The use of PCR in patients with periodontal disease before the prosthetic treatment
Journal Title: Journal of Stomatology (Czasopismo Stomatologiczne) - Year 2018, Vol 71, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction: Periodontal diseases depend heavily on the proliferation of certain pathogenic bacteria species that destroy the periodontium and bear the risk of tissue metastasis. Due to these reasons, the identification, as well as assessment of quantity and quality and specific antibiotic therapy of bacterial flora are all crucial in treatment and prevention of the ensuing repercussions of periodontal infections. Objectives: Aim of the work was to prove the existence of purpose for using PET tests in patients with periodontal diseases in planning the prosthetic treatment. Patients and Methods: We have examined 8 patients who had reported the need for filling in dental shortages that were also diagnosed with inflammation of periodontium. For identifying the periopathogens in gingival pocket we used PET test by MIP Pharma. Results: Despite the removal of dental plaque a satisfactory state of periodontium was not achieved. After the PET test and the employment of specific antibiotic therapy the state of periodontium was significantly improved and thus prosthetic fillings were made available. In patients examined after a year's time there were no observable inflammations in periodontal region. Summary: Microbiological analysis of gingival pockets during periodontal inflammations makes for a good support in diagnostics and prognosis. Despite copious bibliography on the issue and constant development of analytical techniques, using this type of diagnostics in everyday practice is still rare and in need of popularization. PET test is a perfect tool for identifying the periopathogens and ascertaining the antibiotic therapy needed. <br/><br/>
