It has been reported that there is a relationship between a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the promoter region of the CD14 gene at position -159 (C-->T) and infectious diseases. The aim of the present study was to test the hypthesis that expression of this SNP correlates with periodontal disease in a Japanese population. The CD14 genotype was determined in 163 subjects with periodontitis and in 104 age- and gender-matched control subjects without periodontitis. The genotype distribution and allele frequency within the periodontitis patients were not significantly different from those of control subjects. There was, however, a significant difference in the genotype distribution between young patients (< 35 yrs) and older patients (>/==" BORDER="0"> 35 yrs). These findings suggest that CD14 -159C/T polymorphism is not related to the development of periodontitis in a Japanese population, but that, within the periodontitis subjects, expression of the SNP may be related to early disease activity.
Prevalence of periodontal diseases in patients with diabetes mellitus (An observational study at internal medicine polyclinic in Dr. Sardjito General Hospital). Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease with an increasing prevalence and causes complications. The most frequent complication found in the oral cavity of patients with diabetes mellitus is periodontal diseases is characterized by the loss of tissue attachment. There have been numerous studies on the association of DM with periodontal diseases but there has not been any data on the prevalence of periodontal diseases in diabetic group, especially in Yogyakarta and Central Java. Dr. Sardjito General Hospital is a referral hospital in DIY and Central Java, so this study is expected to provide a picture regarding the level of periodontal tissue health among people in Yogyakarta and Central Java. This research was an observational study, involving 36 patients with DM according to criteria of the subjects: suffering from type 2 diabetes, being cooperative and willing to sign an informed consent. The controlled variables: being 40 – 60 years of age, having good oral hygiene (OHI) according to Green and Vermillion, taking neither antibiotics nor anti-inammatory drugs in the last 3 months, not having a history of other systemic diseases. Oral hygiene exams were carried out, followed by examination using probe WHO to determine if there is CAL. The data were presented descriptively. The results showed that the prevalence of periodontal diseases in patients with DM at Internal Medicine Polyclinic in Dr. Sardjito General Hospital is 88.24% with a mean of CAL distance of 4.6 mm. The conclusion of this study is that the prevalence of periodontal diseases in patients with DM is high although the oral hygiene status is good. ABSTRAKDiabetes Mellitus (DM) adalah penyakit kronis menahun dengan prevalensi yang semakin meningkat dan menimbulkan komplikasi. Komplikasi yang paling sering terjadi di rongga mulut pasien DM adalah periodontitis yang ditandai dengan kehilangan perlekatan jaringan. Penelitian tentang hubungan DM dengan periodontitis banyak dilakukan namun belum ditemukan data mengenai prevalensi periodontitis pada kelompok DM khususnya di DIY dan Jawa Tengah. RSUP Dr. Sardjito merupakan rumah sakit rujukan DIY dan Jawa Tengah sehingga penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberi gambaran mengenai tingkat kesehatan jaringan periodontal di masyarakat DIY dan Jawa Tengah. Jenis penelitian ini adalah observasional dengan melibatkan 36 orang pasien DM sesuai kriteria subjek yaitu menderita DM tipe II, kooperatif dan bersedia menandatangani informed consent. Variabel terkendali yaitu usia 40 – 60 tahun, kebersihan mulut (OHI) menurut Green and Vermillion dalam kriteria baik, tidak menggunakan antibiotik dan antiinamasi dalam 3 bulan terakhir dan tidak memiliki riwayat penyakit sistemik lain. Dilakukan pemeriksaan kebersihan mulut dilanjutkan dengan pemeriksaan menggunakan probe WHO untuk menentukan ada tidaknya CAL. Data disajikan secara deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa prevalensi periodontitis pada pasien DM di Poli Klinik Penyakit Dalam RSUP Dr. Sardjito adalah 88,24% dengan rata-rata jarak CAL adalah 4,6 mm. Kesimpulan penelitian ini adalah prevalensi periodontitis pada pasien DM tinggi walaupun status kebersihan mulut tergolong dalam kriteria baik.
One of the regenerative periodontal treatments for infrabony pocket is open flap debridement (OFD) with the addition of growth factor derived from platelet concentrate. Advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) is a further development of plateletrich fibrin (PRF) with a lower centrifugation speed (1,500 rpm, 14 minutes). The purpose of this study was to examine the differences in periodontal tissue regeneration after the application of A-PRF and PRF in the treatment of infrabony pockets evaluated from probing depth (PD), relative attachment loss (RAL), and alveolar bone height. The samples were taken from 20 infrabony pockets divided into 2 groups: 10 subjects were treated with OFD+A-PRF and OFD+PRF on the remaining subjects. Probing depth (PD) and relative attachment loss (RAL) measurement were performed on days 0, 30, and 90. Bone height measurements were performed using CBCT X-rays on days 0 and 90. The results showed that PD and RAL reduction in the group of OFD+A-PRF was significantly greater than that in the OFD+PRF group. Bone height reduction in both groups showed no difference. The conclusion obtained from this study is A-PRF application enhances periodontal tissue regeneration by generating greater probing depth and relative attachment loss reduction compared to PRF, as well as an increase in bone height similar to in the treatment of infrabony pockets.
Ozonated olive oil has been widely used as a local infection therapy to overcome bacterial resistance from antibiotics with systemic administration. However, the disadvantage of systemic antibiotics is it cannot be used in large doses for local infection therapy. Periodontitis is an infectious disease that causes alveolar bone damage. In the periodontitis healing process, osteoblasts and angiogenesis play essential roles in bone regeneration. The study aims to determine the effect of topical application ozonated olive oil to osteoblasts number and angiogenesis of alveolar bone in periodontitis healing process using in vivo study. 32 Sprague Dawley rats were divided into two groups: the treatment and placebo groups, 16 rats in each group. The induction of periodontitis was performed by ligating lower incisor with silk ligature for seven days. The treatment group received ozonated olive oil, and the placebo group received 1 % of CMC-Na twice a day. Four rats from each group were necropsied on day 3, 5, 7, and 14 and then processed into histological sample preparations by hematoxylin-eosin staining and counted the number of osteoblast and blood vessels. All collected data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA and posthoc LSD test. The average number of osteoblasts, blood vessels in the treatment group were significantly higher than the placebo group (p <0.05) either on day 3, 5, 7, and 14. Results showed the ozonated olive oil increase the regeneration of alveolar bone in the periodontitis healing process in Sprague Dawley. Therefore ozonated olive oil has the effect of periodontal tissue regeneration.
