Brief summary
A randomized controlled clinical trial was done to assess the periodontal status of the individuals baseline followed by by including chronotherapy with complex phytoadaptogens (CFA) into the non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT). The periodontal parameters were again assessed after and compared with the control group (participants with healthy periodontium) and group with non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT).
Detailed description
The aim of this study was to increase the effectiveness of treatment and prevention of chronic generalized periodontitis and increase remission periods by including chronotherapy with complex phytoadaptogens (CFA) into the non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT). Methods: Thirty systemically healthy patients, who had generalized chronic periodontitis with probing pocket depth (PPD) ≥5 mm, plaque index score \<1,5 and the ability to maintain optimum oral hygiene after the initial phase of treatment, were included in the present investigation. Patients were divided into 3 groups: 1 Group - control (10 students with healthy periodontium); 2 Group - 10 patients receiving standard non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT); 3 Group - CFA application (10 patients receiving NSPT + 28-day chronotherapy with complex phytoadaptogens (CFA)). Control examinations were carried out in the following periods: before, after and 6 months after treatment. After each study time point the patients were able to visit the dental office to assess the periodontal status. The examination included the following: 1. Estberg questionnaire to determine the chronotype once before treatment; 2. Simplified Oral Hygiene Index John C. Greene Jack R. Vermillion (1964) (OHI-S); 3. Sulcus Bleeding Index Muhleman. H.R (1975) (SBI); 4. Periodontal Index Rusell. A.L (1956) (PI); 5. Doppler ultrasound. Patients of 2 and 3 groups received oral hygiene instructions (including brushing technique, the use of interdentally flosses, and/or brushes), NSPT (mouth scaling and root planing using an ultrasonic scaler UDS-L LED (Woodpecker, China) and Graceys curettes (Hu Friedy, Chicago, USA)). The treated periodontal pockets were irrigated with 0.12% chlorhexidine gluconate. Patients were given recommendation to rinse their mouth three times daily for 14 days using 0.12% chlorhexidine gluconate Statistical Analysis: Statistical analyses were performed using Statistica 10,0 software (StatSoft, Inc, Russia). Data were investigated by nonparametric method with determination of median (Md) and interquantile ranges (25th and 75th percentile) due to the small number of variants in the sample (Wilcoxon test). Data were compared before, after and 6 months after treatment. Statistically significant differences in all statistical tests was set to P\<0.05.
Interventions
DRUGCocktail from complex phytoadaptogens (CFA)
Cocktail from complex phytoadaptogens (CFA) is composed from 70% alcohol extracts of Glycyrrhiza glabra, Rhodiola rosea, Acantopanax senticosus in the ratio 2:1:1. Application of CFA in 3 group was carried out after non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT). After NSPT the patient filled out an Estberg questionnaire to determine the chronotype. After processing the questionnaire, a chronotype was identified and the patient was prescribed CFA dosage. Application of CFA was carried out in the periods of exacerbation of chronic periodontitis within 28 days with a dosage of CFA depending on the chronotype of the person - morning chronotype at 45 drops in the morning before 10.00 o'clock; independent chronotype 20 drops 3 times a day; evening chronotype 30 drops at 14.00 o'clock and 20 drops at 19.00 o'clock.
PROCEDUREStandard non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT)
Oral hygiene instructions (including brushing technique, the use of interdentally flosses, and/or brushes), NSPT (mouth scaling and root planing using an ultrasonic scaler UDS-L LED (Woodpecker, China) and Graceys curettes (Hu Friedy, Chicago, USA)). The treated periodontal pockets were irrigated with 0.12% chlorhexidine gluconate. Patients were given recommendation to rinse their mouth three times daily for 14 days using 0.12% chlorhexidine gluconate

| Periodontal Index Rusell. A.L (1956) | 6 months | Changes in clinical parameter PI (Periodontal Index Rusell. A.L (1956)) in chronic periodontitis patients of group 2 (with NSPT) and group 3 (NSPT + 28-day use of CFA) from baseline to 6 months. Index shows severity of gingivitis, the presence of periodontal pockets, tooth mobility and alveolar bone loss. Evaluation of results: 0.1 - 1.5 points - I stage; 1.5 - 4.0 points - stage II; 4.0 - 8.0 points - stage III. |
| Sulcus Bleeding Index Muhleman. H.R (1975) (SBI) | 6 months | Changes in clinical parameter SBI (Sulcus Bleeding Index Muhleman. H.R (1975)) in chronic periodontitis patients of group 2 (with NSPT) and group 3 (NSPT + 28-day use of CFA) from baseline to 6 months. Index is used for assessment of gingival bleeding. Evaluation of results: score 0 - gingival of normal texture and color, no bleeding; score 1 - gingival apparently normal, bleeding on probing; score 2 - bleeding on probing, change in color, no oedema; score 3 - bleeding on probing change in color, slight oedema; score 4 - either: (a) bleeding on probing, change in color, obvious oedema; or (b) bleeding on probing, obvious oedema; score 5 - bleeding on probing and spontaneous bleeding, change in color, marked oedema. |
