About this study

Official title: Clinical and Biochemical Evaluation of Oral Irrigation in Patients With Periimplant Mucositis

The present study aimed to investigate clinically the cleaning effectiveness of different treatment modalities, that is, oral irrigator or interdental brush usage addition to routine brushing and examine TGF-β1, IL-1β, t-PA, and PAI-1 levels in periimplant crevicular fluid of patients with periimplant mucositis. The null hypothesis was that oral irrigators would be effective compared to interdental brush in the oral care of individuals who use implant-supported protheses.

Read the detailed description

Detailed Description: Our aim was to evaluate efficacy of a manual tooth-brush with either interdental brush or oral irrigator in treatment of periimplant mucositis.

Material and Method: Forty-five patients with periimplant mucositis having at least one implant (age range:45-60) were included in study. Study was planned as randomized, single-blind, parallel-design. Patients were divided into 3 equal groups; i)toothbrush+oral irrigator ii)toothbrush+interdental brush, iii)only toothbrush. After baseline examinations [Silness-Löe plaque index(PI), Löe-Silness gingival index(GI), probing pocket depth(PPD), clinical attachment level(CAL), bleeding on probing(BOP)], initial periodontal therapy was completed using full-mouth disinfection method. Periimplant crevicular fluid(PCF) were taken from patents to assess levels of interleukin-1beta(IL-1β), Transforming growth factor-beta(TGF- β), tissue-type plasminogen activator(t-PA), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1). Clinical records were repeated at 2, 4 and 12 weeks.

The hypothesis of our study is that oral irrigators may be effective in oral care of individuals using an implant-supported prosthesis because of the ease of use.

  • Periimplant crevicular fluid (PICF) collectionDiagnostic test

    Prior to PICF sampling, supragingival plaque was removed by sterile curets and, after air drying, the surfaces were isolated by cotton rolls. Filter paper strips (periopaper, proflow Inc., Amityville, New York, USA) 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 PICF volume was estimated by a calibrated instrument (periotron 8000, proflow Inc., Amityville, NY, USA). Then, the strips were sealed into sterile tubes before freezing at -80⁰C. The readings were converted to an actual volume (µl) by reference to the standard curve.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Oral irrigator groupExperimentalFifteen patients using toothbrush and oral irrigator(oxytet oral irrigatör).All patients were told to use Modified Bass method of tooth brushing technique. PI, GI, PPD and CAL values were measured with William's probe (Hu-Fried, Chicago, IL, A.B.D) around the teeth and with plastic probe around the implants. All clinical parameters were evaluated on each of the six regions of the implant (mesio-buccal, mid-buccal, disto-buccal, mesio-lingual, mid-lingual, disto-lingual).PICF was collected one day after the clinical examination from buccal aspects of the mesial and distal surfaces at the interproximal sites.Following the initial clinical records, all patients were performed full mouth instrumentation and described oral hygiene procedure according to their groups.

What is being measured

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

  1. Periimplant crevicular fluid level of IL-1β as a marker of gingival inflammation

    Elevated levels of IL-1β in periimplant crevicular fluid have been associated with the destructive changes that occur in the inflamed human gingiva

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. Periimplant crevicular fluid level of TGF-β1 as a marker both of inflammatory phase and proliferative phase

    TGF-β1 plays a role in the development and progression of periodontal diseases.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  3. Periimplant crevicular fluid level of t-PA as a marker for clinical evaluation and efficacy of periodontal treatment

    Higher levels of t-PA in periimplant crevicular fluid have been associated with gingivitis and periodontitis.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  4. Periimplant crevicular fluid level of PAI-1 as a marker for clinical evaluation and efficacy of periodontal treatment

    Higher levels of PAI-1 may be associated with progression of periodontitis

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Feb 2019. 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?

Periimplant crevicular fluid level of IL-1β as a marker of gingival inflammation (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03844035, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 18 Feb 2019.
