Relevance: to indentify if periodontal treatment which is presented by photoactivated disinfection (PAD) adjunctively to scaling and root planing (SRP) yield better outcomes than ozone therapy as an adjunct to SRP in periodontitis.Materials and methods: we examined 57 (mean age 49,3 ± 1,02) patients with chronic periodontitis, divided into groups, SRP + PAD, SRP + ozone therapy and SRP alone. Subgingival plaque samples were subjected to DNA extraction and real time PCR amplifcation for detection Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), Prevotella intermedia (Pi), Tannerella forsythensis (Tf), Treponema denticola (Td), Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (Aa). The amount of periodontopathogens and clinical parameters including plaque index, clinical attachment loss, pocket depth, bleeding on probing were measured at baseline, after 40, 90 and 180 days.Results: the results in groups of PAD+SRP and ozone therapy+SRP showed an improvement in all clinical parameters PI, BOP, PD, CAL and the quantity of Pg, Td and Tf compared to the control group during an observation period.Conclusion: the results showed additional benefts from PAD and ozone therapy as an adjunctive treatment to SRP for patients of chronic periodontitis.

Introduction: The motive of the present study is to comparatively measure the competence and effectiveness of diode laser and chlorhexidine chip as adjuncts to the scaling and root planing procedure, in patients with chronic periodontitis. Aim: To evaluate the efficacy of diode laser and chlorhexidine chip before and after scaling and root planing in the management of chronic periodontitis. The objective is to compare the efficacy of chlorhexidine chip and diode laser before and after scaling and root planning on clinical parameters. Study and design: Randomized clinical trial with split mouth design done in the Department of Periodontics and Implantology. Materials and methods: Twenty chronic periodontitis patients having a probing pocket depth of 5mm-7mm on at least one interproximal site in each quadrant of the mouth were selected in the study. After initial treatment, four sites in each patient were randomly subjected to scaling and root planing (control), chlorhexidine chip application (CHX chip group), diode laser (810 nm) decontamination (Diode laser group) or combination of both (Diode laser and chip group). All subjects received a clinical periodontal examination by single examiner who recorded all the variables by manual procedure. Clinical parameters namely Plaque index (PI), Gingival Index (GI), probing pocket depth (PPD) and clinical attachment level (CAL) were assessed at baseline, one month and three months. Results were statistically analysed using one-way ANOVA followed by Post Hoc Analysis. Results: The differences in PPD reduction and CAL gain between control group and CHX chip and combination groups were statistically significant (p<0.05) at three months, whereas, the diode laser group did not show any significant difference from the control group. Conclusion: Within the limitations in the present study, the following conclusions were derived, i.e., chlorhexidine local delivery alone or in combination with diode laser decontamination is effective in improving oral hygiene, reducing gingival inflammation, reducing probing pocket depth and improving clinical attachment levels when used as adjuncts to scaling and root planing in non-surgical periodontal therapy of patients with chronic periodontitis. Keywords: Diode laser decontamination, Local drug delivery, Scaling and root planing.

Objectives: Photodynamic therapy applies to the elimination of target cells by reactive oxygen species using a photosensitizing agent and a sufcient wavelength of light. It is a new, non-invasive approach to preventing infection. It is now an upcoming alternative treatment modality for periodontitis patients as a supplement to traditional scaling and root planing. The objective of the present study was to assess and compare the effect of photodynamic therapy with conventional Scaling and Root planing in patients with chronic periodontitis. Methods: The study included a minimum of 5 non-smoking males with mild to moderate periodontitis. Clinical parameters such as plaque index, gingival index, gingival bleeding index, pocket probing depth, clinical attachment level; microbiological parameter – anaerobic bacterial CFU count in subgingival plaque samples and biochemical parameter – GCF SOD levels were evaluated at baseline and 28 days postoperatively. The obtained data were analyzed using SPSS (SYSTAT 12) statistical software. The Wilcoxon signed Rank test was used to compare the mean values of various parameters before and after treatment. Results: The results of the study show that all clinical parameters improved from baseline to day 28. Following therapy, the mean levels of the anaerobic bacterial CFU and GCF SOD have decreased dramatically. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest a signicant improvement in clinical, microbiological and Biochemical parameters with the use of PDT as an adjunct to conventional SRP in chronic periodontitis patients

ABSTRACTObjectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cigarette smoking on clinical parameters and signs anemia of chronic disease in chronic periodontitis patients.Methods: The study base consisted of 88 patients with chronic periodontitis including 45 volunteer current smokers with age range of 30-69 (45.5±8.5) and 43 volunteer non-smokers with age range of 32-61 years (45.8±7.9). The clinical parameters including plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), bleeding on probing (BOP), probing depth (PD), clinical attachment loss (CAL) were recorded and several red blood cell parameters were determined from peripheral blood samples.Results: In smokers, PI, PD and CAL were significantly higher than non-smokers (P<.05). The number of erythrocytes and the levels of hemoglobin, hematocrit and iron were lower in smokers compared to non-smokers (P<.05).Conclusions: In the present study, it is concluded that cigarette smoking may be effective on the signs of anemia of chronic disease in patients with chronic periodontitis.
