Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the effects of concentrated growth factor (CGF) and advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) when used with the coronally advanced flap (CAF) technique in treating type I multiple gingival recessions.
- Sixteen patients with gingival recession defects were randomly assigned to three treatment groups: CAF with CGF, CAF with A-PRF, and CAF alone, with various clinical outcomes measured at baseline and six months post-surgery.
- Results showed significant improvements in clinical measurements like clinical attachment level, gingival recession, and thickness across all groups, with CAF combined with A-PRF yielding the highest mean root coverage and enhanced patient comfort compared to the CAF alone group.
Objective: This study aimed to examine the levels of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) and inhibitory-Smads (I-Smads) in saliva and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) in patients with Stage 3 Grade B periodontitis before and after non-surgical periodontal treatment.
Background: Recently, it has been stated that Smads play an active role in all conditions where TGF-β is involved, including periodontal inflammation.
Methods: Twenty healthy participants (control) and 20 patients with Stage 3, Grade B periodontitis were recruited.
Background And Objective: Interleukin (IL)-32, which has been recently reported to be associated with periodontitis, has been suggested to have pleiotropic effect due to its 9 different isoforms. The aim of this study was to investigate the levels of IL-32α, IL-32β, IL-32γ, IL-32δ isoforms in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and plasma before and after non-surgical periodontal treatment in patients with periodontitis (P).
Materials And Methods: Twenty-seven P and 27 periodontally healthy controls (C) were recruited in this study.
