NCT05768243

Brief Summary

the aim of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of hyaluronic acid (HA) used as an adjunctive to scaling and root planing (SRP) and red injectable platelet rich-fibrin (i-PRF) in the non-surgical treatment of stage III periodontitis. The main question it aims to answer is: is there a difference between HA and red i-prf when used as an adjunct to SRP in terms of efficacy? Participants who are eligible will be assigned to one of the treatment groups:

  • Group 1= receives HA+ SRP
  • Group 2= receives red i-prf + SRP
  • Group 3= receives only SRP Researchers will compare Groups 1,2 and 3 to see if there's a difference in the periodontal parameters measured.

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Clinical Attachment Level

    used to assess the loss of periodontal tissue support in periodontitis. It is the distance from the cemento-enamel junction (fixed point on the tooth) to the depth of the pocket

    4 weeks

  • Probing Depth

    used to detect the depth of the periodontal pocket. It is the distance from the gingival margin to the base of the pocket.

    4 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Bleeding on Probing

    4 weeks

  • Plaque index

    4 weeks

  • Gingival index

    4 weeks

Study Arms (3)

Treated with hyaluronic acid + SRP

EXPERIMENTAL

After scaling and root planing, hyaluronic acid (GENGIGEL®) will be applied in the following forms (one ml of 0.8% HA was injected subgingivally once every four weeks), topically (0.2 ml of 0.8% HA applied by the patient twice daily for the following 14 days after the subgingival application).

Drug: Hyaluronic acid

Treated with red i-PRF + SRP

EXPERIMENTAL

The red i-PRF will be injected into the pocket at the point of interdental space after SRP. Moreover, to control bleeding due to the needle tip after the procedure, a saline-soaked sponge will be placed between the lip and the gingiva and removed after 15 minutes. A total of four sessions of i-PRF will be administered to patients at a ten-day interval.

Procedure: red injectable platelet rich fibrin (i-prf)

Scaling and root planing only

NO INTERVENTION

no adjunctive treatment will be done to scaling and root planing

Interventions

hyaluronic acid is used as an adjunctive treatment to scaling and root planing

Also known as: GENGIGEL®
Treated with hyaluronic acid + SRP

injecting red i-prf into the pocket after scaling and root planing

Treated with red i-PRF + SRP
