Summary

Ability to anticipate the outcomes of periodontal therapy at baseline visit is crucial to outline and customize a treatment plan with predictable outcomes and cost-effectiveness. Presence of diverse range of health/disease-associated molecules in oral environment that reflect health and disease, together with clinical parameters, is an appealing approach to use them as biomarkers to diagnose, predict, and monitor periodontal disease. Among these proteins are E-cad and TAC which available evidence indicate that their concentrations in oral biofluids increase remarkably during periodontitis as compared to healthy periodontium.

Conditions

  • Periodontitis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Root surface debridement

the included patients will undergo full-mouth supra- and subgingival debridement by using ultrasonic device and manual instrumentation at baseline. This is followed, after 1 week, by performing root surface debridement for all pockets with PPD = 4-6 mm for each patient. All patients will be instructed to brush their teeth twice daily and will be supplied with the same type of tooth paste and toothbrush, with suitable interdental aids.
