 1% ALN gel and 1.2% ATV gel in treatment of intrabony defects in patients with chronic periodontitis as an adjunct to SRP.

A study on the effect of locally delivered aloe vera gel as an adjunct to scaling and root planing in the treatment of chronic periodontitis patients with controlled type II diabetes mellitus.The evaluation of Plaque Index, Gingival Index, Probing Pocket Depth, Relative Attachment Level at baseline, 6 weeks and 3 months and Glycosylated heamoglobin at baseline and 3 months.

The present study is designed to evaluate the combined efficacy of Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) and 1% Alendronate (ALN) with open flap debridement (OFD) in treatment of intrabony defects in chronic periodontitis patients.

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

The purpose of this double-masked, randomized, controlled clinical trial was to evaluate the effects of subgingival delivery of boric acid gel as an adjunct to scaling and root planing (SRP) on clinical and radiographic parameters and compare this method with SRP plus placebo gel alone in patients with chronic periodontitis (CP).

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).
