About this study

Official title: The Effect of Non-Surgical Periodontal Treatment on Gingival Crevicular Fluid Periostin Levels in Patients With Gingivitis and Chronic Periodontitis

A total of 90 subjects, 30 patients with chronic periodontitis, 30 with gingivitis and 30 periodontally healthy subjects were included. Patients with periodontal disease received non-surgical periodontal treatment. Gingival crevicular fluid periostin levels were assessed at baseline, at the 6th week and the 3rd month after treatment.

Read the detailed description

Periostin is commonly found in collagen-rich tissues, which is thought to affect the production of collagen fibers. Additionally, periostin is synthesized in tissues exposed to constant mechanical forces such as the periosteum, periodontal ligament, tendon, heart valve and skin. Periostin mediates inflammation and fibrosis during diseases of various organs, including the heart, lung, kidney, skin, liver, skeletal muscle and retina.

This study evaluated periostin levels in gingival crevicular fluid from patients with chronic periodontitis, gingivitis and periodontally healthy as well as the effect of non-surgical periodontal treatment on gingival crevicular fluid periostin levels.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Non-Surgical Periodontal TreatmentProcedure or surgery

    Also called Initial periodontal therapy

    Scaling and root planing and polishing with specific curettes were performed to patients and oral hygiene education was provided to each patient.

Study groups in NCT04332965
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patients with chronic periodontitisExperimentalPatients with CP (n=30) had teeth with 30% periodontal bone loss and ≥ 2 non-adjacent sites per quadrant with probing depth (PD) ≥ 5 mm and bleeding on probing.
Receives: Procedure: Non-Surgical Periodontal Treatment
Patients with gingivitisExperimentalParticipants with G (n=30) had gingival index ≥ 2 and other inflammation signs.
Receives: Procedure: Non-Surgical Periodontal Treatment
Participants with periodontal healthyNo interventionThe H group (n=30) consisted of individuals with no attachment loss, no history of periodontal disease, PD ≤3 mm, and whole-mouth bleeding scores <10%.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in periostin

    Total amount of Periostin (pg/30 sec) in gingival crevicular fluid

    Measured: Baseline, 6th week and 3rd month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in periodontal clinical parameter

    Clinical attachment level (mm) (from cemento-enamel junction to the base of periodontal pocket)

    Measured: Baseline, 6th week and 3rd month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Non-Surgical Periodontal Treatment in people with Periodontal Diseases, run by Kırıkkale University.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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 3 Apr 2020. 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.

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?

Change in periostin (time frame: Baseline, 6th week and 3rd month). 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 3 Apr 2020.
