Oral fluid-based biomarkers of alveolar bone loss in periodontitis.
Periodontal disease is a bacteria-induced chronic inflammatory disease affecting the soft and hard supporting structures encompassing the teeth. When left untreated, the ultimate outcome is alveolar bone loss and exfoliation of the involved teeth. Traditional periodontal diagnostic methods include assessment of clinical parameters and radiographs. Though efficient, these conventional techniques...
متن کاملThe effects of local and systemic Atorvastatin on inflammation and alveolar bone loss in experimental periodontitis in rats
Objectives The frst cause of tooth loss in developed countries is periodontitis and mostly occurs in people over 40 years old.Atorvastatin is a statin drug class, which has a revolutionary impact on the treatment of high cholesterol and also stimulates bone morphogenic protein which has osteogenic potential. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of local and systemic Atorvastatin in...
متن کاملBiomarkers of periodontitis in oral fluids.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), the key enzymes responsible for matrix degradation, are derived from polymorphonuclear leukocytes during the early stages of periodontitis. The present study determined the levels of GCF matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and salivary MMP-8 in patients with gingivitis and periodontitis and in healthy controls. Levels of crevicula...
متن کاملHistological Comparison of Effectiveness of Low Doses of Doxycyclineand Atorvastatin on gingival Inflammation and Alveolar Bone Loss in Experimental Model of Periodontitis in Rats
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of low dose doxycycline and atorvastatin on gingival inflammation and alveolar bone loss in an experimental model of periodontitis in rats. Methods: Forty male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into four study groups as follows: (I) experimental periodontitis control, (II) rats with periodontitis treated with low dose atorvastatin...
متن کاملComparison of the Effects of Local Injection and Oral Intake of Diclofenac and Atorvastatin in Alveolar Bone Density Assessed with CT in Experimental Periodontitis in Rat
Objectives The first cause of tooth loss in developed countries is periodontitis. Chronic periodontitis is the most common form of periodontitis and it is characterized by loss of periodontal attachment, destruction of alveolar bone and eventual loss of teeth. Atorvastatin is a statin drug used for the treatment of high cholesterol. Statins can stop the inflammatory proc...
