Summary

Background: The purpose of the present study is to research whether stress scale scores alter with relationship to gingival inflammation and examine the impact of non-surgical periodontal therapy during pregnancy on the levels of cytokines in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and on salivary stress-related hormones.

Methods: 30 non-pregnant (control group) and 30 pregnant women (test group) who fulfilled the study inclusion criteria were chosen. The participants with moderate/severe gingivitis were included. Clinical data and samples of GCF and salivary were collected at baseline and after periodontal therapy. The levels of cytokines interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) and IL-10, and concentration of salivary chromogranin A (Cg A) hormone were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits.
