Evaluation of Some Salivary Elements in Chronic Periodontitis Patients
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 12
Abstract
Background:Periodontitis ismulti-factorial inflammatory disease that involves destruction of tissues that support teeth, including alveolar bone,which may cause tooth loss. The salivary parameters can be used for the contribute in the diagnosis of periodontal disease, several studies have focused on a possible relationship between the level of inorganic ions in oral fluid and periodontal disease. The objective of this investigation was to estimate the concentrations of the Cadmium (Cd), magnesium (Mg) and Lead(Pb) in saliva of periodontal disease patients then compare the results with the concentrations of these elements in control group. Materials and methods: this study include 40 saliva samples for both groups(chronic periodontitis patients and healthy control).All the three salivary elements (Cadmium, Magnesium and lead) were determined by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer using standardized procedure by air – acetylene. Results: The results of this study show highly significant difference between chronic periodontitis patients and healthy control subjects in concentration of all the salivary elements (Cadmium, Calcium and Manganese). Conclusion: there was difference in concentration of salivary concentration of Cd, Mg and Pb between chronic periodontitis patients and healthy control subjects.
