Keywords
Peri-implant disease, aMMP-8, Antibacterial photodynamic therapy (aBPT), Oral hygiene
Brief summary
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of regular antibacterial photodynamic Lumoral® treatment on gingival health and plaque volume, and anti-inflammatory effect of daily double light therapy on implant teeth. The study will use a medical device containing a light-activated Lumorinse® mouthwash and a Lumoral® light activator.
Detailed description
The hypothesis is that antibacterial photodynamic therapy improves tissue health by reducing inflammation without any side effect. Study participants will be invited from a dental clinic in Tampere, Finland, from the patients of an oral hygienist's office. Participants will be randomized to the treatment and control groups using the closed envelope method. Participants in the treatment group will receive Lumoral® treatment according to the manufacturer's protocol, once daily for 10 min for 15 days and then twice daily for 15 days.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Active matrix metalloproteinase 8 (aMMP-8) | 30 days | Change in periodontal inflammation marker aMMP-8 |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Bleeding on probing (BOP) | 30 days | Improvement in bleeding on probing (BOP) A full-mouth assessment at six sites per tooth (mesiobuccal, buccal, distobuccal, mesiolingual, lingual, distolingual) Gingival bleeding is considered as positive if bleeding occurs within 15 seconds after gentle probing with a probe at the sulcus Dichotomous scoring to each site of the tooth as bleeding 1 present and 0 absent BOP is reported as the percentage (%) of sites with positive findings Calculation formula: number of bleeding sites/ 6 times number of teeth |
| Visible plaque index (VPI) | 30 days | Change in visible plaque index |
