Comparative Evaluation of the Effect of One Stage Full Mouth Disinfection Versus Conventional Quadrant Therapy in the Control of Chronic Periodontitis in Type 2 Diabetic Subjects – A Clinical Pilot Study
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Dental Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 7
Abstract
To compare the effect of one stage full mouth disinfection(FMD) versus quadrant scaling and root planing(Q-SRP)in the control of chronic periodontitis(CP)in type 2 diabetic subjects. 20 type 2 diabetic subjects with chronic periodontitis were selected randomly and divided into two groups(Test group FMD and Control group Q-SRP) based on inclusion criteria. To evaluate the periodontal status, the clinical parameters, Gingival Index (GI), Plaque Index(PI) and Probing depth(PD) were assessed at baseline and 2 months after treatment. Statistical comparisons were performed within groups and between groups. Statistically significant improvements in all the clinical parameters were found in both the groups between baseline and 3 months. The test group showed clinically significant improvement in GI and PD compared to the control group but these results were not statistically significant. Based on the results of the present study it was concluded that both FMD and Q-SRP result in improvements in periodontal parameters. Even though, FMD results in an improved clinical outcome compared to Q-SRP, the results were not statistically significant. Further studies with larger sample size are warranted.
