NCT04038801

Brief Summary

This study aimed to compare the effects of full-mouth disinfection (FMD) and full-mouth ultrasonic debridement (FMUD) on clinical, microbiologic and biochemical parameters with conventional quadrant-wise scaling and root planning (Q-SRP) in patients with severe chronic periodontitis. 60 patients with severe chronic periodontitis were randomly allocated to three groups: FMD (n=20), FMUD (n=20) and Q-SRP (n=20). At baseline, gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and subgingival plaque were collected and clinical periodontal parameters were recorded. Ultrasonic debridement was completed within 24 hours in FMD and FMUD groups. Chlorhexidine gluconate was used for FMD. Q-SRP was performed by hand instruments per quadrant at 1-week-intervals. Clinical parameters were recorded and samples were collected at 1, 3, 6 months after treatment. Real-time PCR was used for quantitative analysis of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia, Tannerella forsythia, Fusobacterium nucleatum and total bacteria count. Calprotectin, osteocalcin and cross-linked N-telopeptide of type I collagen (NTx) levels in GCF were analysed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

Study Arms (3)

Quadrant-wise scaling and root planning (Q-SRP)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Quadrant-wise scaling and root planing were performed over four visits at 1-weekly intervals using an assortment of manual periodontal curettes.

Procedure: Quadrant-wise scaling and root planning (Q-SRP)

Full-mouth ultrasonic debridement (FMUD)

EXPERIMENTAL

Subgingival debridement were performed by a piezoceramic ultrasonic inserts in two visits of the same day.

Procedure: Full-mouth ultrasonic debridement (FMUD)

Full-mouth disinfection (FMD)

EXPERIMENTAL

Subgingival debridement were performed by a piezoceramic ultrasonic inserts and an intensive regime of chlorhexidine in two visits of the same day.
