What participants receive

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

  • Analysis of the salivaDiagnostic test

    IFN-, IL-10, IL-1b, IL-4 and IL-6

What is being measured

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

  1. saliva flow rate

    Unstimulated salivary flow rate. Pathological < or 1.5 ml/ 15 minutes.

    Measured: 2 months

  2. Xerostomia

    Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for xerostomia severity (0 cm: no xerostomía , 10cm : very severe xerostomia ).

    Measured: 2 months

  3. Interleukins

    Analytes in saliva IFN-(pg/ml), IL-10(pg/ml), IL-1b(pg/ml), IL-4 (pg/ml)and IL-6 (pg/ml)

    Measured: 2 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Oral Exam

    Caries number, natural teeth number

    Measured: 4 months

  2. Periodontal evaluation

    periodontal( gingival index, bleeding index, clinical attachment level, probing depth,number dental implant .A periodontal probe will be inserted between the tooth and the gum in the gingival sulcus and a measurement of the pocket depth will be measured by a trained dentist in all subjects according to American Academy of Periodontology classification of periodontal diagnosis

    Measured: 4 months
