Brief summary

Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of HA as an adjunct to scaling and root planning (SRP) on clinical parameters, periodontal inflamed surface area (PISA) and adenosine deaminase (ADA), catalase (CAT), and glutathione (GSH) levels in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) in patients with periodontitis.

Detailed description

Design: A total of 24 Stage II-III periodontitis patients will be included in this split-mouth, randomized-controlled study. The study population will be divided into four groups: in Group 1 (SRP): SRP+ saline; in Group 2 (SRP+HAgel): SRP + HA gel; in Group 3 (SRP+HAmo): SRP+ HA mouthrinse; and in Group 4 (SRP+HAmo+HAgel): SRP+HA mouthrinse + HA gingival gel were applied. At baseline and Week 4 periodontal clinical parameters and PISA will be calculated. Also, GCF amount will be collected to evaluate ADA, CAT, and GSH by spectrophotometric analysis.

Interventions

Under local anesthesia, full-mouth SRP will be performed by a single investigator. Immediately after the SRP, HA gel or mouthrinse will perform according to the groups' procedure. In Group 1, the periodontal sulcus will be irrigated with saline solution after SRP.

DRUGHyaluronic acid gel (HA) and SRP

In Group 2, after SRP will be performed and irrigated with saline the area was dried with a soft air and, then, a gel containing HA will be applied intrasulcular.

DRUGHA mouthrinse and SRP

In Group 3, HA hydrogel mouthrinse will be used as an irrigator after SRP.

DRUGHA mouthrinse+gel and SRP

In Group 4, after SRP will be performed, the sulcus was irrigated with HA hydrogel mouthrinse and, then, intrasulculary HA gingival gel will be applied.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
clinical attachment level (CAL)Change from Baseline to week 4as the sum of gingival recession height and probing depth will be recorded.
gingival index (GI)Change from Baseline to week 4confirming to Silness and Löe index (Löe & Silness, 1963)
bleeding on probing (BOP)Change from Baseline to week 4according to Ainoma and Bay (AINAMO & Bay, 1975);
Probing depth (PD)Change from Baseline to week 4as the measurement of the length between the bottom of the periodontal pocket to marginal gingiva;
gingival recession height (GRH)Change from Baseline to week 4as the measurement of the distance between the marginal gingiva and cemento-enamel junction
plaque indexChange from Baseline to week 4in accordance with the Sillness and Löe index (Silness & Löe, 1964)

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Changes of Adenosine deaminase (ADA) levels in gingival crevicular fluidChanges from Baseline to week 1,2,4The ADA activity will be evaluated spectrophotometrically
Changes of Catalase levels in gingival crevicular fluidChanges from Baseline to week 1,2,4The catalase activity will be evaluated spectrophotometrically
Changes of Glutathione levels in gingival crevicular fluidChanges from Baseline to week 1,2,4The Glutathione activity will be evaluated spectrophotometrically
Changes of Periodontal inflammed surface areaChange from Baseline Baseline to week 4All clinical parameters will be entered on Microsoft Excel Program (www.parsprototo.info) which constructed for calculating PISA. The BOP percentage for each tooth will be calculated by entering number sites with BOP values in the Excel program.
