Neurogenic Inflammation in Peri-implant and Periodontal Diseases

September 11, 2018 updated by: muge lutfioglu, Ondokuz Mayıs University

Neurogenic Inflammatory Response in Peri-implant and Periodontal Diseases Assessed by Biochemical Analysis of the Neuropeptides in Gingival Crevicular Fluid.

Regulatory effects of some neuropeptides substance-P (SP), neurokinin-A (NKA), calcitonin gene-linked peptide (CGRP) and neuropeptide-Y (NPY) )on inflammatory responses in periodontal disease has been described; however, the impact of neuropeptide levels are not clearly defined in healthy and diseased peri-implant tissues.ın order to evaluate the situation, thirty-nine implants that have been loaded over the past 12 months and their symmetrically matching teeth were evaluated using a split-mouth study design. Clinical periodontal examinations included the Silness-Löe plaque index, Löe-Silness gingival index, bleeding on probing, probing pocket depth and clinical attachment level parameters were determined. Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF)/Periimplant sulcular fluid (PISF) samples were collected, and the levels of the neuropeptides were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Correlations between GCF/PISF neuropeptide levels and the clinical examination parameters were evaluated in the peri-implant/periodontal soft tissues.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years to 61 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Male

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Thirty-nine male, systemically healthy adult individuals (35-55 years old) and 39 dental implants were recruited for the present study. The same implant system was utilized for the treatments and the clinical treatment procedures were completed by the same two clinicians at the Ondokuz Mayis University Dental Faculty between 2011 and 2013.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

The main inclusion criteria for patient selection were as follows:

  • Compliance with systematic maintenance care;
  • Adult, non-smoker, systemically healthy
  • Not using any medicament for the last 6 months ;
  • Partially dentated patient treated with implant-supported metal ceramic full crowns and/or fixed partial dentures
  • As the study was split-mouth designed, in each individual at least one implant and one matching tooth in the same mouth symmetrically representing the same tooth group (premolars/molars);
  • A single type of metal ceramic implant restoration that is functional for at least 1 year; and a matching tooth with no dental or endodontic restorations.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Medical history of cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes mellitus, or cardiovascular disease and any other systemic disease affecting lipid metabolism (i.e. impaired glucose tolerance, metabolic syndrome);
  • Compromised immune system;
  • Pregnancy, menopause, or lactation;
  • Ongoing drug therapy that might affect the clinical characteristics of periodontitis and lipid metabolism;
  • Dental treatment during the 6 months prior to data collection.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Group 1-Health periodontal
This group created by individuals with healthy periodontal tissues. Periodontal status/peri-implant was assessed by clinical examination and classified according to criteria proposed by the 1999 International World Workshop for a Classification of Periodontal Disease and Conditions.
Diagnostic test: gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and peri-implant sulcular fluid(PISF) collection
GCF/PISF samples were collected using periopaper strips. Prior to sample collection, each site was gently air-dried, all supragingival plaque was removed, and the area was carefully isolated to prevent samples from being contaminated by saliva.
Group 2- Healthy peri-implant
This group created by individuals with healthy peri-implant tissues. Periodontal status/peri-implant was assessed by clinical examination and classified according to criteria proposed by the 1999 International World Workshop for a Classification of Periodontal Disease and Conditions.
