The Effect of Regular Home Use of Dual-light Antibacterial Photodynamic Therapy (aPDT) or the Use of a Powered Toothbrush in Older Individuals With Periodontitis and Mild Cognitive Impairment.
Objective To compare three different oral hygiene regimens regarding plaque index (PI), bleeding on probing (BOP), the number of deepened periodontal pockets ≥4 mm (PPD), oral halitosis, and changes in oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in an older population with periodontitis stage I-III and mild cognitive impairment. Are there …
A Chitosan Brush and Enamel Matrix Derivative for Non-surgical Treatment of Furcations
Patients diagnosed with stage III or IV periodontitis who exhibit mandibular first or second molars with Class II, Subclass A, or B buccal and/or lingual mandibular furcation defects (horizontal probing depth of ≥ 3 mm ) will be recruited. Patients diagnosed with stage III or IV periodontitis who exhibit maxillary …
Effect of Photobiomodulation on Pain and Healing of the Vertical Releasing Incision After Endodontic Microsurgery
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Photobiomodulation (PBM) in postoperative pain after endodontic microsurgery (EMS) in patients from the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, School of Dentistry Graduate Endodontic Clinic and to assess the soft tissue healing of the vertical releasing incision …
Oral Microbiome in Carotid Atherosclerosis
The goal of this observational study, called OMICA (Oral Microbiome in Carotid Atherosclerosis), is to learn how bacteria living in the mouth may influence the development and stability of plaques in the carotid arteries, which supply blood to the brain. Plaque buildup in these arteries can lead to stroke. Researchers …
Effect of Different Root Canal Sealers on Oxidative Stress Markers
The goal of this clinical trial is to primary purpose investigate and compare oxidative stress markers in patients with chronic apical periodontitis treated with different root canal paste in a single session. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is there a change in oxidative stress markers measured from …
Changes in Microbial Status From Dentate, Edentulous and After Dental Implant Placement
The objectives of this study are to analyze the oral microbiome modulations occurring during the transition from partial (with some residual teeth) to full edentulous (without remaining teeth) status and implant placement in subjects affected by severe periodontitis; to evaluate if microbiome changes in relation to the used of different …
Regenerative Gel (Emdogain®) for Healing After Wisdom Tooth Extraction
This study investigates whether the intraoperative application of a specialized regenerative gel (Emdogain®) can improve the periodontal health of the mandibular second molar by preventing or reducing the formation of tissue defects after the surgical removal of an adjacent impacted lower wisdom tooth. Surgical extraction of a lower wisdom tooth …
Adjunctive Diode Laser Therapy in Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of adjunctive application of diode laser to mechanical, non-surgical root surface debridement in patients attending periodontal office. The main question it aims to answer is: To compare the clinical effectiveness of adjunctive application of a 940-nm diode laser with …
Effects of Periodontal Treatment Associated With Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy on Halitosis in Patients With Diabetes Mellitus
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of periodontal treatment associated with the use of a tongue scraper, compared with the same treatment combined with antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT), in reducing halitosis in individuals with periodontal disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The main question it …
Hyaluronic Acid and Polynucleotides for Supra-bony Defects
The goal of this pilot study is to describe the early wound healing molecular events and the vascularization pattern associated with the treatment of supra-bony defects with access flap alone or in association with a combined formulation of hyaluronic acid and polydeoxyribonucleotides gel.
