Salivary C1P and PGE2 Levels in Periodontitis Patients With T2DM and Effect of Non-Surgical Periodontal Treatment

Diabetes and periodontal disease are the most common chronic multifactorial and inflammatory diseases in humans, and there is a bidirectional relationship between type 2 diabetes and periodontitis. With the negative effects of the control of these two diseases, it results in an increase in the severity of diabetes and periodontitis, and they affect many systems together. To elucidate the role of ceramide, which is one of the possible biochemical mechanisms between diabetes and the degree of glycemic control and periodontitis, in inflammation. Aim of this study is the measurement of C1P and PGE2 in saliva and the effect of non-surgical periodontal treatment, which includes the degree of control of diabetes, oral hygiene education, tooth surface cleaning and root surface arrangement, on 3 months.

A total of 102 subjects were included. Clinical periodontal measurements, saliva samples were collected from each individual at baseline and 3 months after non-surgical periodontal treatmet in periodontitis groups. Salivary C1P and PGE2 levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method.

Treatment and study plan

Non-surgical periodontal treatment

Procedure

Routine non-surgical periodontal treatment will be applied to patients with periodontitis. The main aim of non-surgical periodontal treatment is to protect, heal and maintain the existing dentition. For this purpose, using manual, sonic or ultrasonic instruments, microbial dental plaque and calculus are removed by tooth surface cleaning and root surface straightening.

Other names: phase I periodontal therapy, scaling and root planing, full mouth debridement

ELISA test

Diagnostic Test

C1P and PGE2 levels in saliva samples obtained, and will be examined by ELISA test.

periodontal examination

Other

All diagnostic procedures were performed with examination instruments (periodontal probe, dental mirror, x-ray device, etc.). Periodontal clinical index measurements (PI, GI, BOP, PPD, CAL) recorded from all teeth. Routine panoramic radiographs were taken from all patients to determine alveolar bone resorption. Vertical/horizontal bone losses on the radiographs were evaluated and used in the diagnosis of periodontitis.

Saliva sample collection

Other

Saliva samples were collected from all subjects in the morning. Unstimulated saliva from each patient was collected by standard defined spitting method without stimulation.

HbA1c Level

Diagnostic Test

Measurement of HbA1c levels from blood tests

Primary outcomes

  1. PGE2 levels in saliva

    Time frame: baseline to 3 months after treatment

    Change in saliva PGE2 levels from baseline to 3 months after non-surgical periodontal treatment

  2. C1P levels in saliva

    Time frame: baseline to 3 months after treatment

    Change in saliva C1P levels from baseline to 3 months after non-surgical periodontal treatment

  3. HbA1c levels

    Time frame: baseline to 3 months after treatment

    Blood test in routine biochemistry laboratory for evaluation of the change in HbA1c levels of patients with type 2 diabetes from baseline to 3 months after non-surgical periodontal treatment

Secondary outcomes

  1. Plaque index (PI)

    Time frame: baseline to 3 months after treatment

    The changes in PI from baseline to 3 months after non-surgical periodontal treatment

  2. Bleeding on probing index (BOP)

    Time frame: baseline to 3 months after treatment

    The changes in BOP from baseline to 3 months after non-surgical periodontal treatment

  3. Gingival index (GI)

    Time frame: baseline to 3 months after treatment

    The changes in GI from baseline to 3 months after non-surgical periodontal treatment

  4. Probing pocket depth

    Time frame: baseline to 3 months after treatment

    The changes in probing pocket depth from baseline to 3 months after non-surgical periodontal treatment

  5. Clinical attachment level (CAL)

    Time frame: baseline to 3 months after treatment

    The changes in CAL from baseline to 3 months after non-surgical periodontal treatment
