This study used scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to evaluate the morphology and adhesion of blood components on root surfaces instrumented by curettes, piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler and Er,Cr:YSGG laser. One hundred samples from 25 teeth were divided into 5 groups: 1) Curettes; 2) Piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler; 3) Curettes plus piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler; 4) Er,Cr:YSGG laser; 5) Curettes plus Er,Cr:YSGG laser. Ten samples from each group were used for analysis of root morphology and the other 10 were used for analysis of adhesion of blood components on root surface. The results were analyzed statistically by the Kruskall-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests with a significance level of 5%. The group treated with curettes showed smoother surfaces when compared to the groups were instrumented with piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler and the Er,Cr:YSGG laser. The surfaces instrumented with piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler and Er,Cr:YSGG laser, alone or in combination with hand scaling and root planing, did not differ significantly (p>0.05) among themselves. No statistically significant differences (p>0.05) among groups were found as to the adhesion of blood components on root surface. Ultrasonic instrumentation and Er,Cr:YSGG irradiation produced rougher root surfaces than the use of curettes, but there were no differences among treatments with respect to the adhesion of blood components.

Abundant evidence has been advanced to support the idea that destructive periodontal disease is closely associated with subgingival plaque and calculus. A probe-type tip has been newly designed for the ultrasonic scaler to be used for easy debridement in deep pockets without local anesthesia or gingival elevation. The purpose of this study was to examine, by in vitro and in vivo experiments, the potential of this device for clinical application. The efficiency of ultrasonic debridement on calculus removal by a probe-type tip was examined on extracted teeth. All of 170 calculus spots were easily removed by the device. Accessibility of the root surfaces to the tip in deep periodontal pockets was examined on 46 root surfaces within deep pockets. The Accessibility Quotient of the instrument was 0.94 ± 0.10. The efficiency of ultrasonic debridement of subgingival plaque and calculus in deep pockets was also examined in 86 non-instrumented root surfaces. The mean operating time was 115.0 ± 60.9 sec/surface. None of the patients complained of pain, even though anesthesia was not used. The mean percentage of residual deposits in microscopic pocket areas was 4.6 ± 7.4% in 58 experimental surfaces, although it was 95.8 ± 8.3% in 28 control surfaces. Finally, the efficacy of debridement on clinical parameters was examined in 72 deep pockets (>4 mm) of 12 patients. Sulcus fluid and number of bleeding-on-probing sites decreased markedly one week after the debridement without anesthesia, and remained unchanged up to four weeks. A significant decrease of probing pocket depth and gain of probing attachment level were also found in instrumented sites. We concluded that the application of this device for subgingival debridement in deep pockets seems to be efficacious for non-surgical therapy.

Modest Reduction

Background: Periodontal disease is considered as a diabetes complication and has been suggested that periodontal treatment plus antibiotics should reduce glycated hemoglobin A, by reducing local production of pro inflammatory substances. Objective: To evaluate diabetic patients with periodontal disease under periodontal treatment plus topical antibiotics and reduction of  HbA1c, compared to diabetic patients under periodontal treatment without antibiotics. Materials and Methods: Using PUBMED, SCOPUS, WEB OF SCIENCE, EMBASE and Google Scholar data bases, were screened documents from 2008 to 2018. The documents included were the clinical studies, which included non-surgical periodontal treatment plus topical antibiotics, whose outcomes included the HbA1c report. Two independent researchers evaluate title; abstract and bias risk with Downs Black scale and Cochrane tool. Documents with a score higher than 15 on average by the two evaluators were included. Results: Five articles, which find inclusion criteria, were identified. Two documents failed to demonstrate statistically significant effect when compared to non-surgical periodontal therapy alone. Conclusion: In general a modest reduction of HbA1c was identified when using antibiotic therapy.
