Non-Surgical Chemotherapeutic Treatment Strategies for the Management of Periodontal Diseases

Abstract: Synopsis Periodontal diseases are initiated by subgingival periodontal pathogens in susceptible periodontal sites. The host immune response towards periodontal pathogens helps to sustain periodontal disease and eventual alveolar bone loss. Numerous adjunctive therapeutic strategies have evolved to manage periodontal diseases. Systemic and local antibiotics, antiseptics, and past and future host immune modulatory agents are reviewed and discussed to facilitate the dental practitioner’s appreciation of this ever… Show more

“…Its progression is associated to subgingival bacterial colonization 2 , whose toxins are absorbed and fixed to the cement surface 3 , acting as a barrier to the attachment of periodontal tissues [2][3][4][5][6] , consequently promoting irritation, collagen fiber degradation 3 , progressive alveolar bone, cement and periodontal ligament destruction 7 . Root surface conditioning of a tooth affected by periodontal disease aims to remove dental calculus, bacterial biofims and their toxins 2,[8][9] , which consequently contributes to a reduced inflammatory process, periodontal tissue repair [10][11][12] including formation of new supporting tissues [12][13][14] .…”

“…Research by Dym and Zeidan cautions against empiric antibiotic therapy due to the prevalence of microbe resistance against commonly used antibiotics, while Krayer, Leite and Kirkwood suggest that initiating treatment prior to receiving the results of cultures and sensitivities is appropriate. [5,8] Our patient was treated with two different antibiotics prior to presentation and arrival at the appropriate diagnosis, which is perhaps why the blood and wound cultures remained negative after several days; this phenomenon is relatively common in other reported cases. [7] While awaiting the results of the cultures, treatment with ampicillin and sulbactam was initiated after reviewing the medication's documented efficacy in cases of jaw osteomyelitis.…”

“…Most evidence seems to exist for the beneficial effect of adjunctive systemic antibiotics and particularly for the combination of amoxicillin and metronidazole to non-surgical periodontal therapy [8,9,[69][70][71][72]. It has to be underlined that the systemic administration of antibiotics is only recommended in combination with mechanical debridement of the root surfaces i.e.…”
