Abstract
Peri-implant mucosistis is similar to gingivitis, the former affects the mucosa around implants without bone loss. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of ozonated olive oil gel in the management of peri-implant mucositis. A randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted among 50 patients with peri-implant mucositis within the age group of 25-50 years. They were randomly divided into two groups with 25 participants in each group based on the intervention [Group A (Ozonated olive oil gel), Group B (Chlorhexidine gel)]. Silness and Loe plaque index (PI) and Loe and Silness gingival index (GI) were recorded at baseline and after 4 weeks. Paired t-test and independent t-test was used to test the significance. Within the groups, there was a statistically significant reduction in PI and GI from baseline (P < 0.05). However, the difference in PI and GI between both the groups was statistically insignificant (P > 0.05). Ozonated olive oil gel was equally effective to chlorhexidine gel in the management of peri-implant mucositis.
期刊介绍:
MEDICAL IMPLANTS are being used in every organ of the human body. Ideally, medical implants must have biomechanical properties comparable to those of autogenous tissues without any adverse effects. In each anatomic site, studies of the long-term effects of medical implants must be undertaken to determine accurately the safety and performance of the implants. Today, implant surgery has become an interdisciplinary undertaking involving a number of skilled and gifted specialists. For example, successful cochlear implants will involve audiologists, audiological physicians, speech and language therapists, otolaryngologists, nurses, neuro-otologists, teachers of the deaf, hearing therapists, cochlear implant manufacturers, and others involved with hearing-impaired and deaf individuals.
