Women with PCOS and periodontitis had a significantly higher GBI (2.71 ± 0.53) compared to controls (2.25 ± 0.41,...
PCOS could potentially worsen gingival inflammation among women already suffering from periodontitis, and a higher BMI might further intensify this correlation....
Developing a Precision Periodontal Health Care Chart (PPHCC) in the electronic dental record (EDR) system and evaluating its clinical usability and effects on clinical outcomes....
A survey with ten questions based on the System Usability Scale (SUS) and six questions about assessing clinical impact was used to evaluate the satisfaction of periodontitis patients and care provide...
The mean scores of SUS questions at the initial periodontal examination were 74.26 ± 18.89 (n = 37) for patients and 88.31 ± 14.14 (n = 37) for care providers. The mean scores of SUS questions at re-e...
Both patients and care providers were satisfied with using PPHCC in the clinic. However, the short-term clinical outcomes in the PC group were similar to those in the control group....
PPHCC, as a tool for delivering clinical and educational information, can motivate patients to control periodontitis and assist clinicians in making a personalized treatment plan....
Periodontitis, a prevalent inflammatory disease affecting tooth-supporting structures, leads to significant oral health and systemic complications if untreated. While traditional smoking is a well-kno...
A literature search was conducted across PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science from their inception up to June 15 2024. Eligible studies included those assessing the impact of e-cigarette use on periodon...
Twelve studies were included in the meta-analysis. E-cigarette users showed a significantly lower mean BOP score compared to non-users (pooled mean difference: -14.233; 95% CI: -20.424 to -8.043; I² =...
Present studies have not identified a significant link between e-cigarette use and adverse effects on periodontal health, but the available research is limited. Further longitudinal research is necess...
This study aimed to investigate and analyse the clinical efficacy and safety of periocline-assisted periodontal foundation in the therapy of chronic periodontitis....
From May 2018 to January 2021, 108 patients with chronic periodontitis were treated at our institution and randomly assigned equally to either the control or the experimental group. The plaque index (...
The levels of PLI, SBI, PD, and AI in the two groups were significantly lower in both groups at 1 and 3 months posttreatment compared to baseline; the levels of PLI and SBI were higher, and the levels...
Periodontal fundamental therapy with perioclines may be a potential treatment for persistent periodontitis. It improves the primary clinical indicators, increases dysbacteriosis control, and has a str...
Omega-3 supplementation as an adjunct to nonsurgical periodontal treatment has been reported to have a positive effect on healing in periodontitis patients. However, there is a lack of information on ...
This study included a total of 80 periodontitis patients, 40 non-smokers and 40 smokers who were systemically healthy. In this study, patients were divided into 4 groups as follows: Group 1 (Subgingiv...
Significant improvement of all clinical parameters at 1 and 3 months was observed in all groups. Whole mouth CAL, GI and BOP% were significantly reduced in group 4 compared to group 2 at 1 and 3 month...
Omega-3 supplementation given as an adjunct to nonsurgical periodontal treatment provided significant benefit in the improvement of clinical parameters (especially for CAL and PD) in the short term in...
Nonsurgical periodontal treatment with omega-3 supplementation resulted in significant improvements in clinical parameters in smokers and non-smokers with periodontitis....
This study aimed to explore the effect of nonsurgical periodontal treatment on Galectin-1 and -3 GCF levels in gingivitis and periodontitis stage III compared to periodontally healthy individuals, to ...
Forty-five systemically healthy participants were included and equally subdivided into three groups: gingivitis, periodontitis (stage III), and a periodontally healthy control group. The clinical para...
The study showed statistical significance between different groups regarding Galectin-3 with higher values in periodontitis and the lowest values in healthy control. Also, Galectin-1 was significantly...
Both Galectin-1 and Galectin-3 seem to have outstanding diagnostic accuracy for the identification of periodontal disease, an acceptable ability to measure periodontal disease activity and the severit...
GOV REGISTRATION NUMBER: (NCT06038812)....
This paper reviews why doctors rarely refer their diabetic patients for a dental opinion and suggests strategies to teach them the importance of controlling periodontal disease as part of a system of ...
Minimally invasive procedures were introduced in periodontics, which could enhance clinical outcomes and reduce post-operative discomfort. However, minimally invasive non-surgical periodontal therapy ...
Laser biostimulation therapy (LBT) is suggested to have positive effects on periodontal healing. This study evaluated LBT with nonsurgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) in diabetes mellitus (DM) and syst...
Thirty periodontitis patients (15 with DM and 15 with SH) were included in the study, which had a split-mouth design, by applying LBT in the mouth of the same systemic condition. Thus, 4 study groups ...
Clinical parameters had improved in all of the groups on day 72 (p < 0.01). PPD and CAL improved more in the DM group with NSPT and LBT group than in the DM group with NSPT without LBT on day 37 (p < ...
These results revealed the short-term impacts of LBT on periodontal healing, which return to ineffectiveness with repeated irradiation. Therefore, it may be speculated that LBT via the protocol herein...
