About this study

Official title: Effect of Non-surgical Periodontal Treatment on Visfatin, fetuin-a and Sirtuin 1 Concentrations in Gingival Crevicular Fluid of Patients With Periodontitis and Type 2 Diabetes

The aim of this study is to determine the concentrations of Visfatin, Fetuin-A and Sirtuin 1 in the gingival crevicular fluid and clinical periodontal parameters in diabetic and systemically healthy individuals and to determine whether non-surgical periodontal treatment had any effect on these biomarkers and periodontal clinical parameters at the end of a 3-month follow-up period. The hypothesis of our study is that gingival crevicular fluid Visfatin, Fetuin-A and Sirtuin 1 concentrations will change with non-surgical periodontal treatment in type 2 diabetic and systemically healthy individuals and that this change will be associated with diabetes and clinical parameters.

Read the detailed description

Sixty-six patients were divided into six equal groups; group 1: systemically and periodontally healthy individuals, group 2: systemically healthy individuals with periodontitis, group 3: controlled type 2 diabetes and periodontally healthy individuals, group 4: controlled type 2 diabetes and periodontitis, group 5: uncontrolled type 2 diabetes and periodontally healthy individuals, group 6: uncontrolled type 2 diabetes and periodontitis. The study was planned as a randomized, single-blind, parallel design. Periodontal clinical parameters (Silness-Löe plaque index, Löe-Silness gingival index, probing pocket depth, clinical attachment level, bleeding on probing) were recorded clinically and concentrations of visfatin, fetuin-A and sirtuin 1 in gingival crevicular fluid were assessed biochemically. After baseline examinations, periodontal treatment was completed using a nonsurgical periodontal treatment protocol completed in 24 hours. Periodontal clinical parameters and gingival crevicular fluid were recorded at baseline and 3 months after periodontal treatment. Biochemical analysis and statistical evaluation were performed.

What participants receive

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

  • GCF (gingival crevicular fluid) collectionDiagnostic test

    Prior to GCF (gingival crevicular fluid) sampling, supragingival plaque was removed by sterile curets and, after air drying, the surfaces were isolated by cotton rolls. Gingival fluid collection strips were placed in sulcus for 30s. Care was taken not to avoid mechanical trauma and strips contaminated with blood or saliva were discarded. The absorbed GCF volume was estimated by a calibrated instrument. Then, the strips were sealed into sterile tubes before freezing at -80 °C. The readings were converted to an actual volume (μl) by reference to the standard curve.

  • Non-surgical periodontal treatment completed in 24 hoursProcedure or surgery

    After clinical periodontal parameters were recorded and GCF samples were obtained, non-surgical periodontal treatment was started under local anesthesia. All periodontal treatments were performed by a single investigator. Local infiltrative anesthesia was applied to the buccal and palatal/lingual areas of the maxilla and mandible of the patients. After anesthesia was achieved, scaler and ultrasonic tips of various thicknesses were used together to remove supragingival and subgingival hard attachments. Root surface smoothing was performed with region-specific periodontal curettes. The roughness of the surfaces was controlled using a periodontal probe. Polishing was performed. Oral hygiene education was given to each patient after treatment. Modified Bass technique was explained as a brushing technique. Interdental cleaning is explained. The patient was told not to use any chemical agent for plaque removal.

  • HbA1c level determination in blood serumDiagnostic test

    Blood samples were taken from the patients and HbA1c concentration was measured in serum.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
group 1: Systemically Healthy, Periodontally Healthy (n:11)ExperimentalPlaque index, gingival index, bleeding on probing index, probing pocket depth and clinical attachment level were measured at 6 sites (buccomesial, midbuccal, buccodistal, lingual/palatal mesial, midlingual/palatal, lingual/palatal distal) of each tooth to evaluate the periodontal status of the patients. On the day of examination, panoramic radiographs were taken from all patients to determine alveolar bone loss. Gingival crevicular fluid is collected from the patients. Gingival crevicular fluid samples were collected from 5 randomly selected teeth with GI=0, PI=0 and PPD ≤3. Then, each paper strip from each tooth was individually placed in sterile 0.5 ml eppendorf tubes. Eppendorf tubes were stored at -80°C. Oral hygiene education was given to each patient. Modified Bass technique was explained as a brushing technique. Interdental brush or dental floss was recommended for interdental cleaning according to the condition of the patient's interdental areas and its use was demonstrated.

  9. Fetuin-A concentration in GCF

    Fetuin-A concentrations in GCF were decreased in all periodontitis patients. In periodontal healthy patients with Type 2 diabetes fetuin-A concentrations in GCF were increased. Non-surgical periodontal treatment increased the concentration of fetuin-A in GCF.

    Measured: Baseline to 3 months after treatment

  10. Sirtuin 1 concentration in GCF

    In systemic healthy individuals, periodontitis decreased the concentration of sirtuin 1 in GCF. Type 2 diabetes increased sirtuin 1 concentration in GCF. In controlled type 2 diabetes patients with periodontitis sirtuin 1 concentrations in GCF were increased. In uncontrolled type 2 diabetes patients with periodontitis sirtuin 1 concentrations in GCF were decreased. Non-surgical periodontal treatment increased the concentration of sirtuin 1 in GCF.
