Brief Summary
to evaluate Efficacy of Locally Applied Nano-Curcumin and Nano-Hyaluronic Acid as an Adjunct to Scaling and Root Planing in the Treatment of Periodontitis patients Materials and methods: forty patients (n=40) were selected from the Department of Oral Medicine and Periodontology, Faculty of Dentistry, Mansoura University, The participants forty patients are classified into four groups:
- Group1 : (-ve control group): SRP alone
- Group2: (+ve control group): SRP+ chitosan Nano-particles
- Group3: SRP + Curcumin-coated chitosan Nano-particles
- Group4: SRP+ hyaluronic acid -coated chitosan Nano-particle All Patients will undergo Phase I therapy, which includes scaling and root planing using ultrasonic tips and gracey curettes. Additionally, mechanical oral hygiene instructions will be provided, and participants will be advised to refrain from using any mouthwash throughout the duration of the study. Furthermore, patients within groups 2 to 4 will be subjected to an extra measure involving the application of the respective gel associated with their designated group. The gel will be administered on a weekly basis for duration of five weeks. Clinical indices (plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), clinical attachment level (CAL), and probing depth (PD)). Laboratory assessment will be done at baseline and final assessment( after 3 months) . tess will be for antioxdiant levels and TNF alpha
- Total anti-oxidant capacity(T-AOC) using Assay kit50T
- TNF alpha using ELISA Kit (96T)

Study Arms (4)
group 1 (-ve control group) SRP alone
ACTIVE COMPARATORare treated with scaling and root planning alone
group 2 ( +ve control group) SRP + chitosan nano-particles LDD
ACTIVE COMPARATORpatients are treated with SRP in addition to chitosan nano-particles as an adjunct local drug delivery.
group 3 ( experimental group 1) SRP + curcumin loaded on chitosan nano-particles
EXPERIMENTALpatients are treated with SRP in addition to curcumin loaded on chitosan nano-particles as an adjunct local drug delivery.
group 4 ( experimental group 2) SRP + hyaluronic acid loaded on chitosan nano-particles
EXPERIMENTALpatients are treated with SRP in addition to hyaluronic-acid loaded on chitosan nano-particles as an adjunct local drug delivery.
Interventions
the formulation of curcumin and incorprating it with chitosan nano-particles will increase the absorption rate in the gingival sulcus
the formulation of hyaluronic acid and incorprating it with chitosan nano-particles will increase the absorption rate in the gingival sulcus
