About this study
Official title: Effects of Antimicrobial Peptides Application After Non-surgical Periodontal Therapy on Treatment of Stage III and Grade B Periodontitis
Chronic periodontitis is an infectious disease of periodontal support tissues caused by bacterial biofilm, which leads to inflammation and destruction of periodontal support tissues ultimately resulting in tooth loss.In the clinic, patients with Stage III and Grade B periodontitis are difficult to gain desired outcomes on account of deep periodontal pockets, complicated anatomy, the removal of subgingival dental biofilms, and control of residual inflammation. A large number of studies have indicated that the effectiveness of local application of antibiotics as an adjunct to scaling and root planning (SRP), such as the antimicrobial and minocycline hydrochloride could affect bacterial metabolism and inhibit biofilm attachment particularly in terms of pocket depth reduction and attachment level gain. However, the use of wide-spectrum antibiotics may cause some inevitable side effects including drug resistance, pathogens and probiotics were eliminated leading to diversity of microbiota diminished, and toothstaining. To solve the problems of antibiotics in the clinic, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) may be considered as an alternative to conventional antibiotics drugs.In this randomized clinical trial, we aimed to evaluate the effects of AMPs as an addition to SRP on clinical parameters and microbiological biofilms in patients with Stage III and Grade B periodontitis.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Oral biological antimicrobial gelDrug
Also called Biokiller Oral Biological Antimicrobial Gel
The patients were divided into subgingival scaling, and Oral Biological Antimicrobial Gel was used in the periodontal pocket after scaling. The injection probe with gel was inserted into the periodontal pocket, and the injection was slowly pushed, and the injection was gradually withdrawn during the injection, until a little gel was found at the mouth of the bag.
minocycline hydrochloride ointmentDrug
Also called Periocline
The patients were divided into subgingival scaling, and minocycline hydrochloride ointment was used in the periodontal pocket after scaling. The injection probe with gel was inserted into the periodontal pocket, and the injection was slowly pushed, and the injection was gradually withdrawn during the injection, until a little gel was found at the mouth of the bag.
SRPOther
only scaling and root planning was performed on the patient
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| AMP Group | Experimental | scaling and root planning and subgingival application of antimicrobial peptide gel Receives: Drug: Oral biological antimicrobial gel |
| Perio Group | Active comparator | scaling and root planning and subgingival application of minocycline hydrochloride ointment Receives: Drug: minocycline hydrochloride ointment |

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Periodontal Probing Depth
from the gingival margin to the bottom of the periodontal pocket were assessed using a Williams periodontal probe((Hu-Friedy)
Measured: Change from Baseline Periodontal probing depth at 90 days
Attachment Level Were Assessed Using a Williams Periodontal Probe((Hu-Friedy)
from the cementoenamel junction, crown margin or restoration to the bottom of the pocket
Measured: Change from Baseline Attachment level at 90 days
Bleeding Index Were Assessed Using a Williams Periodontal Probe((Hu-Friedy) ,the Rating Method Was Assessed Using the Criteria of Mazza.
Bleeding index :
0 = normal appearance of the gingiva and no bleeding on sulcus probing.
- = normal appearance of the gingiva but bleeding on probing of the sulcus.
- = bleeding on probing and gingival color change without swelling.
- = bleeding on probing, gingival color change with mild swelling.
- = bleeding on probing with marked gingival swelling, with or without color change.
- = bleeding on probing, L Spontaneous bleeding, gingival color change with marked swelling, with or without ulceration.
Measured: Change from Bleeding index at 90 days

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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?
Periodontal Probing Depth (time frame: Change from Baseline Periodontal probing depth at 90 days). The study lists 3 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 30 Apr 2024.
