RESUMO
AIM: This study aimed to evaluate clinical performance of non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT) and its influential factors in a large Chinese population with generalized aggressive periodontitis (GAgP). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Longitudinal periodontal examination data of 1,004 GAgP patients (numbers of patients with observation periods 6 weeks~, 3 months~, 6 months~, 1 year~, 3 years~ and >5 years were 203, 310, 193, 205, 70 and 23, respectively) were extracted from a hospital-based electronic periodontal charting record system and analysed by multilevel analysis. RESULTS: Mean probing depth (PD) and attachment loss (AL) reductions at patient level were 1.17 mm and 1.07 mm, respectively. Multilevel analysis demonstrated PD reductions after maintenance were mainly influenced by frequency of supportive periodontal treatment (FSPT), gender, adjunctive systemic use of antibiotics, baseline mobility, tooth type and baseline PD and bleeding index reductions were mainly influenced by FSPT, adjunctive systemic use of antibiotics, baseline AL, baseline mobility, tooth type and baseline PD. CONCLUSION: The clinical performance of NSPT on patients with GAgP was proved in the large Chinese population. Outcomes of NSPT were mainly influenced by FSPT, adjunctive systemic use of antibiotics, baseline mobility, tooth type and baseline PD.

AIM: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT) and its influential factors in a large Chinese population with chronic periodontitis. METHODS: Periodontal examination data of 10,789 patients with at least one periodontal re-evaluation record were extracted from a hospital-based electronic periodontal charting record system. Probing depth (PD) and bleeding index (BI) reductions after NSPT and their influential factors were analysed by multilevel analysis. RESULTS: Mean PD reductions at patient level and site level were 0.62 and 0.65 mm respectively. Mean reductions of percentage of tooth with BI > 1 and BI > 2 were 14.9% and 25.21%. Multilevel analysis demonstrated that PD and BI reductions were mainly influenced by baseline PD, baseline attachment loss (AL), baseline mobility, tooth type and frequency of periodontal maintenance (FPM). Besides, PD reduction was associated with baseline BI for all sites and was associated with gender and smoking status for sites with baseline PD ≥ 5 mm. CONCLUSION: The effectiveness of NSPT on patients with chronic periodontitis was proved in a large Chinese population. Outcomes of NSPT were mainly influenced by baseline PD, baseline AL, baseline mobility, tooth type and FPM.

PURPOSE: Patients might refuse the offer of local anaesthesia (LA) administration prior to dental treatment. This study investigates subjective discomfort perception during non-surgical mechanical periodontal therapy delivered with or without LA. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty patients with mild to moderate chronic periodontitis and prior periodontal debridement experience were randomly enrolled in nonsurgical therapy of a quadrant with or without LA administration. Patients were free to comply or not with the allocated LA arrangement. Visual analogue scales (VAS) of discomfort perception at various stages of the treatment as well as overall satisfaction were recorded. Demographic, psychosocial and periodontal parameters were recorded. RESULTS: Thirty-one patients undergoing nonsurgical periodontal therapy not receiving (LA-) and 29 participants receiving LA (LA+) were studied. Compared to LA- patients, LA+ individuals perceived less discomfort during treatment and reported less dental anxiety (p<0.05). Lower overall treatment satisfaction was associated with prior unpleasant periodontal experience (p=0.047). Overall, debridement discomfort was associated with not receiving LA, noncompliance with the pain control regimen allocated, longer treatment duration, greater gingival inflammation and a higher percentage sites with probing pocket depths≥5 mm (p<0.05). CONCLUSION: Clinicians should be aware that patients who refuse LA can experience higher dental anxiety and therefore may require various pain control strategies for comfort during nonsurgical periodontal therapy, which, if not employed, can lead to less periodontal treatment satisfaction.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the potential association between FADS1 rs174537 polymorphism and serum proteins in patients with aggressive periodontitis, which may provide benefits for diagnosis and treatment of aggressive periodontitis. METHODS: A total of 353 patients with aggressive periodontitis (group AgP) and 125 matched controls (group HP) were recruited in the study. Genotyping of FADS1 rs174537 and serum biochemical indexes were tested at the study's start. The relationships between the levels of TP, GLB, ALB, A/G and genotyping were analyzed. RESULTS: (1) The detection rate of allele G in group AgP was higher than that in group HP(68.1% vs. 61.2%, P=0.046,OR=1.35,95% CI 1.00-1.83); the detection rate of genotype GG in group AgP was higher than in group HP(45.5% vs. 34.4%,P=0.029, OR=1.60, 95% CI 1.05-2.44). (2) In group AgP, the patients with GG genotype exhibited significantly lower TP, GLB than the patients with GT+TT genotype [(77.08 ± 7.88) g/L vs. (79.00 ± 4.66) g/L, P=0.007; (28.17 ± 7.63) g/L vs.(29.88 ± 3.49) g/L,P=0.007) and the higher A/G(1.72 ± 0.22 vs.1.67 ± 0.22, P=0.040), but there was no significant difference in ALB between the patients with GG genotype and the patients with GT+TT genotype. In group HP, there were no significant differences in TP, GLB, A/G and ALB between individuals with genotype GT+TT and with genotype GG. (3)Compared with individuals with genotype GT+TT in group HP, the AgP patients with genotype GT+TT exhibited significantly higher TP, GLB [(79.00 ± 4.66) g/L vs. (75.20 ± 4.53) g/L, P<0.01; (29.88 ± 3.49) g/L vs.(26.55 ± 2.94) g/L, P<0.01) and the lower A/G(1.67 ± 0.22 vs. 1.88 ± 0.30, P<0.01), but there was no significant difference in ALB. There were no significant differences in TP, GLB, A/G and ALB the between the AgP patients with genotype GG and the healthy subjects with the same genotype either. CONCLUSION: FADS1 rs174537 polymorphism is associated with aggressive periodontitis. The patients with genotype GG in group AgP had relatively lower TP,GLB and higher A/G. Genotype GG might be a risk indicator for aggressive periodontitis by reducing host defense capability and contributing to inflammatory response in the occurrence and development of aggressive periodontitis.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the changes of osteoprotegerin (OPG) and receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) level in perio-implant crevicular fluid (PICF) and to monitor the development of the stability of Straumann® tissue-level implants by resonance frequency analysis (RFA) during the early phases of healing. METHODS: A total of 35 implants (length 10 mm) were placed. PICF samples were collected with filter paper strips at baseline, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 weeks post-surgery, respectively. The OPG, RANKL levels were determined by ELISA method. At the same time points, the implant stability quotient (ISQ) values were determined with Osstell™ mentor. RESULTS: During healing, PICF-OPG levels increased significantly 2 weeks after surgery when compared with the 4(th) -, 6(th) -, 8(th) - and 12(th) -week reevaluation (P<0.05). The OPG/RANKL ratio in PICF was significantly higher (P<0.05) than that in gingival crevicular fluid at 1 week post-surgery. ISQ slightly fluctuated within the first 4 weeks after installation. Following this, the ISQ values increased steadily for all the implants and up to 12 weeks. Significant differences were noted between the mean ISQ values at the 12th-week and other observation time points. CONCLUSION: The PICF-OPG levels may be effective in monitoring the process of osseointegration. All the ISQ values indicated the stability of Straumann® implants over a 12-week healing period. RFA is a reliable and effective assistant to monitor implant stability.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the differences of clinical parameters and putative periodontal pathogens in sites of different probing depth (PD) reduction after non-surgical periodontal treatment in patients with aggressive periodontitis (AgP). METHODS: Clinical examinations including plaque index, probing depth (PD), attachment level (AL) and bleeding index (BI), and full-mouth periapical photographs were collected from 20 patients with AgP. All the patients received non-surgical periodontal treatment, including oral hygiene instruction, supra-gingival scaling, subgingival scaling and root planing (SRP) and were followed up for 6 months post-therapy. Gingival crevicular fluids (GCF) were collected at 1 site in each quadrant before and at the end of 6 months post-therapy. Six kinds of putative periodontal pathogens and 6 kinds of short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) were detected in the GCF samples. RESULTS: The baseline clinical parameters of PD, AL and BI, the baseline concentration of succinic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid and butyric acid, and the prevalence of Treponema denticola were significantly higher in sites with PD reduction more than 2 mm sites compared with PD reduction no more than 2 mm sites [(7.7 ± 1.2) mm vs. (5.1 ± 1.8) mm, (6.3 ± 1.9) mm vs. (4.5 ± 2.2) mm, 3.8 ± 0.4 vs. 3.3 ± 0.8, 1.66 mmol/L vs. 1.10 mmol/L, 31.67 mmol/L vs.17.78 mmol/L, 3.31 mmol/L vs.1.95 mmol/L, 84.6% vs. 56.1%, P<0.05]. However, there were no significant differences in the clinical parameters, the 6 kinds of putative periodontal pathogen detection and SCFAs concentration between the 2 groups at the end of 6 months post-treatment. In sites with PD>5 mm at the end of 6 months post-therapy, all were found with red complex bacteria infection. CONCLUSION: The baseline clinical parameters are important factors in predicting PD reduction after non-surgical periodontal treatment in patients with AgP. In sites with deep pockets after non-surgical periodontal treatment, the active control of red complex bacteria is recommended.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms and chronic periodontitis(CP). METHODS: Buccal swabs from 105 patients with mild/mode-rate CP and 85 severe CP were collected, DNA was extracted from these buccal swabs using the TIANamp Swab DNA Kit [TIANGEN Biotech (Beijing) CO.Ltd]. The VDR rs1544410 and rs731236 were genotyped by the Sequenom MassARRAY system (Shanghai Benegene Biotechnology Co. Ltd), which was based on MALDI-TOF (matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight) technology. The distribution of the genotypes and allele frequencies were analyzed. RESULTS: The frequencies of the rs1544410 A allele and AA+AG genotype were significantly higher in severe CP than in mild/moderate CP of all the patients and the female patients respectively (all the patients: P=0.006, 0.007; the female patients: P=0.001, 0.001). The frequencies of the rs731236 C allele and CC+CT genotype were significantly higher in severe CP than in mild/moderate CP of all the patients and the female patients respectively (all the patients: P=0.003, 0.004; the female patients: P<0.001, <0.001). CONCLUSION: Gene polymorphisms of VDR rs731236 and rs1544410 may be associated with severe CP in Chinese Han population.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the serum IgG titers to Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans(Aa) and associated factors in patients with aggressive periodontitis (AgP). METHODS: Venous blood samples were collected from 62 AgP patients and 45 periodontal healthy controls, unstimulated whole saliva and pooled subgingival plaque samples of AgP patients were also collected for the detection of Aa (PCR method). Serum IgG titers to Aa serotype c were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbnent assay (ELISA). RESULTS: The detection rates of serum IgG to Aa serotype c in the AgP patients and the healthy controls were both 100%. The AgP patients exhibited significantly higher IgG titers to Aa serotype c than the healthy controls (11.1±1.9 vs. 9.1±1.8, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in serum IgG levels to Aa serotype c and in the prevalence of high-responding patients to Aa serotype c between the incisor-first molar type AgP patients and generalized AgP patients. Serum IgG titers to Aa serotype c in the Aa-positive AgP patients (the patients who were Aa-positive in subgingival plaque or saliva) were significantly higher than those of the Aa-negative patients (11.9±1.3 vs. 10.7±2.1, P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Serotype c was the main serotype of Aa in Chinese patients with AgP. Serum IgG responses in generalized AgP patients were comparable to those in incisor-first molar type AgP patients.

OBJECTIVE: To isolate and culture human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) and observe its ultrastructure. METHODS: The proliferation and growth characteristics of human periodontal ligament cells were observed in primary culture and colony culture. PDLSCs were isolated by magnetic activated cell sorting (MACS) and ultrastructural characterization was observed by electron microscopy. RESULTS: When the cells were cultured at low density, PDLSCs grew in a colony-like manner. With the exception of a small amount of rough endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes, and mitochondria, relatively few organelles were found in the cytoplasm, suggesting that they had remained undifferentiated. CONCLUSION: PDLSCs showed colony-like growth capacity and had ultrastructural characterization with stem cells. This indicated that PDLSCs could act as the appropriate seed cells for cell-based periodontal tissue regeneration.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the characteristics of establishing the different sample banks of plasma, leukocytes and DNA by sedimentation method of isolating from ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid(EDTA)-blood and to clarify the sedimentation method of leukocyte isolation and plasma volume by comparative data and recommended procedures for applicability. METHODS: In the study, 29 EDTA-bloods were obtained, the total amounts of leukocytes and the percentage of neutrophile granulocytes, and lymphocytes in the EDTA-blood detected as a control group and then assigned equally into 4 EP tubes with 1 mL EDTA-blood per tube as 4 test groups, then the 4 tubes were placed with the EDTA-blood at room temperature and the plasma layers were isolated at 0.5, 1, 2 and 3 h, receptively. The total amount of leukocytes and the percentage of neutrophile granulocytes, and lymphocytes were detected by automated hematology analyzer at the clinical laboratory. The volume of the plasma was also measured at the same time. RESULTS: The plasma volume at 0.5 h [(241.72 ± 101.52)µL] was substantially lower than those at 1 h[(317.24 ± 97.50)µL], at 2 h[(371.03 ± 91.66)µL], and at 3 h [(408.97 ± 97.43)µL] , P < 0.05. The plasma volume at 1 h was substantially lower than those at 2 h and 3 h (P < 0.05). The total amount of leukocytes in the plasma layer at 0.5 h (2.50 × 10(6) ± 1.48 × 10(6)) group was substantially higher than the amount of 2 or 3 h groups respectively (1.47 × 10(6) ± 7.19 × 105,1.21 × 10(6) ± 7.41 × 105), P < 0.05. Significant difference was not found between 0.5 h group and 1 h group (2.29 × 10(6)± 1.17 × 10(6)), P > 0.05. The total amount of leukocytes in the plasma layer in 1 h group was substantially higher than that in 2 h and 3 h groups (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between 3 h group and 2 h group (P > 0.05). The total amount of leukocytes in the plasma layer of the 4 test groups was substantially lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05). The percentage of neutrophile granulocytes (54.14% ± 11.65%) in the plasma layer in 0.5 h group was substantially higher than those in 1 h, 2 h and 3 h groups (46.66% ± 12.70%,39.17% ± 12.33%,43.25% ± 14.54%), P < 0.05, respectively, which was the substantially lower than that in the control group (60.53% ± 8.46%), P < 0.05. The average value of the percentage of neutrophile granulocytes in the plasma layer in 1 h group was substantially higher than that in 2 h group (P < 0.05). There was no significant different between 3 h group and both 1 h, 2 h groups (P > 0.05). The mean percentage of lymphocytes in the plasma layer in 0.5 h group (35.09% ± 10.84%) was substantially lower than those in the plasma layer in 1 h, 2 h and 3 h groups, respectively ( 41.48% ± 12.20%, 47.96% ± 12.27%, 45.50% ± 13.71%), which was significant higher than that in the control group(30.98% ± 7.33%), P < 0.05. The average value of the percentage of lymphocytes in the plasma layer in 1 h group was substantially higher than those in the control group and 0.5 h group, but was substantially lower than those in 2 h and 3 h groups (P < 0.05). The average value of percentage of lymphocytes in the plasma layer in 2 h group was substantially higher than those in the control group, 0.5 h and 1 h groups (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between 2 h and 3 h groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: The best period of time in obtaining leukocytes is 0.5-1 h sedimentation of EDTA-blood. Both the plasma layer and leukocytes can be separated and obtained at the same time from the same sample by the sedimentation method of EDTA-blood. The sedimentation of EDTA-blood has the least interference of both chemical and physical factors, as well as a ready operation, which can establish the plasma, leukocytes and DNA sample banks for various aspects of research.

OBJECTIVE: Short chain fatty acids (SCFAs), such as succinic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, etc. are metabolic product of putative periodontal pathogens, which play significant roles in periodontitis. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis), Treponema denticola (T. denticola), and the concentration of SCFAs in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of patients with aggressive periodontitis (AgP). METHODS: GCF was sampled from 4 sites per individual in 20 patients with AgP and 14 healthy controls. Concentrations of SCFAs, including succinic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, and isovaleric acid in the supernant of GCF were analyzed by high performance capillary electrophoresis (HPCE), P. gingivalis and T. denticola in the deposit of the same GCF were detected by PCR with their electrophoretic band quantified. RESULTS: The concentrations of succinic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, and isovaleric acid, the prevalence and PCR band quantity of P. gingivalis and T. denticola in GCF were all significantly higher in patients with AgP than that of healthy controls. In patients with AgP, butyric acid concentration was significantly higher in P. gingivalis positive sites than negative sites [2.87 (0.99, 4.36) mmol/L vs. 0.33 (0.00, 1.44) mmol/L, P<0.05], the concentrations of succinic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, and isovaleric acid were positively correlated with PCR band quantity of P. gingivalis (r value was 0.334, 0.548, 0.411, 0.493, 0.273, respectively, P<0.05); the concentrations of SCFAs were significantly higher in T. denticola positive sites than negative sites: succinic acid, 1.67 (1.15, 2.11) mmol/L vs. 0.80 (0.48, 1.06) mmol/L; acetic acid, 31.95 (23.77, 43.13) mmol/L vs.12.51 (7.57, 15.69) mmol/L; propionic acid, 11.86 (6.55, 14.98) mmol/L vs. 2.82 (1.71, 7.03) mmol/L; butyric acid, 3.45 (2.41, 4.78) mmol/L vs. 0.54 (0.00, 1.56) mmol/L; isovaleric acid, 2.23 (1.05, 3.85) mmol/L vs. 0.62 (0.00, 2.33) mmol/L. The concentrations of succinic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid were positively correlated with PCR band quantity of T. denticola (r value was 0.443, 0.702, 0.625, 0.557, respectively, P<0.05). CONCLUSION: SCFAs concentrations reflect the quantity of P. gingivalis and T. denticola in patients with AgP, and may be an indicator to the disease progression in patients with AgP.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of periodontal therapy on periodontal clinical index, metabolic control and serum biochemical markers in subjects with type 2 diabetes and chronic periodontitis comprehensively. METHODS: Forty patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic periodontitis were enrolled, and periodontal clinical parameters, HbA1c, fasting blood glucose (FBG) and serum biochemical markers were tested at baseline and 3 months after initial periodontal therapy. RESULTS: The periodontal clinical parameters (PLI, BI,PD,CAL and BOP) improved significantly 3 months after initial periodontal therapy (P<0.001). The HbA1c also decreased statistically (P=0.014), while there was no change in venous fasting blood glucose. Other serum biochemical markers changed significantly including serum phosphor increased, calcium-phosphorus ratio decreased, triglyceride decreased, Apo A1 increased, lipoprotein a decreased, and serum total bilirubin increased. CONCLUSION: The initial periodontal therapy can significantly improve periodontal clinical parameters and HbA1c control, but the effect on venous fasting blood glucose was not revealed yet. In addition, initial periodontal therapy can also intervene serum phosphorus,calcium-phosphorus ratio, and the metabolism of lipid.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of S100A8 on the proliferation and migration of periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs), and to learn the role of S100A8 in the development of periodontitis. METHODS: PDLCs were treated with S100A8 in vitro before MTT and flow cytometry assays were performed. Transwell assay and wound assay were conducted to test the migratory activity of the PDLCs as well. RESULTS: In the study, 10â»7-10â»5 mol/L recombined human S100A8 suppressed the proliferation of the PDLCs, while their proliferation was significantly inhibited with 10â»5 mol/L S100A8 treatment for 48 h. And 10â»9-10â»7 mol/L S100A8 enhanced the migratory activity of the PDLCs while the effect of 10â»9 mol/L S100A8 was statistically significant. CONCLUSION: Increased level of S100A8 in periodontitis could lead to the inhibition of cell proliferation and apoptosis of PDLCs, but S100A8 could promote the migration of PDLCs when its concentration decreased after treatment.

OBJECTIVE: To establish a predictive model for long-term tooth loss of patients with aggressive periodontitis (AgP) after periodontal treatment. METHODS: Patients diagnosed as AgP in Department of Periodontology, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology, who were re-evaluated 3 to 11 years after periodontal treatment were enrolled (n=85). Logistic regression was performed to select background, periodontal and radiographic factors which were related to long-term post-treatment tooth loss. A predictive model was built and analyzed by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve. RESULTS: After periodontal treatment, 55 teeth from 22 patients lost further. High prevalence of baseline bone loss, root abnormality, and residual severe bleeding sites, as well as poor compliance to maintenance were detected as risk factors in the predictive model. ROC analysis found the sensitivity and specificity of the model could reach up to 80% simultaneously. CONCLUSION: Predictive model for post-treatment tooth loss of patients with AgP is an important adjunct in clinical practice.

Background/purpose:There is a two-way relationship between periodontitis and type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study aimed to compare the inflammatory states in serum and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) in periodontitis patients with or without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and healthy subjects. Materials and methods: 20 subjects were systematic and periodontal healthy (H group), 40 subjects were with periodontitis (CP group), and other 40 were with periodontitis and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DC group). Fasting blood glucose (FBG) and HbA1c was tested. GCF and serum level of interleukin (IL) -17, visfatin, receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL)/osteoprotegerin (OPG) ratio were measured. Results: The GCF volume, total amount of IL-17, vastatin, RANKL/OPG ratio in GCF and their concentrations in serum were higher (P < 0.05) in CP and DC groups than in H group, which were also higher (P < 0.05) in DC group than in CP group except for visfatin in GCF and IL-17 in serum. At sample sites of PD ≤ 3 mm, GCF volume, IL-17, visfatin and RANKL/OPG ratio in DC and CP groups were higher (P < 0.05) than that in H group, which were also higher in DC group than in CP group either with PD ≤ 3 mm or PD > 3 mm. Inflammatory state in GCF was positively correlated to systemic inflammation, and both of them were positively correlated to FBG. Conclusion: Moderate and severe periodontitis aggravated systemic inflammation. T2DM together with periodontitis resulted in more severe systemic inflammation. The positive correlation between the periodontal and systemic inflammation and their association with FBG indicated an inflammatory link between periodontitis and T2DM.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To obtain and characterize the single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) aptamers of human recombinant S100A8 protein. METHODS: According to systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) method, an ssDNA random library was subjected to 11 rounds of selection against human recombinant S100A8 protein. Using a biotin-strepavidin-HRP detecting system, the binding capacity of ssDNA to targeted protein from each round was monitored, until the binding level reached a saturation state. Then the ssDNA from the last cycle were cloned and sequenced, and the sequences were further analyzed by programs of bioinformatics. RESULTS: After 11 cycles of selection, 30 clones were selected randomly and sent to sequence analysis. A unique conserved sequence was not obtained among the 30 aptamers by the primary structure analysis, but three aptamers were found identical with three other aptamers respectively. The secondary structure analysis revealed that stem-loop and pocket were the main motifs, indicating that they may play a key role in the binding of aptamers to human recombinant S100A8 protein. According to the ratio of stem-loop to pocket, 30 aptamers were divided into 4 groups, and the affinity of aptamer No. 35 from group I was the highest.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the outcomes of bovine porous bone mineral (BPBM) containing bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP) and BPBM alone in periodontal intra-bony defects. METHODS: In the study, 22 intrabony defects of 9 patients with periodontitis were recruited. All the patients had at least one pair of intrabony defects of ≥3 mm. The split-mouth and single blind methods were used. The defects were randomly assigned to BPBM containing BMP (test) or BPBM alone (control). After debridement, the intrabony defects were treated by bone graft. Assessments at baseline and after 6 months included plaque index, attachment level, probing pocket depth, bleeding indexes on probing and gingival recession. The early wound-healing, adverse effects and patients' perceptions were also recorded. RESULTS: The gain in clinical attachment was (3.0±1.2) mm in the test group and (3.2±1.1) mm in the control group. The pocket reduction was (3.4±1.5) mm in the test group and (2.8±1.0) mm in the control group. The reduction of bleeding index was 1.9±1.3 in the test group and 2.3±0.8 in the control group. There was no statistical difference between the test group and control group (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: Both treatment modalities led to similar significant clinical improvements.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of emdogain, enamel matrix derivative (EMD), on the proliferation, cell cycle, mineralization and ultrastructure of human periodontal ligament (PDL) cells in vitro. METHODS: The influence of cell growth on PDL cells was evaluated by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) in the presence and absence of emdogain, after 1, 3, and 5 d of culture. DNA synthesis and ultrastructure of PDL cells were observed by flow cytometry(FCM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in the presence and absence of emdogain after 3 d of culture. The increasing of osteogenic capacity was verified by the expression changes of osteogenic differentiation markers of bone sialoprotein (BSP) and osteopontin (OPN) in emdogain-treated PDL cells by immunohistochemicl staining. RESULTS: Incubation of PDL cells with emdogain after 3 d significantly stimulated cell growth and DNA synthesis. Emdogain enhanced the osteogenic potential of PDL cells by high expression of osteogenic differentiation markers of BSP and OPN. CONCLUSION: The data indicate that Emdogain enhances cell proliferation and promotes differentiation of PDL cells, which contributes to periodontal tissue regeneration .

OBJECTIVE: This study was to longitudinally evaluate the change of prevalence of five periodontal putative pathogens in the subgingival plaque of artificial class III furcation defects at the three time-points, including before the establishment of furcation defects, before and 6 months after periodontal surgery. METHODS: Eighteen chronic infected class III FI defects were created at the mandibular first molars, second molars and second premolars of three adult male Macaca fascicularis. The samples of subgingival plaque were obtained from the subgingival area of furcation defects in buccal and lingual sites before the establishment of furcation defects, before and 6 months after periodontal surgery. 36 samples were obtained at one time-points. Five periodontal putative pathogens, including Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), Tannerella forsythensis (Tf), Treponema dinticola (Td), Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans (Aa) and Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn), were detected with 16SrRNA based PCR. RESULTS: 1. The prevalence of Pg, Tf, Td and Fn was gradually increased, from 58.3% to 69.4% to 88.9%, 47,2% to 69.4% to 83.3%, 13.9% to 36.1% to 61.1% (P<0.01), and 69.4% to 91.7% to 91.7% (P<0.05), respectively during the experimental period. The prevalence of Fn was higher than Pg, Tf and Td. The prevalence of Aa was the lowest and no obvious difference among the three samplings(from 25.9% to 13.9% to 33.3%)was detected. 2. The prevalence of more than 3 species simultaneously detected was increased from 38.9% to 61.1% to 83.3% (P <0.01). The red complex (Pg + Tf + Td) was detected from 8.3% to 27.8% to 44.4% (P<0.01) at the different time point. 3. The combined detection frequency of red complex in the inflammatory sites (87.5%), which were histologically defined as inflammatory cells infiltrated in furcation area 6 months post-surgery, and the same sites pre-surgery (62.5%) was more than that in pre-creation of furcation defects (P<0.01). But there were no significant differences compared to that in non inflammatory area (60.0%, 40.0%), respectively. CONCLUSION: The prevalence of periodontal pathogenic bacteria correlated with the severity of local inflammation. The increase of coexistent rate of red complex at the second and third sampling times suggests that the red complex play important role in the pathogenesis of periodontitis. Fn may be a resident bacteria in the subgingival plaque, play a bridge role on the biofilm formation and maturation. Aa may not be a major causative bacteria in the clinical periodontitis.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of traditional Chinese medicine, oral rinse of Turkish gall (extracts from Turkish gall) on periodontal and halitosis parameters. METHODS: This single-blinded randomized controlled trial recruited 70 patients with gingivitis or mild to moderate chronic periodontitis. All the patients received the same professional oral hygiene instruction and using toothbrush and fluoride-only paste with same brand and size dispatched by the investigator from baseline to the end. The tested group by oral rinse of Turkish gall on the base of conventional oral hygiene, and control group with conventional oral hygiene only, were assigned randomly at baseline. Then periodontal parameters including Plaque index (PlI), Bleeding index (BI), Probing depth (PD) and Staining index (SI), halitosis index including volatile sulphur compounds (VSCs) by Halimeter, organoleptic score (OS), area of tongue coating (Ta), thickness of tongue coating (Tt), were measured at baseline and two-weeks after. RESULTS: After two weeks, all the periodontal parameters except for SI were significantly improved within each group (P<0.001). As compared to those in control group, the patients in tested group only exhibited significant improvement of PlI after two-week-use of oral rinse of Turkish gall (P<0.05). Though values of OS and Tt in tested group, OS only in control group, decreased significantly (P<0.05) respectively after two weeks, there were no statistical difference on the improvement of halitosis parameters. CONCLUSION: For untreated patients with gingivitis and periodontitis, oral rinse of Turkish gall displayed significant inhibition of dental plaque, while no predominated effect on halitosis when compared to correct conventional plaque control methods.
