Abstract
AIM
The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of Photodynamic therapy (PDT) and Er,Cr:YSGG laser (ECL) adjunct to nonsurgical mechanical debridement (NSMD) in comparison to conventional NSMD in overweight individuals with peri‑implant disease on peri‑implant inflammatory parameters and cytokine levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in Peri-implant crevicular fluid (PICF) MATERIALS AND METHODS: Recruitment of volunteers was performed from the outpatient department according to predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Group 1 consisted of obese participants who underwent peri‑implant mechanical debridement (MD); group 2, obese participants who experienced MD adjunct to ECL, and in group 3, obese participants were treated with MD and adjunct PDT. Clinical periodontal parameters, plaque index (PI), bleeding index (BI) and probing depth (PD) along with crestal bone loss (CBL) were assessed at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months. PICF was collected to evaluate the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α. Kruskal-Wallis and Bonferroni post hoc test were employed for the comparison of peri‑implant inflammatory parameters and PICF cytokine profiles among the study groups.
RESULTS
Clinical peri‑implant parameters (PI, BI and PD) at baseline among subjects in group 1, group 2 and group 3 were comparable (p > 0.05). At 3 months follow up, mean scores of peri‑implant PI, BI, and PD (P <0.05) in group 1 (control) were significantly higher compared to group 2 (ECL) and 3 (PDT) (p < 0.05). At 6 months follow-up, PI and BI mean scores among groups 1, 2, and 3 were comparable (p>0.05). At 6 months participants in groups 2 and 3 noted significant difference (p<0.05) compared to baseline with no difference noted in the control group (p>0.05).
CONCLUSION
Photodynamic therapy and Er, Cr: YSGG adjunct to NSMD demonstrated significant improvement in peri‑implant inflammatory parameters in obese individuals. Multicentric clinical trials are suggested to extrapolate the findings of the present study.
