AIM
Evaluate supportive periodontal therapy (SPT) consisting of oral prophylaxis with oral hygiene instructions as sole intervention (test) or combined with subgingival instrumentation removing/disrupting the subgingival biofilm (control).
MATERIAL AND METHODS
62 treated periodontitis patients (50.97 ± 9.26 years, 24 smokers) were randomly assigned to receive, every 3 months during 2 years, either test or control treatment. Examination included periodontal probing depth (PPD), bleeding on probing (BOP) and clinical attachment loss (CAL). Generalized estimating equations were used for analyses.
RESULTS
Baseline demographics and smoking were similar between groups. However, at baseline mean PPD was greater in test than control group (2.32mm vs. 2.17mm, p=0.03) but similar after 2-years (2.23mm vs. 2.15mm, respectively). With time, significant PPD and BOP decrease and CAL increase were observed although without significant differences between groups. At sites ≥ 5mm, PPD decrease was greater in test than control group irrespective of sex and smoking habit (p=0.034). The distribution of sites gaining or losing attachment +/- 2mm was similar between groups.
CONCLUSION
Oral prophylaxis with oral hygiene instructions alone or in combination with subgingival instrumentation were able to maintain the previously obtained periodontal condition to a comparable extent during 2 years SPT. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
