Summary

Both periodontitis and plaque psoriasis are non communicable chronic inflammatory diseases. They share genetic polymorphysms (IL-1, IL-6 e TNFalfa) and risk factors (smoking, diabetes, obesity), as well as a great resemblance in terms of pathophysiological pathways. In fact, they are both characterized by an hyperactivation of the innate immune response which induces an excessive production of cytokines such as IL-17/TNFalfa. While non-surgical periodontal therapy consists in the mechanical removal of supra and subgingival calculus, psoriasis treatment involves the administration of either systemic or biologic drugs. Evidence is scarce regarding the effectiveness of non-surgical periodontal therapy in ameliorating the clinical outcomes of plaque psoriasis. The biological plausibility relies on the important reduction of systemic inflammation caused by periodontal treatment, which could ameliorate psoriasis phenotype.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Non-surgical periodontal treatment

Non-Surgical periodontal Treatment was performed by removing supra and subgingival calculus and using both ultrasonic and manual instruments. Oral Hygiene Instructions (OHI) were provided throughout the experimental period. Local anesthesia was performed only when needed.
