Brief summary
Inflammatory mediators in periodontitis may lead to elevated systemic cytokine levels, resulting in increased bone resorption including the jaws. Osteoporosis may have an influence on the periodontal condition of post-menopausal women and the risk for periodontal disease may increase due to osteoporosis. The hypothesis of the study was that non-surgical periodontal treatment and medical treatment of osteoporosis by bisphosphonates may improve the clinical outcomes and decrease salivary levels of IL-1β, IL-17, ALP and 8-OHdG. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the mechanism of bi-directional relationship between osteoporosis and periodontal diseases and to investigate the outcomes of non-surgical periodontal treatment with regard to salivary levels of IL-1β, IL-17, 8-OHdG and ALP in patients with periodontitis and osteoporosis.

Study design
Intervention model description
25 patients with periodontitis (P) and osteoporosis (group 1), 25 systemically healthy patients with P (group 2) and 25 systemically and periodontally healthy individuals (group 3) were enrolled in this study. Individuals were periodontally examined at baseline, 1 month and 3 months following the non-surgical periodontal therapy. Participants in group 1 and 2 received non-surgical periodontal therapy including supra- and subgingival scaling, and root planning.Patients were advised and instructed to perform oral care twice a day, use interdental toothbrushes once a day regularly. No scaling and root planning was performed in the group 3.
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* The participants were postmenopausal patients defined as absence of menstruation for at least 12 months. * Patients with periodontitis; * Patients who had no systemic diseases and were periodontally healthy (no attachment loss), * Patients who were treated with oral bisphosphonate at least one year (70 mg tablet once weekly)
Exclusion criteria
* if they had received any periodontal treatment in the preceding three months, * if they were pregnant or in the period of lactation, * if they had systemic diseases that may interfere with normal healing mechanism, * if they had taken antibiotics, anticonvulsants, immunosuppressants, calcium channel blockers in the preceding six months. * Smokers
