Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 9
Abstract
Introduction :Chronic periodontitis is a chronic inflammation associated with elevation of several inflammatory and cardiac markers like troponin I studies implicated that chronic periodontitis is one of the etiologies in coronary heart disease. Aims & objectives : This study evaluates and compares the level of troponin in chronic periodontitis patients and in gingivitis patients. Thereby,explaining the quantitative relationship of periodontal status and coronary heart disease. Materials and methods: Group A: Ten patients diagnosed with chronic periodontitis, received scaling and root planning with mean pocket depth of 6mm, peripheral venous blood from each group was taken for measurement, blood was drawn at baseline and 3 months after SRP Group B: ten patients diagnosed with chronic generalized gingivitis were recruited from the department of periodontics st.joseph dental college and hospital .blood was collected at base line and 3 months after scaling. Summary of results: study was statistically significant (p<0.5).Group A showed mean decrease in follow up, in Group B being the control group showed no much difference, as p value is <0.001 it is significant.
