Summar: The pilot study deals with the clinical results of the regenerative therapeutical method in intraosseous periodontal defects done by surgical augmentation procedure using a material of a new generation prepared on the basis of a bioactive glass. A group of 10 individuals were treated properly for chronic periodontitis. Some of treated infraalveolar periodontal lesions, both periodontal ...

Introduction: The association between diabetes mellitus and periodontal disease has been studied in the last years, and several studies conclude that diabetes mellitus is a risk factor for the development of gingivitis and/or periodontitis in both diabetes type 1 and 2. In this review article we intend to demonstrate the possible association between diabetes mellitus and periodontal disease, as...

BACKGROUND There is growing evidence that periodontal treatment may affect glycemic control in diabetic patients. And several systematic reviews have been conducted to assess the effect of periodontal treatment on diabetes outcomes. Researches of this aspect are widely concerned, and several new controlled trials have been published. The aim of this study was to update the account for recent fi...

AIM The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of non-surgical periodontal treatment on hemoglobinA1c (HbA1c) levels, oxidative stress balance and quality of life (QOL) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) compared to no periodontal treatment (simple oral hygiene instructions only). METHODS The design was a 6-month, single-masked, single center, randomized clinical t...

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM The increase in white blood cell count (WBC) and platelet count due to systemic inflammation and infection is considered a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. These parameters increase in periodontal disease. A decrease in WBC and platelet counts by periodontal therapy may decrease the risk for cardiovascular disease. PURPOSE OF THE STUDY The present study is a t...

Periodontitis is an inflammatory mechanism causing step by destruction of the periodontal tissues and alveolar bone. Periodontal treatment intended to restore damaged disease. Various procedures have been introduced lower destruction; statins are being one among them. They cholesterol-reducing drugs which shown promote bone formation proven be effective in therapy. However, numerous actions, wi...

Periodontal regeneration represents the ultimate goal of periodontal therapy. The current regenerative techniques have limited success rates especially in advanced periodontal defects. Currently the research is focused on novel cell-based approaches for periodontal regeneration to overcome the limitations of existing treatment. The human clinical trial on stem cells based periodontal regenerati...

The association between diabetes mellitus and chronic periodontal disease has long been established. Most of the researches linking these two very common chronic diseases were based on type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic periodontal disease. However, this study was conducted to investigate the association between type 1 diabetes and chronic periodontal disease in Malaysian subjects. Forty-one ...

Purpose: Traditional approaches to mechanical debridement of the tooth surface to remove tooth accretions continue to be an integral part of periodontal therapy. The purpose of the present study was to test the effectiveness of mechanical non-surgical therapy in subjects with moderate to severe gingivitis and periodontitis. Methods: Ten subjects of moderate to severe gingivitis/periodontits wer...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW Periodontal diseases are inflammatory conditions that were once thought to have manifestations localized to the oral cavity alone, and were therefore considered the concern of only dentists and other oral health professionals. Emerging evidence has changed this view and now suggests that periodontal diseases may play a role in numerous conditions that impact systemic well bein...
