About
It was aimed to evaluate the changes in the levels of Periostin, IL-17A and IL-17E cytokines in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of periodontitis patients which non-surgical (Phase I) periodontal treatment applied to and their interactions with smoking. The study included systemic healthy smokers(SP)(n:11) and non-smokers(P)(n:11) with periodontitis, smokers (SS)(n:11) and non-smokers(S)(n:11) with periodontal healthy individuals Phase I periodontal treatment was applied to the groups with periodontitis. Before treatment (day 0), clinical measurements evaluating periodontal status were recorded and GCF samples were collected. GCF samples were collected from the same tooth regions on the 15th and 30th days after treatment and clinical measurements were repeated. GCF Periostin, IL-17A and IL-17E levels were determined by ELISA method. All data were evaluated statistically.
Full description
The SH and H groups' patients were instructed to visit for routine controls without receiving any periodontal treatment. However, after the GCF sampling, patients in the SP and P groups received Non-surgical periodontal treatment(NSPT) included detailed oral hygiene instruction and reinforcement in conjunction with scaling and root planning as a full mouth debridement protocol in a single session They were instructed to refrain from using any chemicals, including mouthwash, to remove plaque.
The periodontitis patients received a follow-up call on the 15th and 30th days following treatment. The GCF sampling procedure was first repeated on the teeth from which a previous GCF sample had been taken. Then, values for the clinical examination parameters (PI, GI, BOP, PD, and CAL) were once again measured and recorded. Daily plaque care efficacy or deficiency was checked and/or reinforced at every recall. All these procedures were performed by a single investigator.
