About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Bone Remodeling Markers Following Non-surgical Periodontal Therapy in Periodontitis Patients (Prospective Clinical Trial)

Previous studied have investigated the pathophysiological role and expression of Cathepsin K (Ctsk) , receptor activator of the NF-κB ligand (RANKL) and periostin in active periodontitis and peri-implantitis lesions. However, the potential influence of non-surgical periodontal therapy including scaling and root planning on the bone remodeling markers level over different trial times have not well determined. Thus, the current research is conducted to address this influence. Thus, the research question will be: In patients with periodontitis, does the level of bone remodeling markers altered after successful NSPT during different healing time periods?

What participants receive

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

  • Root surface debridementProcedure or surgery

    subjects will be examined for clinical periodontal parameters, their saliva samples will be collected, and then receiving full scaling using ultrasonic device, and oral hygiene instructions and motivation. After one week, the same clinical parameters, saliva sampling will be taken, and received full root surface debridement (RSD) using curette hand instruments (Gracey, USA) (First visit). One month and three months after first visit, the same clinical measurements, saliva will characterize as second and third visits, respectively.

Periodontitis treated with Root surface debridementExperimentalImmediately after inclusion in the study, the patient's examination with saliva sampling will be conducted as follows: At a base line visit (Zero time visit), subjects will be examined for clinical periodontal parameters, their saliva samples will be collected, and then receiving full scaling using ultrasonic device, and oral hygiene instructions and motivation. After one week, the same clinical parameters, saliva sampling will be taken, and received full root surface debridement (RSD) using curette hand instruments (Gracey, USA) (First visit). One month and three months after first visit, the same clinical measurements, saliva will characterize as second and third visits, respectively.
Receives: Procedure: Root surface debridement

What is being measured

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

  1. Bone remodeling markers including salivary RANKL

    To investigate the alterations in the level of salivary RANKL pg/ml following Non-surgical periodontal therapy in unstable periodontitis patients during different healing time periods.

    Measured: At a base line visit (Zero time visit), After one week (first visit), and One month and three months after first visit

  2. Bone remodeling markers including salivary Cathepsin k

    To investigate the alterations in the level of salivary Cathepsin k pg/ml following Non-surgical periodontal therapy in unstable periodontitis patients during different healing time periods.

    Measured: At a base line visit (Zero time visit), After one week (first visit), and One month and three months after first visit

  3. Bone remodeling markers including salivary periostin

    To investigate the alterations in the level of salivary periostin pg/ml following Non-surgical periodontal therapy in unstable periodontitis patients during different healing time periods.

    Measured: At a base line visit (Zero time visit), After one week (first visit), and One month and three months after first visit

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Clinical periodontal parameters including Bleeding on probing

    To measure Clinical periodontal parameters including Bleeding on probing following Non-surgical periodontal therapy in unstable periodontitis patients during different healing time periods.

    Measured: At a base line visit (Zero time visit), After one week (first visit), and One month and three months after first visit

  2. Clinical periodontal parameters including probing pocket depth

    To measure Clinical periodontal parameters including probing pocket depth following Non-surgical periodontal therapy in unstable periodontitis patients during different healing time periods.

    Measured: At a base line visit (Zero time visit), After one week (first visit), and One month and three months after first visit

  3. Clinical periodontal parameters including clinical attachment loss

    To measure Clinical periodontal parameters including clinical attachment loss following Non-surgical periodontal therapy in unstable periodontitis patients during different healing time periods.

    Measured: At a base line visit (Zero time visit), After one week (first visit), and One month and three months after first visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Root surface debridement in people with Periodontal Diseases, run by University of Baghdad at 1 site in Iraq.

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 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Dec 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Iraq. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Bone remodeling markers including salivary RANKL (time frame: At a base line visit (Zero time visit), After one week (first visit), and One month and three months after first visit). 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 15 Dec 2022.
