RESUMO
Recently, a specifically designed device was proposed that is able to nebulize particles with a diameter of approximately 16 micrometres to be used mainly in the management of diseases of the upper airway respiratory tract. The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the potential efficacy of nebulized hyaluronic acid in the management of gingivitis. The results of the statistical analysis demonstrate that there was no difference between the pocket depth as measured in the treated sites at time 0 (pre-treatment) and time 1 (15 days post-treatment). However, the difference between bleeding on probing as measured at time 0 and time 1 indicated an improvement on both sides, with a slightly greater improvement on the side treated with HA.

In recent years, with an increase in the number of implants, there has been a related increase in cases of pathologies related to infections around the implant site and on the implant surface i.e. mucositis and peri-implantitis. The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the potential efficacy of nebulized hyaluronic acid in the management of mucositis. The results of the statistical analysis demonstrate that there was no difference between the pocket depth as measured in the treated sites at time 0 (pre-treatment) and time 1 (15 days weeks post-treatment). However, the difference between bleeding on probing as measured at time 0 and time 1 indicated an improvement on both sides, with a slightly greater improvement on the side treated with HA.

The emollient and restructuring action exerted on the mucous membranes by hyaluronic acid is of particular significance. This is thanks to its reparative (it stimulates angiogenesis) and soothing properties (hyaluronic acid is used in wound care to improve the processes of wound healing), which are effective in treating the symptoms of local inflammation and irritation. The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the potential efficacy of nebulized hyaluronic acid in the management of chronic periodontitis in adults. The results of the statistical analysis demonstrate that there was a slight improvement in the measurement of pocket depth in the side treated with HA at time 0 (pre-treatment) and time 1 (15 days post-treatment). Furthermore, the difference between bleeding on probing as measured at time 0 and time 1 indicated an improvement on both sides, with a slightly greater improvement on the side treated with HA.

It is well known in dentistry that there are numerous chronic conditions that require ongoing and constant management over time, the most noteworthy being periodontal disease, gingivitis and periodontitis. Yet, in recent years, with the increase in the number of implants being placed, mucositis and peri-implantitis have become more and more prevalent pathologies. The results of the statistical analysis demonstrate that there was a slight difference between the pocket depth as measured in the treated sites at time 0 (pre-treatment) and time 1 (15 days post-treatment), although the difference was so small as to render it statistically irrelevant. Bleeding on probing as measured at time 0 and time 1 indicated an improvement on both sides, but with no greater improvement noted on the side treated with HA.

Some graft materials such as a heterologous porcine cortical lamina have an excellent capacity in creating recipient sites that can be filled with cortico-spongious collagenated bone paste that reabsorbs, allowing for the reformation of good-quality bone. In this work a technique is proposed which makes use of resorbable cortical lamina in order to create a new sinus floor that can be filled with cortico-spongious bone paste. The adequate vascularisation of the graft combined with the integration of the lamina, which does not need to be removed, makes it possible to propose this technique as a potential alternative to those used so far.
