Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate how gender affects the outcomes of periodontal treatment by analyzing data from eight randomized controlled trials (RCTs) conducted in Brazil, the U.S., and Germany.
  • Researchers compared clinical parameters between men and women diagnosed with severe forms of periodontitis before and one year after receiving treatment.
  • Results showed that men had slightly worse clinical responses compared to women, but these differences were minimal and didn't seem clinically important, indicating that further research on gender influences in periodontal treatment is warranted.

Aims: To estimate the change in the alveolar ridge by means of a new alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) approach, using an anodized titanium foil (Tseal) associated with a bovine bone graft (BBG) by cone-beam computerized tomography.

Materials And Methods: Sixteen patients, each presenting one hopeless tooth, were selected and these teeth were carefully extracted. The alveolar socket was filled with BBG and the Tseal was trimmed and adapted to the bone crest.

Background: To our knowledge, to date, no studies have comprehensively assessed the changes occurring in the subgingival microbiome of young patients with periodontitis treated by means of mechanical and antibiotic therapy. Thus, this study aimed to use next-generation sequencing to evaluate the subgingival microbial composition of young patients with severe periodontitis treated with scaling and root planing and systemic metronidazole and amoxicillin.

Methods: Subgingival samples from healthy individuals and shallow and deep sites from periodontitis patients were individually collected at baseline and 90 days post-treatment.

Objective: The aim of this systematic review was to compare the clinical effectiveness of systemic antibiotics administered in the active stage of periodontal treatment or after the healing phase.

Material And Methods: An electronic search was performed in the databases EMBASE, MEDLINE and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) statement. A manual search of the reference list of selected studies and of review articles was also performed up to November 2013.

Background: We have recently developed a periodontal diagnostic tool that was validated in non-smokers with periodontitis. Tobacco smoking is a recognized risk factor for periodontal diseases that can mask gingival bleeding and lead to a false negative diagnosis. Therefore, the purpose of current study is to further validate this instrument in smokers with periodontal diseases.

Aim: To evaluate the clinical effects of the adjunctive use of metronidazole (MTZ) and amoxicillin (AMX) in the treatment of generalized aggressive periodontitis (GAgP).

Methods: Thirty subjects were randomly assigned to receive scaling and root planing (SRP) alone or combined with MTZ (400 mg/TID) and AMX (500 mg/TID) for 14 days. Subjects were clinically monitored at baseline, 6 months and 1 year post-therapies.
