NCT03652558

Brief Summary

This randomized, placebo controlled, split-mouth clinical study trial evaluates the effects of Ozone therapy on clinical and biochemical parameters. Total of 20 participants completed the study . Periodontal parameters were evaluated at baseline and 3 months following periodontal therapy. All participants were treated non-surgically. Topical gaseous ozone was applied into periodontal pockets. Gingival crevicular fluid pentraxin-3 (PTX-3), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (Hs-CRP) were evaluated.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Periodontal disease parameters change

    Probing depth (mm) were evaluated by periodontal probe.

    Examinations were performed at baseline and 3 months after periodontal therapy. Changes is determined with baseline values - 3 months after periodontal treatment.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Gingival crevicular inflammatory parameter change

    inflammatory biochemical parameters were analyzed at baseline and 3 months after periodontal therapy and changes is determined with baseline values - 3 months after periodontal therapy.

Study Arms (2)

ozone group

EXPERIMENTAL

topical gaseous ozone was applied into periodontal pockets during active periodontal therapy

Device: Ozone application with the Ozonytron XL device

non-ozone group

NO INTERVENTION

Only active periodontal therapy was performed

Interventions

An ozone generator (Ozonytron; Bionix, Munchen, Germany) with an KPX probe (CA Probe; Ozonytron, Bionix, Munchen, Germany) was used for OT. Topical gaseous ozone was applied into the periodontal pocket twice a week for 2 weeks based on the manufacturer's instructions. Ozone applications were at 75% power for 30 seconds (75 µg/ml). Ozone applications were performed by an experienced investigator. Ozone applications in the control side were simulated without starting the ozone generator
