NCT03844035

Brief Summary

The present study aimed to investigate clinically the cleaning effectiveness of different treatment modalities, that is, oral irrigator or interdental brush usage addition to routine brushing and examine TGF-β1, IL-1β, t-PA, and PAI-1 levels in periimplant crevicular fluid of patients with periimplant mucositis. The null hypothesis was that oral irrigators would be effective compared to interdental brush in the oral care of individuals who use implant-supported protheses.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Periimplant crevicular fluid level of IL-1β as a marker of gingival inflammation

    Elevated levels of IL-1β in periimplant crevicular fluid have been associated with the destructive changes that occur in the inflamed human gingiva

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Periimplant crevicular fluid level of TGF-β1 as a marker both of inflammatory phase and proliferative phase

    TGF-β1 plays a role in the development and progression of periodontal diseases.

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Periimplant crevicular fluid level of t-PA as a marker for clinical evaluation and efficacy of periodontal treatment

    Higher levels of t-PA in periimplant crevicular fluid have been associated with gingivitis and periodontitis.

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Periimplant crevicular fluid level of PAI-1 as a marker for clinical evaluation and efficacy of periodontal treatment

    Higher levels of PAI-1 may be associated with progression of periodontitis

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

Study Arms (3)

Oral irrigator group

EXPERIMENTAL

Fifteen patients using toothbrush and oral irrigator(oxytet oral irrigatör).All patients were told to use Modified Bass method of tooth brushing technique. PI, GI, PPD and CAL values were measured with William's probe (Hu-Fried, Chicago, IL, A.B.D) around the teeth and with plastic probe around the implants. All clinical parameters were evaluated on each of the six regions of the implant (mesio-buccal, mid-buccal, disto-buccal, mesio-lingual, mid-lingual, disto-lingual).PICF was collected one day after the clinical examination from buccal aspects of the mesial and distal surfaces at the interproximal sites.Following the initial clinical records, all patients were performed full mouth instrumentation and described oral hygiene procedure according to their groups.

Diagnostic Test: Periimplant crevicular fluid (PICF) collection

Interdental brush group

EXPERIMENTAL

Fifteen patients using toothbrush and interdental brush.All patients were told to use Modified Bass method of tooth brushing technique. PI, GI, PPD and CAL values were measured with William's probe (Hu-Fried, Chicago, IL, A.B.D) around the teeth and with plastic probe around the implants. All clinical parameters were evaluated on each of the six regions of the implant (mesio-buccal, mid-buccal, disto-buccal, mesio-lingual, mid-lingual, disto-lingual). PICF was collected one day after the clinical examination from buccal aspects of the mesial and distal surfaces at the interproximal sites. Following the initial clinical records, all patients were performed full mouth instrumentation and described oral hygiene procedure according to their groups.

Control group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Fifteen patients using only toothbrush.All patients were told to use Modified Bass method of tooth brushing technique. PI, GI, PPD and CAL values were measured with William's probe (Hu-Fried, Chicago, IL, A.B.D) around the teeth and with plastic probe around the implants. All clinical parameters were evaluated on each of the six regions of the implant (mesio-buccal, mid-buccal, disto-buccal, mesio-lingual, mid-lingual, disto-lingual). PICF was collected one day after the clinical examination from buccal aspects of the mesial and distal surfaces at the interproximal sites. Following the initial clinical records, all patients were performed full mouth instrumentation and described oral hygiene procedure according to their groups.

Diagnostic Test: Periimplant crevicular fluid (PICF) collection

Interventions

Prior to PICF sampling, supragingival plaque was removed by sterile curets and, after air drying, the surfaces were isolated by cotton rolls. Filter paper strips (periopaper, proflow Inc., Amityville, New York, USA) were placed in sulcus for 30s. Care was taken not to avoid mechanical trauma and strips contaminated with blood or saliva were discarded. The absorbed PICF volume was estimated by a calibrated instrument (periotron 8000, proflow Inc., Amityville, NY, USA). Then, the strips were sealed into sterile tubes before freezing at -80⁰C. The readings were converted to an actual volume (µl) by reference to the standard curve.

Model Details: Forty-five patients with periimplant mucositis having at least one implant (age range:45-60) were included in study. Study was planned as randomized, single-blind, parallel-design. Patients were divided into 3 equal groups; i)toothbrush+oral irrigator ii)toothbrush+interdental brush, iii)only toothbrush. After baseline examinations \[Silness-Löe plaque index(PI), Löe-Silness gingival index(GI), probing pocket depth(PPD), clinical attachment level(CAL), bleeding on probing(BOP)\], initial periodontal therapy was completed using full-mouth disinfection method. Periimplant crevicular fluid(PCF) were taken from patents to assess levels of interleukin-1beta(IL-1β), Transforming growth factor-beta(TGF- β), tissue-type plasminogen activator(t-PA), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1). Clinical records were repeated at 2, 4 and 12 weeks.
