RESUMEN
Objective: To observe the therapeutic effects of bracketless and invisible orthodontic treatment on periodontitis, as well as on gingival crevicular fluid and serum interleukin-6 (IL-6), matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) and tumors. The impact of necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) levels fills the current knowledge gap regarding the impact of different orthodontic treatment modalities on biomarker levels in periodontitis patients. Methods: 100 patients with malocclusion secondary to periodontitis were selected as subjects.They were divided into a control group (n=50) and a study group (n=50) according to the random number method. The control group was treated with a straight wire appliances, and the study group was given bracketless and invisible orthodontic treatment. Clinical effects, Periodontal indicators [plaque index (PLI), gingival crevicular bleeding index (SBI), gingival index (GI), periodontal pocket probe depth (PD), clinical attachment loss (CAL)], gingival crevicular fluid and serum IL-6, MMP-8 and TNF-α levels and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. The uniqueness of this method is that it compares the impact of traditional straight-wire orthodontic treatment and invisible orthodontic treatment without brackets on biomarker levels and clinical effects in patients with periodontitis. In order to understand the role of orthodontic treatment methods in Provides useful information for use in periodontitis treatment. Results: The main findings of this study highlight the significant impact of bracketless clear braces in improving periodontal indicators and cytokine levels. Patients treated with bracketless clear braces demonstrate better clinical outcomes in periodontitis treatment compared with traditional straight-wire orthodontic treatment. The response rate of the study group was higher than that of the control group (94.00% vs. 72.00%) (P < .05). After 2 years of treatment, PLT, SBI, GI, PD and CAL were decreased in both groups and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group (P < .05). After 6 months of treatment, the levels of IL-6, MMP-8 and TNF-α in gingival crevicular fluid and serum were decreased in both groups, and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group (P < .05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups (P > .05). Conclusion: The treatment of periodontitis without brackets has a significant effect, which can improve the periodontal condition and reduce the levels of IL-6, MMP-8 and TNF-α in gingival crevicular fluid and serum. Bracketless invisible braces have shown potential clinical significance in improving periodontal indicators and cytokine levels in patients with periodontitis, providing support for providing more comfortable and effective orthodontic treatment options, which may help promote patients' Oral health. These findings suggest the positive role of bracketless invisible braces in comprehensive periodontal treatment, which is expected to influence the practice of orthodontics and periodontal treatment and improve patient treatment experience and effects.
