No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of the present study is to test if a fasting mimicking diet (FMD) can influence the systemic and periodontal response following non-surgical periodontal therapy. The null hypothesis is that a FMD does not modify the local and systemic inflammatory post-treatment response.

The test group will have periodontal treatment followed by fasting mimicking diet while the control group will have the same periodontal treatment and continue with their normal diet.

Full-mouth clinical periodontal measurements including probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), bleeding on probing (BOP), gingival index (GI) and plaque index (PI) will be recorded.Blood and GCF samples will be taken.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) will be used to determine biochemical parameters in the biological samples.

Conditions

  • Periodontitis

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Fast mimicking diet group

Test group will be assigned to follow one cycle of a fasting mimicking diet the same day after receiving the full mouth non surgical periodontal treatment. The FMD program is a plant-based diet program designed to attain fasting-like effects while providing both macro- and micronutrients to minimize the burden of fasting and adverse effects. The FMD consist 5 days regimen that provides approximately 1.100 kilocalories for the first day ; approximately 750 kilocalories per day for the second to the fifth day. FMD group will need 5 visits.

PROCEDURE

Normal diet group

Normal diet (control) group after receiving the non surgical periodontal treatment (with periodontal Gracey curettes and ultrasonic scaler) will continue with their current diet.Normal diet group will need 5 visits.
