Introduction: A multifactorial condition characterised by an increase in size is called gingival enlargement. Most common form drug induced Different treatment options to manage overgrowth are categorised as non-surgical approach and surgical approach. Non-surgical mechanical periodontal gold standard of therapy first recommended control infections. Objective: To determine clinical effect scali...

By the current paper, lift force that is an important characteristic of a planing hull is calculated. To accomplish this task, Morabito’s mathematical model that has been previously derived for prediction of total pressure distribution on planing hulls is utilized. These equations are not restricted to any specific mean wetted length and can be used for planing hulls with large value of mean we...

AIM To compare the effect of experimental local-drug delivery system containing 2% whole turmeric (gel form) as an adjunct to scaling and root planing (SRP) with the effect achieved using SRP alone by assessing their respective effects on plaque, gingival inflammation, bleeding on probing pocket depth, relative attachment levels and trypsin-like enzyme activity of "red complex" microorganisms, ...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to describe in vivo effects of scaling and root planing associated with 980-nm diode laser irradiation on periodontally diseased root surfaces. BACKGROUND DATA Rapid advances in the development of laser technologies used in dental offices demand careful evaluation of the respective histopathologic effects of each new system. There have been no reports of sc...

objectives: scaling and root planing (srp) is one of the most commonly used procedures during periodontal treatment. the aim of this study was to evaluate the root surface roughness after srp with erbium: yttrium aluminum garnet (er:yag) laser compared to ultrasonic and hand instruments.   materials and methods: in this experimental study, 56 extracted sound single-rooted teeth with moderate le...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of subgingival application of Carisolv gel as an adjunctive therapy to scaling and root planing (SRP) on calculus removal compared to conventional instrumentation. Forty-five teeth requiring extraction due to severe periodontal disease were randomized to the following treatments: 1) SRP alone; 2) placebo gel + SRP; 3) Carisolv gel + SR...

AIMS The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of improved periodontal health on glycemic control in type 2 diabetes mellitus (type 2 DM) patients who have generalized periodontitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 45 type 2 DM patients with generalized periodontitis were selected for the study. The selected patients were randomly assigned to three groups (groups A, B, and C) co...

The problems of re-configuration and re-planing in multi-agent systems exploring acquaintance models of their behavior are discussed throughout this paper. Both the autonomous and supervised methods of replaning are distinguished. The advantages of the tri-base acquaintance models used in the ProPlanT production planning system for solving the reconfiguration and re-planing tasks are sketched.

We conducted a metaanalysis of randomized controlled trials to determine whether periodontal disease treatment with scaling and/or root planing during pregnancy may reduce preterm birth (PTB) or low birthweight (LBW) infant incidence. Treatment resulted in significantly lower PTB (odds ratio [OR], 0.55; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.35-0.86; P = .008) and borderline significantly lower LBW (O...

OBJECTIVE To examine whether treatment of periodontal disease with scaling and root planing during pregnancy is associated with a reduction in the preterm birth rate. DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials. DATA SOURCES Cochrane Central Trials Registry, ISI Web of Science, Medline, and reference lists of relevant studies to July 2010; hand searches in key...
