About this study

Official title: Effect of Non-surgical Periodontal Treatment on Pregnant Women With Periodontitis: a Randomized Clinical Trial

Objective: The objective of this research was to compare the effect of a single session supragingival scaling in a group of pregnant women with periodontal disease with a group that received supra and subgingival scaling.

Methods: The investigators included 34 pregnant women between 15 and 43 who had at least 4 teeth with probing depth ≥ 4 mm or clinical attachment loss ≥ 3 mm, with bleeding on probing in the same place. Women were divided into two groups, the group 1 received supra and subgingival scaling associated with oral hygiene orientation (OHO) and the group 2 received only supragingival scaling with OHO too.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Effect of non-surgical periodontal treatment in pregnancy with periodontal disease

    A single calibrated examiner performed clinical examination in pregnant women participating in the measurement of parameters: probing depth, clinical attachment level, hyperplasia, recession, bleeding, presence of plaque and tooth mobility on a standardized form.

    Quantitative parameters were evaluated at six sites per tooth: mesio/medium/ distobuccal and mesio/medium/distolingual through millimeter periodontal probe-type Williams. The bleeding and the presence of plaque in dichotomous variables were measured: present and absent. All patients received oral hygiene orientation (OHO).

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Effect of non-surgical periodontal treatment in pregnancy with periodontitis

    The patients were randomly divided by lottery into two groups. The group 1, termed SUPRA/SUB received OHO, supra and subgingival scraping and the group 2: SUPRA supragingival scraping and OHO. In both groups, the scaling procedure was performed using periodontal curettes type Mc Call 13-14 and 17-18 (DUFLEX) in one session.

    Within 30 days after the initial session scraping clinical parameters were reevaluated, and now, according to every need, the patients were submitted to the supra and subgingival therapy. Noting that full dental care was provided to participants.

    Measured: Assess periodontal disease at times: initial (when pregnancy arrived) and final (30 days after periodontal therapy).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Supra/subgingival scaling using periodontal curette scraping and Supra and subgingival scaling in people with Periodontal Diseases and Adverse Effects, run by Universidade Federal do Maranhão.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Feb 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effect of non-surgical periodontal treatment in pregnancy with periodontal disease (time frame: 30 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Feb 2012.
