Probiotics in periodontal therapy
… species of probiotic bacteria can improve periodontal health in humans through a variety of mechanisms. Some of these processes include manipulation of the host immune system as well as competition and suppression of the development, biofilm formation, and virulence expression of …

Microsurgical techniques in regenerative periodontal therapy
… surgery should be considered a true reality in periodontal regenerative surgery. Several clinical trials have shown their efficacy and predictability in the treatment of intrabony defects. In 1992 microsurgery was introduced to the field of periodontics. The main fields of application in …

Effect of non-surgical periodontal therapy on the anaemic status of patients with periodontitis: A systematic review
… between periodontitis and systemic diseases. The periodontal disease phenotype is characterised by an exaggerated, ineffective, and persistent inflammation of the connective tissues that supports the teeth, which ultimately results in tissue destruction and CAL (Meyle and Chapple, 2015). The main …

Proteomic Investigation of Salivary Biomarkers in Periodontal Diseases
… the study was to investigate novel biomarkers of periodontal disease present in GCF and saliva. -- Methods: The identities of specific putative biomarkers identified by SELDI-TOF MS were confirmed using 1-D PAGE coupled with LC-MS/MS. These biomarkers were then tested using ELISA in the samples …

SERUM ANTI-PHOSPHORYLCHOLINE AND ANTI-CARDIOLIPIN CONCENTRATIONS FOLLOWING PERIODONTAL SCALING AND ROOT PLANING
… that there is a link between immune responses to periodontal bacteria and atherosclerosis. The aim of this investigation was to determine whether periodontal bacteria are capable of inducing serum antibodies potentially involved in cardiovascular diseases; specifically, IgG anti-PC, IgG anti-CL, …

A pilot study evaluating the effect of collagen sponges on healing and pain following tooth extraction
… matrices to aid in the regeneration of periodontal tissue during periodontal therapy; other uses of these materials include clot stabilization, wound protection, and patient comfort. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of absorbable collagen matrices on …

The impact of powered toothbrushing on patients with Diabetes
<p>Purpose: Studies have shown that periodontal therapy can help manage diabetes and that powered toothbrushes promote better home care. However, there is no literature making the connection whether powered toothbrushes could assist in blood glucose management in diabetic patients. The primary aim …

The role of local and peripheral antioxidants in the pathogenesis of chronic Periodontitis in smokers
… of antioxidant defences against ROS within the periodontal pockets. Cigarette smoke is also reported to increase the oxidative burden and deplete antioxidant defences, but no data are available on gingival crevicular (GCF) antioxidant levels in smokers compared to non-smokers. This thesis …

Cannabinoid Receptor 2 (CB2) Ligands Downregulate Pro-Inflammatory Markers in Stimulated Primary Human Periodontal Ligament Fibroblasts (hPDLFs)
… its recreational usage and is a risk factor for periodontal disease, which is seen as a concern in society for its negative health consequences. However, many medical conditions can benefit from the pharmacological effects of cannabinoids. Plethora of evidence is available for the use of …

The Effects of Topically Applied Citric Acid on Periodontally Diseased Root Surfaces
<p>The goal of reconstructive periodontal therapy is new connective tissue attachment to periodontally diseased root surfaces. Recently Register (1973) and Register and Burdick (1975) have reported accelerated reattachment and cementogenesis when citric acid was applied to surgically created root …

New Attachment of Connective Tissues to Human Teeth Involved in Chronic Periodontal Disease : A Histologic Study
… of the periodontium destroyed by periodontal disease may be considered an ultimate goal of reconstructive periodontal therapy. To date, there has been no concrete evidence demonstrating this phenomenon in humans. Garrett (1978) has shown that citric acid, after application to root …

Vergleichende klinische Studie zur Auslösung einer Bakteriämie : ultraschallbetriebenes Debridement versus subgingivales Scaling
An einem Patientenkollektiv von 19 Personen (10 Männer und 9 Frauen, 34-75 J.) wurde das Auftreten einer Bakteriämie nach Parodontalbehandlung mit dem Ultraschall getriebenen Vector®-System verglichen mit der konventionellen Therapie mit Gracey-Küretten. Bei jedem Patienten erfolgte nach Anamnese- …

Proteomic comparison of Amoxicillin resistant and susceptible periodontal Provotella Intermedia and Provotella Nigrescens clinical isolation with Matrix-Assisted Laser Disportion Ionization Time-Of-/flight mass spectrometry
… cultivable proportions, systemic and/or local periodontal chemotherapy is often employed to reduce their subgingival numbers to levels compatible with periodontal health. However, many clinical isolates of P. intermedia and P. nigrescens may exhibit resistance to β-lactam antibiotics prescribed …

Biochemical and immunological studies of periodontal disease in humans with emphasis on the analyses of breakdown products emanating from the gingival crevice
Active periodontal disease is characterized by marked destruction of collagen in periodontally-involved tissues. Biochemical characterization of the disease is complicated as it is an episodic disorder that is believed to cycle through periods of high activity and quiescence. The first part of the …

Eine Nachuntersuchung von parodontal behandelten Recallpatienten in einer privatzahnärztlichen Praxis
Ziel der Untersuchung war zu prüfen, ob eine parodontale Langzeitstabilität durch geschlossene Parodontaltherapie mit Ultraschall und regelmäßige unterstützende Nachsorge (UPT) in einer zahnärztlichen Praxis erzielt werden kann. Patienten mit der Diagnose chronische Parodontitis, die eine …
