Purpose: To investigate the effect of periodontal initial therapy on metabolic control in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with chronic periodontitis.
Methods: Thirty type 2 diabetic patients with chronic periodontitis were selected as experimental group, 30 patients with chronic periodontitis were selected as control group. Their gingival index(GI), probing depth(PD), clinical attachment level(CAL), fasting plasma glucose(FPG), glycated hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c), total cholesterol(TC) and triglyceride(TG) were evaluated using SAS 6.12 software package for multiple linear regression analysis before treatment(as base) and 1, 3 month(s) after periodontal initial therapy.
Results: In both two groups, a significant improvement of periodontal index was found after periodontal initial therapy (P<0.05). After therapy, TC, TG in diabetic patients showed no changes(P>0.05), and FPG, HbA1c in fairly-controlled diabetic patients were reduced significantly(P<0.05) whereas the well-controlled diabetic patients showed slight but insignificant decrease for these parameter(P>0.05).
Conclusion: The result of periodontal initial therapy in the type 2 diabetic patients with chronic periodontitis is significant in short time. It can reduce the level of FPG and HbA1c. Supported by National Key Science and Technology Project from "Tenth Five Year Plan" (Grant No.2004BA720A26).

Proper alignment of the teeth not only aids in functional occlusion but also promotes harmonious gingival contours, potentially reducing the risk of inflammation and gingival recession. This case series aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of optimizing axial inclination through clear aligner orthodontic treatment in addressing gingival recession defects. This case series included nine patients, aged 20-36 years, who presented with varying degrees of gingival recession on 12 mandibular incisors.

Periodontitis, a widespread inflammatory disease, is the major cause of tooth loss in adults. While mechanical periodontal therapy benefits the periodontal disease treatment, adjunctive periodontal therapy is also necessary. Topically applied anti-inflammatory agents have gained considerable attention in periodontitis therapy.

Periodontal disease is recognized as a chronic multifactorial inflammatory condition initiated by dysbiosis within subgingival plaque biofilms. Antimicrobial peptides exhibit a wide spectrum of antimicrobial action, and thus, provide one of the first lines of host defense against oral pathogens. Aged garlic extract (AGE) is effective for preventing the progression of periodontal disease.

Apexification is a crucial procedure for achieving apical healing in non-vital teeth with open apices. Traditionally, calcium hydroxide has been used for this purpose, but it has significant drawbacks, including prolonged treatment duration, increased risk of root fracture, and the potential for porous barrier formation. Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) has emerged as a superior alternative due to its biocompatibility, faster setting time, and better sealing properties.
