NCT06075680

Brief Summary

The present study aimed to assess the effect of non-surgical periodontal treatment on serum and salivary IL-1beta, IL-18, NLRP3, ASC and Caspase-1 levels in gingivitis and Stage III Grade C periodontitis. 15 periodontally healthy, 15 gingivitis and 15 Stage III Grade C periodontitis patients were enrolled. At baseline, serum and saliva samples were collected and the whole mouth clinical periodontal parameters were recorded. Periodontitis and gingivitis patients received non-surgical periodontal treatment. Clinical parameters were re-measured and samples were re-collected at 1 and 3 months after treatment. Serum and salivary protein levels were analyzed by ELISA. Data were analyzed using appropriate statistical tests.

Study Arms (3)

Healthy

NO INTERVENTION

Periodontally healthy patients received no intervention.

Gingivitis

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Gingivitis group received Non-Surgical Periodontal Treatment. They received Scaling and Root Planning procedure with ultrasonic scalers and hand curettes. The entire non-surgical periodontal treatment of gingivitis groups was completed in a total of 2 sessions in a week.

Procedure: Non-Surgical Periodontal Treatment

Stage III Grade C Periodontitis

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Stage III Grade C group received Non-Surgical Periodontal Treatment. They received Scaling and Root Planning procedure with ultrasonic scalers and hand curettes. The patients were subjected to quadrant-wise full-mouth subgingival scaling and root planning under local anesthesia. The entire non-surgical periodontal treatment of periodontitis groups was completed in a total of 4 sessions in two weeks.

Procedure: Non-Surgical Periodontal Treatment

Interventions

The primary goal of nonsurgical periodontal therapy is to control microbial periodontal infection by removing bacterial biofilm, calculus, and toxins from periodontally involved root surfaces. Performing a thorough periodontal debridement under local anesthesia will stop disease progression and result in improvement in the clinical signs and symptoms of active disease
