Clinical and microbiological evaluation of one-stage full-mouth disinfection: a short-term study

Avaliação clínica e microbiológica do protocolo one-stage full-mouth disinfection: estudo de curto prazo

Abstracts

INTRODUCTION: Patients seem to adhere better to short-term periodontal treatment schemes. Besides, time-reduced treatments are more cost-effective. However, the degree of benefits related to this type of treatment still requires additional investigations. AIM: The present short-term study evaluated clinical and microbiological outcomes, from baseline to 3-months, of chronic periodontitis subjects treated by the one-stage full-mouth disinfection protocol. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Sixteen chronic periodontitis subjects (mean-age 49.87 ± 8.22) who met inclusion/exclusion criteria were included. A calibrated examiner measured whole-mouth plaque and gingival indices, periodontal pocket depth and clinical attachment level at baseline and at 3-months. Subgingival samples were also collected from the 5 most diseased periodontal sites to determine total bacterial load and levels of P. gingivalis and S. oralis by real time qPCR. Periodontal treatment consisted of full-mouth manual debridement plus wide intraoral use of chlorhexidine in gel and solution. Additionally, after debridement, individuals rinsed 0.12% chlorhexidine at home twice a day for the following 2 months. Data monitored were compared by paired Student-t test (p<0.05). RESULT: Statistical analysis revealed that, in general, one-stage full-mouth disinfection treatment provided significant clinical and microbiological improvements at 3-months. Total bacterial load showed one of the most pronounced reductions from baseline to 3-months (p=0.0001). Also, subgingival levels P. gingivalis and S. oralis reduced overtime. CONCLUSION: After a short period of monitoring, chronic periodontitis subjects showed clinical and microbial improvements following one-stage full-mouth disinfection treatment.

RESUMO INTRODUÇÃO: Os pacientes parecem aderir melhor ao tratamento periodontal de curto prazo. Além disso, tratamentos de tempo curto possuem melhor custo-benefício. No entanto, os benefícios associados a este tipo de tratamento ainda requerem investigações adicionais. OBJETIVO: O presente estudo avaliou longitudinalmente indivíduos com periodontite crônica clínica e microbiologicamente tratados pelo protocolo one-stage full-mouth disinfection. MATERIAL E MÉTODO: Dezesseis indivíduos (49,87 ± 8,22), que se enquadraram nos critérios de inclusão/exclusão foram incluídos. Um examinador calibrado, avaliou índice de placa e gengival, profundidade de bolsa e nível clínico de inserção pré e pós terapia. Amostras subgengivais coletadas dos cinco sítios periodontais mais doentes estabeleceram a carga bacteriana total e níveis de P. gingivalis e S. oralis por qPCR. One-stage full-mouth disinfection foi realizado com instrumentos manuais associado a gel de clorexidina e solução. Após, os indivíduos utilizaram clorexidina 0,12% para bochecho, duas vezes ao dia, durante os dois meses. Dados foram comparados pelo teste pareado t de Student (p<0,05). RESULTADO: A análise estatística revelou que o tratamento proporcionou melhorias clínicas e microbianas significativas em três meses. A carga bacteriana total evidenciou reduções mais pronunciadas do pré para o pós-tratamento (p=0,0001). Similarmente, P. gingivalis e S. oralis mostraram redução no pós-tratamento. CONCLUSÃO: Após 3 meses de monitoramento, indivíduos com periodontite crônica apresentaram melhora clínica e microbiana com o protocolo one stage full-mouth disinfection.
