Summary

This randomized, placebo controlled, split-mouth clinical study trial evaluates the effects of Ozone therapy on clinical and biochemical parameters. Total of 20 participants completed the study . Periodontal parameters were evaluated at baseline and 3 months following periodontal therapy. All participants were treated non-surgically. Topical gaseous ozone was applied into periodontal pockets. Gingival crevicular fluid pentraxin-3 (PTX-3), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (Hs-CRP) were evaluated.

Conditions

  • Periodontitis

Interventions

DEVICE

Ozone application with the Ozonytron XL device

An ozone generator (Ozonytron; Bionix, Munchen, Germany) with an KPX probe (CA Probe; Ozonytron, Bionix, Munchen, Germany) was used for OT. Topical gaseous ozone was applied into the periodontal pocket twice a week for 2 weeks based on the manufacturer's instructions. Ozone applications were at 75% power for 30 seconds (75 µg/ml). Ozone applications were performed by an experienced investigator. Ozone applications in the control side were simulated without starting the ozone generator
