Effects Of Different Periodontal Treatments On Quality Of Life In Patients With Periodontitis

The Effect Of Surgical And Non-Surgical Periodontal Treatment On The Quality Of Life In Patients With Periodontitis.

In this study, the quality of life of patients with stage 3 grade C periodontitis who underwent surgical and non-surgical periodontal treatments was evaluated. Patients were compared based on their quality of life using OHIP-14 and OHRQoL-UK questionnaires, as well as a VAS scale, against those who did not receive periodontal treatment, those who received only phase 1 treatment one month prior, and those who underwent periodontal surgical treatment three months prior.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Quality of Life
• Intervention / Treatment: Diagnostic test: Quality of life surveys were conducted

Detailed Description

Currently, the most commonly used reliable scales to measure oral health-related quality of life are the OHIP-14 (Oral Health Impact Profile) and OHRQoL-UK questionnaires. Fifty patients with stage 3 and grade c whose clinical periodontal records (PI, GI, PD and BOP) were obtained were included in the study. OHRQoL-UK, OHIP-14 questionnaires and VAS were applied at the first session (T1). Initial periodontal treatment (scaling, polishing and oral hygiene education) was performed, and non-surgical periodontal treatment (root surface debridement under local anesthesia) was performed in the next session. Three to four weeks after this treatment, patients were recalled for follow-up and all clinical indices and questionnaires were repeated (T2). After re-evaluation, the patients were divided into a surgical group (23 patients) and a non-surgical group (27 patients). Open flap debridement was performed in areas requiring surgery (radiologic bone loss and SCD>5mm). Patients were recalled 12-14 weeks after surgery and all indices and questionnaires were repeated (T3).

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm	Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: NON-SURGICAL PERIODONTAL TREATMENT; Patients included in this group underwent full-mouth scaling followed by root planning in the necessary areas. At the 3-week follow-up session, periodontal surgery was not planned. Periodontal records were maintained, and surveys were administered at follow-up visits.	Diagnostic test: Quality of life surveys were conducted; Quality of life surveys were conducted with OHIP-14, OHRQoL-UK and VAS
Experimental: SURGICAL PERIODONTAL TREATMENT; Patients included in this group received full-mouth scaling followed by root planning in the necessary areas. After a 3-week follow-up period, periodontal records were taken and surgical periodontal treatment was administered to the required areas. Periodontal records were maintained and surveys were conducted at follow-up visits.	Diagnostic test: Quality of life surveys were conducted; Quality of life surveys were conducted with OHIP-14, OHRQoL-UK and VAS
