Clinical-Statistical Study on the Use of a Magnesium-Terpene-Based Substance in Polymeric Trays for Periodontal Treatment

Periodontal diseases are inflammatory diseases that cause lesions of the dento-periodontal system and can even lead to the loss of teeth. A successful treatment of periodontal diseases includes procedures aimed at reducing inflammation, by mechanical and chemical means, which have the role to decrease the pathogenicity of microorganisms found in the bacterial plaque. The study was conducted on a group of 50 patients, of whom a control group of 25 patients followed conventional periodontal treatment, while the other 25 patients received magnesium-terpene therapy by using polymeric thermoforming mouth custom trays, along with conventional periodontal treatment. The statistical and clinical assessment of the study revealed the efficiency of the magnesium-terpene active gel for the treatment of periodontal disease.
