Laser therapy has been used in periodontics aiming at reducing bacteria to stimulate regeneration of tissue, and for its anti- inflammatory effect.Aim: To compare the clinical parameters, HbA1c level in blood & Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) level in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) in type 2 diabetes patients with chronic generalized periodontitis at baseline, 3 months and 6 months after scaling and root planing (SRP) alone and after SRP along with low-level laser therapy (LLLT). A total of 30 patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and having chronic generalized periodontitis were divided into 2 groups of 15 each. Control group was subjected to SRP only whereas the experimental group received six sessions LLLT along with SRP.Materials and methods: The clinical parameters namely Plaque Index (PI), Gingival Index, Bleeding on Probing, Probing Pocket Depth and Clinical Attachment Level along with HbA1c levels and TNF-α in GCF were evaluated at baseline, 3rd month and 6th month respectively. TNF-α was analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results: All periodontal parameters, HbA1c and TNF-α levels reduced superiorly in the experimental group as compared to control group at 3rd month interval.Conclusions: Adjunctive use of laser therapy has effects for 3 months on the clinical parameters and TNF-α values but 6 months effects on HbA1c levels and PI in type 2 DM patients. It is obvious that these effects are dose and wavelength sensitive.","PeriodicalId":13311,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Dental Research","volume":"36 1","pages":"64-68"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144173626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cervical vertebrae maturation is a reliable biological marker of skeletal maturity, and its use in combination with other techniques can enhance accuracy in age estimation.Aim: This study aimed to categorize individuals as under or over 18 years of age by evaluating cervical vertebrae and permanent molar maturation in the Dakshina Kannada population.Materials and methods: A total of 132 individuals were categorized into two groups: under 18 years and over 18 years. Data were collected using orthopantomograms (OPG) and lateral cephalograms (LC). Cervical vertebral age was determined using the McNamara and Franchi technique, while dental age was assessed using Nolla's method.Results: Age was significantly associated with the shape, inferior border, and stage of cervical vertebrae, as confirmed by Pearson's Chi-square test. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that combining skeletal and dental maturity indices improved the accuracy of age classification.Conclusion: Cervical vertebrae maturation, in conjunction with dental age estimation, serves as a reliable method for accurately determining age, particularly for distinguishing individuals over and under 18 years. The analysis revealed no significant difference in correlation between males and females, Additionally, the findings indicate that cervical vertebral maturation (CVM) can provide a rough estimate of age, demonstrating its potential utility in age prediction with reasonable accuracy.","PeriodicalId":13311,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Dental Research","volume":" ","pages":"75-80"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144127495","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The risk of various complications such as an increase in preterm low birth weight and preeclampsia raises a serious concern about the knowledge and awareness of pregnant women regarding periodontal health.Aim: To evaluate periodontal status and assess knowledge and awareness of poor oral health and its effect among pregnant women.Materials and methods: A total of 240 pregnant women underwent a questionnaire and observational evaluation. Socioeconomic demographic data based on the revised Kuppuswamy Socioeconomic Status Scale, age, gender, and medical & dental history were recorded using structural proforma. The Community Periodontal Index and Treatment Need (CPITN) index was used to evaluate the periodontal status of pregnant women in different trimesters.Result: A statistically significant association was observed between the CPITN score and trimesters. Out of 50 subjects with a CPITN score of 2, 46.0% were in the third trimester. On the evaluation of 240 subjects, 63.3% visited the dentist when a problem arose and 57.5% used interdental aids. Also, 45.4% of pregnant women encountered oral health problems during pregnancy. Furthermore, 81.3% of pregnant women were unaware of the adverse effects of poor oral health on a growing fetus.Conclusion: In the current study, it has been discovered that only a small percentage of pregnant women are conscious of their periodontal health and that their beliefs vary depending on their degree of education. When compared to the first trimester, the patients in the third trimester have impaired periodontal conditions.","PeriodicalId":13311,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Dental Research","volume":" ","pages":"7-11"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143795393","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
