The Effect of Periodontal Treatment on Psoriasis

May 7, 2019 updated by: Ozge Gokturk

Effects of Non-surgical Periodontal Therapy on Inflammatory Markers of Psoriasis

There is a relationship between psoriasis and periodontal disease. This relationship may be double-sided.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The aim of this randomized controlled clinical study was to determine the effect of non-surgical mechanical periodontal treatment on psoriasis. The study population consisted of 92 periodontitis patients with psoriasis who had untreated periodontal disease. Two randomized groups were formed from these patients. Immediate periodontal treatment (test group, n = 46) and delayed periodontal treatment (control group, n = 46). Clinical periodontal measures, saliva interleukin 2, interleukin 6 and secretory immunoglobulin A levels and PASI scores were performed at baseline and 8th week in control and test group.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Test Group

Psoriatic measurements and saliva samples were taken from periodontal disease patients before treatment and after 8 weeks.

Intervention: Non-surgical periodontal treatment was performed and the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) was filled, saliva samples were taken.

Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) was performed baseline and after 8 weeks. Saliva samples were taken from patients for the evaluation of proinflammatory cytokine baseline and after 8 weeks.
Non-surgical periodontal treatment was performed baseline and after 8 weeks. Saliva samples were taken from patients for the evaluation of proinflammatory cytokine baseline and after 8 weeks.
Saliva samples were taken from patients for the evaluation of proinflammatory cytokine baseline and after 8 weeks.
Placebo Comparator: Control Group

Psoriatic measurements and saliva samples were taken from periodontal disease patients at the baseline and after 8 weeks without the periodontal treatment.

Intervention: Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) was filled, saliva samples were taken.

Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) was performed baseline and after 8 weeks. Saliva samples were taken from patients for the evaluation of proinflammatory cytokine baseline and after 8 weeks.
Saliva samples were taken from patients for the evaluation of proinflammatory cytokine baseline and after 8 weeks.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Proinflammatory cytokines
Time Frame: Baseline and after 8 weeks
The changes in proinflammatory cytokines levels within 8 weeks. Higher values represent a worse outcome. The decrease in proinflammatory cytokines levels is expected after periodontal treatment.
Baseline and after 8 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Gingival index
Time Frame: Baseline and after 8 weeks
The changes in gingival index level after periodontal treatment. Gingival index was measured for determining the severity of disease and clinical outcome. Higher values represent a worse outcome. After periodontal treatment, a reduction in gingival index value is expected.
Baseline and after 8 weeks
PASI index
Time Frame: Baseline and after 8 weeks
The changes in PASI index level after periodontal treatment. PASI index was measured for determining the severity of psoriasis disease. Higher values represent a worse outcome. After periodontal treatment, a reduction in PASI index value is expected.
Baseline and after 8 weeks
