Summary

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate if the measurement of salivary Interleukin (IL)-39, IL-41, IL-1Beta(β), and Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) levels can aid in the early diagnosis of periodontitis in patients with varying periodontal conditions, both smokers and non-smokers. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Can salivary IL-39, IL-41, IL-1β, and TNF-α levels be used as biomarkers for the early diagnosis of periodontitis? How do IL-41 and IL-39 levels correlate with smoking status in periodontal healthy and periodontitis patients? Researchers will compare the salivary biomarker levels between smokers and non-smokers to see if smoking affects these levels.

Participants will:

Provide salivary samples for biomarker analysis. Undergo a comprehensive periodontal examination to determine their periodontal status.

Clinical Measurements and Saliva Sample Collection

Saliva samples will be collected from all participants, and comprehensive clinical parameters will be meticulously documented. The Plaque Index (PI) and Gingival Index (GI) will be measured at four sites per tooth. Full-mouth probing depth (PD) and clinical attachment level (CAL) will be recorded in detail for each tooth at six sites. The percentage of bleeding areas will be assessed within 20 seconds post-probing using a binary scoring system to indicate presence or absence. All clinical parameters will be recorded by a calibrated periodontologist utilizing manual probing techniques. Following collection, saliva samples will be stored at -80°C until subsequent analysis. Concentrations of IL-39, IL-41, IL-1β, and TNF-α in the saliva samples will be quantified using specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits.
