RESUMO
AIM: This double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study compared multiple applications of the antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) treatment protocol, to systemic doxycycline as adjuvant to scaling and root planing (SRP) on type 2 diabetic patients on clinical, systemic and immune-inflammatory outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty patients with Hba1c >7% were allocated in two groups, SRP + Doxy (n = 15) using systemic doxycycline 100 mg/day (14 days) and SRP + aPDT (n = 15) with multiple applications (0, 3, 7 and 14 days). Primary outcome was glycated haemoglobin levels (HbA1c). Clinical parameters: plaque score (PS), bleeding on probe, probing depth, suppuration, gingival recession, and clinical attachment level, percentage of pockets with desired clinical endpoint were measured at baseline and 3 months after therapy. Cytokine profile was assessed at 0, 1 and 3 month to measure IL1-ß, TNF-α and TGF-ß on gingival crevicular fluid. RESULTS: No significant difference was detected on HbA1c, between treatments. The SRP + aPDT group showed advantage on reducing moderate pockets in single-rooted teeth at 3 months. SRP + aPDT presented better results at 3 months on IL1-ß levels. There were no significant differences between TNF-α and TGF-ß. CONCLUSIONS: Both treatments improved clinical and systemic outcomes (Hba1c). SRP + aPDT performed better in moderate probing pocket depth on single-rooted teeth, reduced favourably inflammation in short term, and may be an alternative to systemic antibiotics.

The aim of this study was to investigate the adjunctive effect of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) to scaling and root planing (SRP) in smokers with chronic periodontitis. Twenty subjects had two contralateral teeth randomly assigned to receive SRP (SRP group) or SRP + a single episode of aPDT (SRP + aPDT group), with a diode laser and a phenothiazine photosensitizer. Plaque index, bleeding on probing, probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), and gingival recession were recorded, and gingival crevicular fluid was collected for assay of IL-1ß and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-8 levels. There was a significant PD reduction (SRP 1.81 ± 0.52 mm/SRP + aPDT 1.58 ± 1.28 mm; p < 0.001) and a significant CAL gain (SRP 1.60 ± 0.92 mm/SRP + aPDT 1.41 ± 1.58 mm; p < 0.001) for both groups. Significant differences were not observed in between-group comparisons. IL-1ß level in gingival crevicular fluid was higher in SRP group after 1 week (SRP 24.65 ± 18.85 pg/µL/SRP + aPDT 34.07 ± 24.81 pg/µL; p = 0.048), and MMP-8 level was higher in SRP group after 12 weeks (SRP 303.31 ± 331.62 pg/µL/SRP + aPDT 534.23 ± 647.37 pg/µL; p = 0.024). There were no statistically significant differences in intragroup comparisons. The adjunctive effect of aPDT did not warrant improvements on clinical parameters in smokers. However, it resulted in a suppression of IL-1ß and MMP-8 when compared with SRP alone.

BACKGROUND: Studies suggest that smokers present more or greater numbers of potential periodontal pathogens than non-smokers. The aim of this study was to investigate the microbiologic effects of adjunctive aPDT on nonsurgical periodontal treatment in smokers with chronic periodontitis (CP). METHODS: Twenty smokers with CP had two contralateral teeth randomly assigned in a split-mouth design to receive SRP (CG) or SRP + a single episode of aPDT (TG), with a diode laser and a phenothiazine photosensitizer. Levels of 40 subgingival species were measured using checkerboard DNA-DNA hybridization at baseline and 1, 4 and 12 weeks after periodontal treatment. RESULTS: All 40 bacterial species evaluated were detected in different levels at baseline, with no statistic significant differences between groups. After periodontal treatment, the levels of some bacterial species decreased, while some other species presented an increase. Despite this variation, the statistical analysis was not able to identify significant differences neither at intragroup nor at intergroup comparisons. CONCLUSION: Periodontal treatment with SRP or SRP + aPDT was not able to reduce levels of 40 subgingival species in smokers with CP. These outcomes indicate that smoking impairs periodontal healing after nonsurgical treatment even associated with aPDT.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this randomized controlled clinical study is to investigate whether a modified surgical technique could provide better results for root coverage and greater amounts of keratinized tissue (KT) with the acellular dermal matrix graft (ADMG). METHODS: Fifteen bilateral Miller Class I or II gingival recessions (GRs) were selected. The recessions were treated and assigned randomly to the test group (TG), and the contralateral recessions were assigned to the control group (CG). The ADMG was used in both groups with differences in the graft positioning between them. The following clinical parameters were measured before the surgeries and after 12 months: 1) probing depth; 2) relative clinical attachment level; 3) GR; 4) thickness of KT (TKT); and 5) KT width. A new parameter, the GR area (GRA), was measured in standardized photographs using a special device and software. RESULTS: There was no significant difference between groups in KT width and TKT parameters at the 12-month postoperative period. However, there was a significant difference between the gains in GR (ΔGR) and GRA (ΔGRA), favoring the TG after 12 months. The TG presented ΔGR = 3.04 ± 0.29 mm and ΔGRA= 38,919 ± 9,238 pixel square values (pix(2)), and the CG presented ΔGR= 2.61 ± 0.41 mm and ΔGRA= 22,245 ± 9,334 pix(2) (P <0.05 and <0.001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Both techniques were successful. The TG treatment was more effective in reducing GR and GRA. The flap and graft position may be of importance in root coverage procedures outcome.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the buccal bone plate remodeling after immediate implantation using the flapless approach with or without bone graft into the gap between the implant and the buccal bone. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Eight dogs had the mandibular bicuspids extracted without flaps, and four implants were installed on each side, totaling eight implants per animal. Randomly, in one side, the implants were positioned at the bone crest level (equicrestal), and on the opposite side, the implants were positioned 2 mm subcrestal. All the implants were positioned 2.0 mm from the buccal bone plate (gap) and associated or not with grafting material. Therefore, the following treatments were performed: implants subcrestal test (SCTG) with bone graft and control (SCCG) without bone graft, and equicrestal test (ECTG) with bone graft and control (ECCG) without bone graft. One week following the surgeries, metallic prostheses were installed. Bone markers were administered 1, 2, 4, and 12 weeks after implant placement for fluorescence analysis. Ground sections were prepared from 12-week healing biopsies, and histomorphometry was performed. RESULTS: The histomorphometric evaluation presents significant better results for the ECTG in the vertical crestal bone resorption, but the other parameters showed better results for the SCCG. The fluorescence evaluation in adjacent areas showed numerically different results between groups with a small decrease at 12 weeks, except for the SCCG, which was higher at this time. The distant area showed a continuous increase in the marked bone. CONCLUSION: The equicrestally placed implants presented little or no loss of the buccal bone wall. The subcrestally positioned implants presented loss of buccal bone, regardless of the use of bone graft. However, the buccal bone was always coronal to the implant shoulder. Both the equicrestal and subcrestal groups were benefited in the early stages of bone healing as evidenced by the fluorescence analysis.

The association of doxycycline and periodontal treatment in non-controlled diabetes mellitus (DM) has shown positive results on clinical and metabolic parameters. Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is a local and painless antimicrobial treatment that can be applied in periodontal treatment without systemic risks. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential improvement of aPDT on clinical and metabolic effects in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in conjunction with nonsurgical periodontal treatment plus doxycycline. Thirty patients with type 2 diabetes and diagnosis of chronic periodontitis were treated with scaling and root planning (SRP; N = 15) or SRP plus phenothiazine chloride photosensitizer-induced aPDT (SRP + aPDT, N = 15). Patients of both groups took doxycycline (100 mg/day) for 2 weeks and plaque index, bleeding on probe (BOP), probing pocket depth (PPD), suppuration, clinical attachment level (CAL), and glycated hemoglobin levels (HbA1c) were measured at baseline and 3 months after therapy. An improvement in clinical parameters such as PPD, CAL, S, and BOP between groups was observed but without statistical significance (p > 0.05). Intragroup analysis showed a significant reduction of HbA1c (8.5 ± 0.9 to 7.5 ± 0.1, p < 0.01) in the SRP + aPDT group. The differences of HbA1c between baseline and 3 months were greater for the SRP + aPDT (11.4 %) than SRP (10 %) (0.87 ± 0.9 and 0.4 ± 0.84 respectively; p < 0.05). A single application of the aPDT as an adjunct to periodontal treatment did not show additional benefits in the clinical parameters but resulted in a slight greater decrease in HbA1c.

In a previous study in dogs, the early removal of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) membrane (2 weeks after placement) showed histomorphometric results (of new bone, cementum and periodontal ligament) similar to that obtained with membrane removal at 4 weeks after placement. This study evaluated the influence of early removal of an ePTFE membrane on the treatment of Class II furcation defects. Twelve patients who provided 12 pairs of mandibular furcation defects were recruited for the study. Baseline clinical measurements were recorded: plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), bleeding on probing (BOP), probing depth (PD), gingival margin position (GMP) and relative clinical attachment level (RCAL). Full flaps were elevated and hard tissue measurements were performed during the surgery: relative vertical (RVBL) and horizontal (RHBL) bone level. The ePTFE membranes were adapted and sutured to their correspondent tooth and removed at 2 weeks in the test group (TGr) and at 4 weeks in the control group (CGr). After 1 year all sites were re-entered, and soft and hard tissue measurements were recorded. There were no statistically significant differences between TGr and CGr for any baseline measurement. After 12 months, there were no statistically significant differences between TGr and CGr in the PD (p=0.74), GMP (p=0.76) and RCAL (p=0.44) values. However, the RHBL resolution was significant for both groups (CGr p=0.01 and TGr p=0.02), without difference between groups (p=0.39). Early removal of membranes did not affect the outcome on the treatment of Class II furcation defects.

BACKGROUND: This study has evaluated the effect of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) used in conjunction with non-surgical and surgical periodontal treatment (PT) in modulating gene expression during periodontal wound healing. METHODS: Fifteen patients with chronic periodontitis, presenting bilaterally lower molars with class III furcation lesions and scheduled for extraction, were selected. In initial therapy, scaling and root planing (SRP) was performed in the Control Group (CG), while SRP+aPDT were performed in the Test Group (TG). 45days later, flap surgery plus SRP, and flap surgery plus SRP+aPDT were performed in the CG and TG, respectively. At 21days post-surgery, the newly formed granulation tissue was collected, and Real-time PCR evaluated the expression of the genes: tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1ß, interleukin-4, interleukin-10, matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2), osteoprotegerin (OPG), receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL), type I collagen, alkaline phosphatase, osteopontin, osteocalcin, and bone sialoprotein. RESULTS: There were statistically significant differences between the groups in relation to mRNA levels for MMP-2 (TG=3.26±0.89; CG=4.23±0.97; p=0.01), TIMP-2/MMP-2 ratio (TG=0.91±0.34; CG=0.73±0.32; p=0.04), OPG (TG=0.84±0.45; CG=0.30±0.26; p=0.001), and OPG/RANKL ratio (TG=0.60±0.86; CG=0.23±0.16; p=0.04), favoring the TG. CONCLUSION: The present data suggest that the aPDT associated to nonsurgical and surgical periodontal therapy may modulate the extracellular matrix and bone remodeling by up regulating the TIMP- 2/MMP-2 and OPG/RANKL mRNA ratio, but the clinical relevance needs to be evaluated in further studies.

Intrabony periodontal defects present a particular treatment problem, especially in patients with generalized aggressive periodontitis (G-AgP). Regenerative procedures have been indicated for this clinical situation. The aim of this study was to compare treatment outcomes of intrabony periodontal defects with either anorganic bone matrix/cell binding peptide (ABM/P-15) or guided tissue regeneration (GTR) in patients with G-AgP. Fifteen patients, with two intrabony defects ≥3 mm deep, were selected. Patients were randomly allocated to be treated with ABM/P-15 or GTR. At baseline and at 3 and 6 months after surgery, clinical and radiographic parameters and IL-1ß and IL-6 gingival fluid concentrations were recorded. There was a significant probing pocket depth reduction (p<0.001) for both groups (2.27 ± 0.96 mm for ABM/P-15 group and 2.57 ± 1.06 mm for GTR group). Clinical attachment level gain (1.87 ± 0.94 mm for ABM/P-15 group and 2.09 ± 0.88 mm for GTR group) was also observed. There were no statistically significant differences in clinical parameters between the groups. The radiographic bone fill was more expressive in ABM/P-15 group (2.49 mm) than in GTR group (0.73 mm). In subtraction radiographs, the areas representing gain in density were 93.16% of the baseline defect for ABM/P-15 group versus 62.03% in GRT group. There were no statistically significant differences in inter-group and intra-group comparisons with regards to IL-1ß and IL-6 quantification. Treatment of intrabony periodontal defects in patients with G-AgP with ABM/P-15 and GTR improved significantly the clinical outcomes. The use of ABM/P-15 promoted a better radiographic bone fill.

Em estudo prévio, em cães, a remoção precoce da membrana de politetrafluoretileno expandido (PTFE-e), 2 semanas após a colocação, mostrou resultados histomorfométricos (formação de novo osso, cemento e ligamento periodontal) similares aos de remoção da membrana 4 semanas após a sua colocação. Este estudo avaliou a influência da remoção precoce de uma membrana de PTFE-e no tratamento de defeitos de bifurcação classe II. Foram selecionados para o estudo 12 pacientes, com 12 pares de defeitos de bifurcação mandibulares. Foram feitas as seguintes medidas clínicas iniciais: índice de placa (IP), índice gingival (IG), sangramento à sondagem (SAS), profundidade de sondagem (PS), posição da margem gingival (PMG) e nível relativo da inserção clínica (NRIC). Foram elevados retalhos totais e as medidas do tecido ósseo foram tomadas transcirurgicamente: níveis ósseos vertical (NOV) e horizontal (NOH). Membranas de PTFE-e foram adaptadas e suturadas aos dentes correspondentes e removidas após 2 semanas no grupos teste (GT) ou quatro semanas no grupo controle (GC). Após 1 ano, em todos os sites foi realizada reentrada cirúrgica e medidas clínicas e ósseas foram novamente feitas. Não houve diferenças estatisticamente significantes entre GT e GC para nenhuma das medidas iniciais avaliadas. Após 12 meses, não houve diferenças estatisticamente significantes entre GT e GC para os valores de PS (p=0,74), PMG (p=0,76) e NRIC (p=0,44). Entretanto, a resolução do nível ósseo horizontal foi significante para ambos os grupos (GC: p=0,01 e GT: p=0,02), sem diferenças entre grupos (p=0,39). A remoção precoce da membrana não afetou os resultados do tratamento de defeitos de bifurcação Classe II.

Defeitos periodontais infra-ósseos representam um desafio particular no tratamento, especialmente em pacientes com periodontite agressiva generalizada (PAg-G). Procedimentos regenerativos tem sido indicados para esta situação clínica. O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar os resultados do tratamento de defeitos periodontais infra-ósseos com associação de matriz óssea inorgânica bovina com o P-15 (MOI/P-15) ou regeneração tecidual guiada (RTG) em pacientes com PAg-G. 15 pacientes com PAg-G, com pelo menos dois defeitos periodontais infra-ósseos (profundidade de sondagem ≥4 mm e componente infra-ósseo ≥3 mm) foram selecionados. Os pacientes foram aleatoriamente alocados para serem tratados com MOI/P-15 ou RTG. No exame inicial, e aos 3 e 6 meses após a cirurgia, os parâmetros clínicos e radiográficos e as concentrações de IL-1β e IL-6 no fluido gengival foram registrados. Houve uma redução significativa profundidade de sondagem (p<0,001) para ambos os grupos (2,27 ± 0,96 mm para o grupo MOI/P-15 e 2,57 ± 1,06 mm para o grupo RTG). Um ganho no nível clínico de inserção (1,87 ± 0,94 mm para o grupo MOI/P-15 e 2,09 ± 0,88 mm para o grupo RTG) também foi observado. Na comparação entre grupos, não houve diferenças estatisticamente significativas nos parâmetros clínicos. O preenchimento ósseo radiográfico foi mais expressivo no grupo MOI/P-15 (2,49 mm) do que no grupo RTG (0,73 mm). Na análise radiográfica, as radiografias de subtração apresentaram ganho médio de área radiopaca em relação ao defeito inicial de 93,16% para grupo MOI/P-15, contra 62,03% para o grupo RTG. Na análise das citocinas, não foram observadas diferenças estatisticamente significantes nas comparações intra e entre os grupos. O tratamento de defeitos infra-ósseos com MOI/P-15 ou RTG em pacientes com PAg-G, em um período de 6 meses, levou a melhoras nos parâmetros clínicos. O uso de MOI/P-15 levou a um maior preenchimento radiográfico.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has been proposed as an adjunctive therapy to scaling and root planing (SRP). The transforming growth factor-ß1 (TGF-ß) has been considered as an anti-inflammatory cytokine, and its levels in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) could monitor the periodontal repair. This study evaluated the adjunct effect of aPDT compared with SRP, analyzing the TGF-ß levels in GCF after nonsurgical and surgical therapy in chronic periodontitis patients. METHODS: Fifteen patients, presenting bilaterally lower molars with class III furcation lesions, were selected. Each pair of teeth was randomly assigned to a control group (CG) or test group (TG). Initially, SRP was performed in the CG, and SRP + aPDT in the TG. Forty-five days later, flap surgery plus SRP, and flap surgery plus SRP + aPDT were performed in CG and TG, respectively. GCF was collected and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test was conducted to determine the amount and concentration of TGF-ß in the GCF at baseline, 45 days post-initial therapy, and 21 days after surgery. RESULTS: Statistically significant differences between groups were found in relation to GCF volume 21 days after the surgical procedures (p=0.03) and TGF-ß concentration in GCF 45 days post-initial therapy (p=0.04), favoring the TG. CONCLUSIONS: There was an additional effect of the aPDT protocol compared with SRP for the TGF-ß concentration in GCF 45 days after nonsurgical therapy, and for the GCF volume 21 days after surgical therapy.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate buccal bone remodeling of fresh sockets following tooth extraction using the flapless approach, with or without synthetic graft materials. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Eight dogs had the mandibular bicuspids extracted without flaps, and two alveoli on each side (total of 4) were selected. The following groups were devised: one socket on each side received a grafting material (test group), and the other remained only with a blood clot (control group). Ground sections were prepared from 12-week healing biopsies, and histomorphometry was performed. RESULTS: The buccal crest level (BCL) relative to the new bone (i), in the test group, showed numerically better data when compared with the control group, but without statistical relevance. The BCL relative to the old bone (ii) was very similar for the groups without statistical relevance. The alveolar ridge width (ARW) showed similar results without statistically significant difference between the groups. The total bone area (TBA) showed statistically significant differences between the test (38.60%) and control (47.18%) groups. The new bone area (NBA) presents a numerical difference between the test (15.62%) and control (22.24%), but without statistically significant differences. The old bone and the bone marrow were similar for both groups. CONCLUSION: It was observed that there was no loss of the buccal bone crest in relation to the lingual bone crest, especially in the test group.

The objective of this study was to evaluate histomorphometrically, in dogs, the effect of enamel matrix derivative (EMD), with or without transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1), in a periodontal Class III furcation model. Class III furcation defects were created in P3 and P4 of six dogs. The defects were allowed to stabilize for 21 days. Four experimental conditions were established: G1: control (propylene glycol alginate); G2: EMD; G3: TGF-beta1 and G4: EMD + TGF-beta1. After 12 weeks, the dogs were euthanized. Their jaws were removed, fixed, decalcified, dehydrated and embedded in paraffin. Semi-serial sections were obtained, stained and examined with light microscopy. The furcation defects were not completely closed in any specimen, with downgrowth of the junctional epithelium into the furcation area. The morphologic characteristics of the newly formed tissues in the test groups were similar to the control group, with slight differences in average values, but with no statistically significant differences between the groups. This study was not able to provide histological evidence that EMD, TGF-beta1 and EMD + TGF-beta1 present additional advantages in periodontal bone formation in a Class III furcation model in dogs.

AIM: This randomized, controlled, clinical study compared two surgical techniques for root coverage with the acellular dermal matrix graft (ADMG) to evaluate which procedure could provide better root coverage and greater amounts of keratinized tissue. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fifteen pairs of bilateral Miller Class I or II gingival recessions were treated and assigned randomly to the test group, and the contra-lateral recessions were assigned to the control group. The ADMG was used in both groups. In the control group, the graft and flap were positioned at the level of the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ), and in the test group, the graft was positioned 1 mm apical to the CEJ and the flap 1 mm coronal to the CEJ. The clinical parameters were taken before the surgeries and after 6 months. The gingival recession area, a new parameter, was measured in standardized photographs through a special device and software. RESULTS: There were statistically significant differences favouring the proposed technique for all parameters except for the amount of keratinized tissue at 6 months. CONCLUSIONS: The proposed test technique is more suitable for root coverage procedures with ADMG, and the new parameter evaluated appears valuable for root coverage analysis.

Smokers have small root coverage which is associated with bad vascularity of periodontal tissues. This study evaluated a technique that can increase the blood supply to the periodontal tissues compared with a traditional technique. Twenty heavy smokers (10 males and 10 females) with two bilateral Miller class I gingival recessions received coronally positioned flaps in one side (Control group)and extended flap technique in the other side (Test group). Clinical measurements (probing pocket depth, clinical attachment level, bleeding on probing, gingival recession height, gingival recession width, amount of keratinized tissue, and width and height of the papillae adjacent to the recession) were determined at baseline, 3 and 6 months postoperatively. Salivary cotinina samples were taken as an indicator of the nicotine exposure level. No statistically significant differences (p>0.05) were detected for the clinical measurements or smoke exposure. Both techniques promoted low root coverage (Control group: 43.18% and Test group: 44.52%). In conclusion, no difference was found in root coverage between the techniques. Root coverage is possible and uneventful even, if rather low, in heavy smoker patients with low plaque and bleeding indices.

Recent studies in animals have shown pronounced resorption of the buccal bone plate after immediate implantation. The use of flapless surgical procedures prior to the installation of immediate implants, as well as the use of synthetic bone graft in the gaps represent viable alternatives to minimize buccal bone resorption and to favor osseointegration. The aim of this study was to evaluate the healing of the buccal bone plate following immediate implantation using the flapless approach, and to compare this process with sites in which a synthetic bone graft was or was not inserted into the gap between the implant and the buccal bone plate. Lower bicuspids from 8 dogs were bilaterally extracted without the use of flaps, and 4 implants were installed in the alveoli in each side of the mandible and were positioned 2.0 mm from the buccal bone plate (gap). Four groups were devised: 2.0-mm subcrestal implants (3.3 × 8 mm) using bone grafts (SCTG), 2.0-mm subcrestal implants without bone grafts (SCCG), equicrestal implants (3.3 × 10 mm) with bone grafts (ECTG), and equicrestal implants without bone grafts (ECCG). One week following the surgical procedures, metallic prostheses were installed, and within 12 weeks the dogs were sacrificed. The blocks containing the individual implants were turned sideways, and radiographic imaging was obtained to analyze the remodeling of the buccal bone plate. In the analysis of the resulting distance between the implant shoulder and the bone crest, statistically significant differences were found in the SCTG when compared to the ECTG (P = .02) and ECCG (P = .03). For mean value comparison of the resulting linear distance between the implant surface and the buccal plate, no statistically significant difference was found among all groups (P > .05). The same result was observed in the parameter for presence or absence of tissue formation between the implant surface and buccal plate. Equicrestally placed implants, in this methodology, presented little or no loss of the buccal bone. The subcrestally positioned implants presented loss of buccal bone, even though synthetic bone graft was used. The buccal bone, however, was always coronal to the implant shoulder.

Fumantes apresentam resultados ruins no recobrimento radicular, o que pode estar relacionado à má vascularização dos tecidos periodontais. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar uma técnica que pode aumentar a nutrição do tecido periodontal, comparando com uma técnica tradicional.Vinte fumantes pesados (10 homens e 10 mulheres) apresentando duas retrações bilaterais classe I de Miller receberam recobrimento radicular pela técnica de retalho posicionado coronalmente de um lado e pela técnica do retalho estendido no outro lado. Medidas clínicas (profundidade de sondagem, nível clínico de inserção, sangramento a sondagem, altura e largura da retração gengival, quantidade de tecido queratinizado, altura e largura das papilas dos dentes adjacentes a retração gengival)foram realizadas no início do estudo, 3 e 6 meses de pós-operatório. Amostras salivares foram feitas para detectar cotinina, um indicador do nível de exposição ao fumo. Não foram detectadas diferenças estatisticamente significantes (p>0,05) para os parâmetros clínicos ou exposição ao fumo. Ambas as técnicas tiveram baixo recobrimento radicular (controle: 43,18 por cento e teste: 44,52 por cento). Nenhuma diferença estatisticamente significante foi encontrada para o recobrimento radicular entre as técnicas. Em pacientes fumantes pesados com baixo índice de placa e de sangramento gengival o recobrimento radicular é possível e comum, no entanto, o recobrimento é parcial.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of a single application of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) on microbiological profile and cytokine pattern in dogs. Periodontal disease was induced by placing 3.0 silk ligatures around the mandibular pre-molars bilaterally during 8 weeks. The dogs were randomly treated with aPDT using a dye/laser system, scaling and root planning (SRP), or with the association of treatments (SRP + aPDT). Plaque samples were collected at baseline, 1, 3, and 4 weeks, and the mean counts of 40 species were determined using DNA-DNA hybridization. Gingival biopsies were removed and the expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), receptor activator of NF-kB ligand (RANKL), osteoprotegerin (OPG), matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-1), interleukin (IL) 6, IL-10 and total bacterial load by analysis of 16 S rRNA gene were evaluated through real-time PCR. The results shows that the levels of the majority of the species were reduced 1 week post-therapy for all treatments, however, an increase in counts of Prevotella intermedia (p = 0.00), Prevotella. nigrescens (p = 0.00) and Tannerella forsythia (p = 0.00) was observed for aPDT and SRP + aPDT. After 4 weeks, a regrowth of Porphyromonas gingivalis (p = 0.00) and Treponema denticola (p = 0.00), was observed for all treatments. Also, a strikingly reduction of counts on counts of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans was observed for the aPDT (p = 0.00). For the cytokine pattern, the results were similar for all treatments, and a reduction in the expression of cytokines and bacterial load was observed throughout the study. Our results suggest that SRP, aPDT in a single application, and SRP + aPDT affects different bacterial species and have similar effects on the expression of cytokines evaluated during the treatment of ligature-induced periodontitis.

BACKGROUND: Tissue engineering principles could improve the incorporation of acellular dermal matrix (ADM). The aim of this study is to verify if ADM is a suitable three-dimensional matrix for gingival fibroblasts and cancerous cells ingrowth, and also if cultured medium conditioned in ADM affect cellular behavior. METHODS: Canine gingival fibroblasts (CGF), human gingival fibroblasts (HGF), and murine melanoma cell line (B16F10) were seeded on ADM for up to 14 days. The following parameters were assessed: morphology and distribution of CGF, HGF, and B16F10; CGF and HGF viability; and the effect of ADM conditioned medium (CM) on CGF viability. RESULTS: Epifluorescence revealed that CGF were unevenly distributed on the ADM surface, showing no increase in cell number over the periods of study; HGF formed a monolayer on the ADM surface in a higher number at 14 days (P <0.05); B16F10 exhibited an increase in cell number within 7 days (P <0.05), and were mainly arranged in cell aggregates on the ADM, forming a continuous layer at 14 days. A higher percentage of cells on the ADM surface (P <0.05) compared to inside was observed for all cell types. 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) values indicated higher cell viability in samples cultured with HGF compared to CGF (P = 0.024). A significantly lower cell viability for CGF grown in CM compared to cells grown in non-CM was observed at 48 and 72 hours (P <0.05). CONCLUSIONS: ADM is not suitable as a three-dimensional matrix for gingival fibroblasts ingrowth. Gingival fibroblasts and highly proliferative cells as B16F10 can only be superficially located on ADM, and CGF are negatively affected by culture medium conditioned in ADM, reducing its viability.
