Comparative Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Triphala and Chlorhexidine in Full-mouth Disinfection Treatment of Periodontitis in Type 2 Diabetes Patients.
The Journal of Contemporary Dental Practice(2023)
摘要
AIM:To evaluate and compare the efficacy of triphala and chlorhexidine (CHX) in the treatment of stages II and III periodontitis with one-stage complete mouth disinfection in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:A total of 24 type 2 diabetic subjects with either stage II or stage III periodontitis were randomly divided into test and control groups with 12 patients in each group. For control group, full-mouth disinfection (FMD) was done using CHX and for test group, FMD was done using triphala. Clinical parameters were evaluated at baseline and at 6 months which comprised of probing pocket depth (PPD), plaque index (PI), clinical attachment level (CAL), papillary bleeding index (PBI). The primary outcomes considered were a reduction in PPD and a gain in CAL. The data were recorded, tabulated, and statistically analyzed.
RESULTS:The PPD reduction for the test group was 3.38 ± 0.75 mm and for the control group was 3.39 ± 0.76 mm. The CAL gain for the test group was 3.39 ± 0.76 mm and for the control group was 3.18 ± 0.74 mm. Although there was a statistically significant PPD reduction, statistically not significant CAL gain was observed.
CONCLUSION:Both the groups with the FMD protocol showed beneficial results in terms of PPD reduction and CAL gain but the test group showed slightly better results.
CLINICAL RELEVANCE:Clinically, there is more PPD reduction and CAL gain from baseline to 6 months in the test group compared to the control group. Clinically, the test group has more favorable results compared to the control group.
