This study compared the drug release kinetics of Terminalia arjuna mediated selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) gel and zinc oxide (ZnONPs) for their potential in local delivery chronic periodontitis. The was evaluated in-vitro by conducting tests on different formulations, including 1 %, 2 3 4 5 % SeNPs ZnONPs gel. Each sample, approximately 0.1 mg, mixed with 10 mL phosphate buffer saline (PBS) at various pH levels maintained 37 °C. suspension then placed an incubated shaker 120 rpm h....
Halitosis or oral malodor is characterized by unpleasant odor arising from the cavity. The prevalence of halitosis however not studied extensively. aim this study was to evaluate self perception and hygiene habits amongst dental students.A structured questionnaire consisting ten questions administered 285 undergraduate students Madha Dental College Hospital. designed halitosis, aids used, presence caries, gingival bleeding, dryness mouth.Of students, 259 completed questionnaire. response...
Guided bone regeneration (GBR) in implant therapy is especially useful for placement with dehiscence defects or fenestration defects. In alveolar ridges marked facial/buccal depressions knifeedge crests, the position and direction of fixture restricted. Improvement ridge morphology becomes possible GBR. This article describes a case which defect around an was treated by application platelet rich fibrin, second generation concentrate along graft, guided tissue membrane.
Gingival recession is a common occurrence in periodontal disease leading to an unaesthetic appearance of the gingiva. The effect platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), when used along with double lateral sliding bridge flap (DLSBF), remains unknown. aim this study evaluate PRF conjunction DLSBF for multiple gingival recessions.Twenty systemically healthy individuals exhibiting Grade II on their mandibular central incisors were recruited study. These patients randomly assigned into two groups: and +...
Background: Mechanical methods of periodontal therapy alone may fail to eliminate the tissue-invasive pathogenic flora; therefore, considerable attention has been given adjunctive antimicrobial measures. Objective: The aim this study was investigate and compare clinical microbiological effects diode laser (DL) as an adjunct Kirkland flap surgery versus for treatment generalized chronic periodontitis. Materials methods: A total 20 patients with periodontitis probing pocket depth ≥5 mm after...
Introduction Treating the patients with excessive gingival display to provide a pleasant smile is challenge periodontist. Gummy can be due vertical bone growth, dentoalveolar extrusion, short upper lip, lip hyperactivity, or altered passive eruption. associated hyperactivity of elevator muscles treated by surgical techniques like repositioning, botulinum toxin injection, elongation rhinoplasty, detachment muscles, and myectomy. Regardless technique used, achieve predictable result long‐term...

Introduction The management of gingival recession associated with esthetic concerns and root hypersensitivity is challenging, its sequelae based on the assessment etiological factors degree tissue involvement. Procedures using pedicle flaps, free soft grafts, combination flaps barrier membranes, use platelet concentrates are all effective for this purpose. third‐generation concentrate, advanced platelet‐rich fibrin (A‐PRF), has evolved as a promising regenerative material coverage procedure...
Background: The aim of this randomized split-mouth double-blind study was to evaluate whether 4% articaine hydrochloride with 1:100,000 epinephrine administered as a single buccal infiltration in the maxillary posterior sextant can provide palatal anesthesia when compared 2% lignocaine during scaling and root planing access flap surgery (AFS).

Background and Objectives: Periodontal surgery requires local anesthetic coverage to alleviate patient discomfort. Needles injections can engender feelings of fear anxiety in individuals. This study aimed assess the level comfort patients during administration anesthesia using needleless jet (JA) when compared a conventional syringe (CS) periodontal surgery.

Esthetic concerns of the patient have become an essential part dentistry, especially Periodontics. Periodontal plastic surgery is a rapidly emerging field, which helps us to meet this criterion. Root coverage being achieved by variety techniques namely pedicle grafts and free soft tissue grafts. This article highlights on 2 case reports in new graft technique has been used for root coverage.
Periodontal diseases are complex inflammatory conditions of the oral cavity, affecting a significant portion global population. Central to pathogenesis these is intricate interplay between microbial pathogens, host immune response, and environmental factors. Among diverse array microorganisms inhabiting microbiome, triad pathogens—Porphyromonas gingivalis, Tannerella forsythia, Treponema denticola—commonly referred as
Alveolar bone loss following tooth extraction is common. Socket preservation techniques, involving grafts and membranes, aim to mitigate this loss. This study evaluates the efficacy of a composite graft (bioglass A-PRF gel) combined with collagen membranes for socket preservation, using Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) assess dimensional changes over 6 months post-extraction.
