Subjects and methods : Forty patients with stage I to stage II, grade A periodontitis were selected from the out-patient clinic, Oral Medicine and Periodontology Department, Faculty of Dental Medicine, Al-Azhar University, Assiut Branch. They were divided into four equal groups. Group I received conventional periodontal therapy alone, group II received conventional periodontal therapy with intra pocket application of hyaluronic acid gel (GENGIGEL) 0.2%, group III received conventional periodontal therapy with intra pocket application of metronidazole (25%) and group IV received conventional periodontal therapy with intra pocket application of combination of hyaluronic acid (0.2%) and metronidazole (25%). All patients were evaluated clinically at baseline, 3 and 6 months and biochemical evaluation was done at baseline,1 and 3 months to evaluate the IL-1β level in GCF. Results : All groups showed statistically significant differences at the different intervals in all clinical parameters (PI, GI, PD, CAL) and IL-1β level in GCF. Inter-groups comparison with respect to clinical and biochemical changes showed that Combination gel was the best. Conclusion : The combination of hyaluronic acid and metronidazole achieve superior effects as adjunctive therapy in improving the clinical and biochemical parameters in the treatment of periodontitis. periodontal disease is tooth loss (2) .

Subjects and Methods: this prospec-tive study included total of 40 children aged 5 to 12 years were included in this study, and the evaluation of periodontal disease was done using “Gingival Index (GI), Plaque Index (PI), and Clinical Attachment Loss (CAL)”; the blood glucose level was assessed using “Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c percent)”; and the patients were reevaluated after 3 months, 6 month and 9 month intervals. Results: The study comprised 40 children, 23 females and 17 males, with a mean age of 8.52 4.16. The two groups did not differ much. Both groups’ mean gingival index, plaque index, and clinical attachment level decreased over time. Group 1 had significantly lower mean gingival index, plaque index, and clinical attachment level scores than group 2 at baseline and three months post-intervention. Both groups’ mean HbA1c percent dropped with time. This decrease was only seen in group 2, and only between baseline and 9 months post-intervention in group 1. Conclusion: Determining the risk of periodontitis and associated consequences in poorly treated diabetic children should be a priority in this study. Children with severe periodontitis should also have their blood glucose levels checked. causes complications such as diabetic ketoacidosis, nephropathy, neuropathy, cardiovascular disease, and acute coronary syndrome.

Subjects and methods: 24 patients complained of an odontogenic cystic lesion in mandible classified into three groups, Group I (Ozone group): Included 8 patients with odontogenic cysts treated by Enucleation followed by Ozone gel application in the surgical cavity. Group II (HA group): Included 8 patients with odontogenic cysts treated by Enucleation followed by Hyaluronic acid application in the surgical cavity. Group III ( Control group): Included 8 patients with odontogenic cysts treated by Enucleation only. Postoperative one-month panoramic view, 3, 6 cone-beam C.T as the radiographic follow-up.

Results: The study showed a significant increase in the bone density of both group I (ozone), II (Hyaluronic acid) than the control group comparing the percentage of bone density to the contralateral bone, it was for group I (Ozone group) 45.8%, 69% at follow up of 3,6, months.
