Summary

Obesity and periodontitis are among the most common chronic disorders affecting the world population, while Prolactin (PRL) is a neuroendocrine hormone that within the physiological range stimulates bone formation while mild to marked increase in its level induces bone resorption and inhibits bone formation.

Aim of the study: study aims to investigate prolactin (PRL) levels in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) in obese (O) patients with and without stage II and III periodontitis (P). Further, to evaluate the effect of non-surgical periodontal therapy on these levels compared to controls.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Obese patients with stage II and III periodontitis and non surgical peridontal therapy

Patients had BMI of more than 29.9 kg/m2. charaterized by Stage II periodontitis with clinical attachment loss of 3-4 mm, radiographic bone loss confined to the coronal third, and no history of tooth loss due to infection and Stage III signifies severe destruction with attachment loss of more th toan or equal 5 mm, bone loss extending into the middle or apical third of the root, and potential tooth loss of up to four teeth. Patients will undergo full mouth scaling and root planning for two sessions

OTHER

obese patients with healthy periodontium with no intervention

Patients had BMI of more than 29.9 kg/m2 but with healthy peridontium
