This case report aims to demonstrate scalpel excision as an effective and convenient surgical treatment for the management of the fibroma in patient having anticoagulant drug instead of using electrical, laser, or cryosurgery. A female patient, 70 years old, reported to the department with a chief complaint of painless swelling in the right lower posterior tooth region for the past 2 years. On examination, the lesion was found to be a well circumscribed, smooth, tender, firm, and lobulated pink swelling 1x0.8x0.5 cm in diameter positioned on the buccal mucosa of the right molar region. Surgical therapy was carried out by scalpel excision, followed by medication for the management.

Aim: To evaluate and compare the efficacy of subgingivally delivered 1% Metformin gel and Chlorhexidine gel as an adjunct to scaling and root planing in the management of patients with chronic periodontitis. Materials and Method: Twenty systemically healthy patients with the age group of 20-60 years irrespective of gender suffering from generalized chronic periodontitis were selected, in which fourty sites were randomized at split mouth level and divided into two groups: (Group A -SRP+1% Metformin gel and Group B - SRP+ 0.2% Chlorhexidine gel). Parameters such as, Plaque index (PI), Modified gingival index (MGI), Probing pocket depth (PPD), and Relative clinical attachment level (R-CAL) were measured at baseline and after 1 month and 3 months. The significance of difference within and between the groups was evaluated with paired and unpaired t-tests. Result: In our study, the mean Plaque index (PI), Modified gingival index (MGI), Probing pocket depth (PPD), and Relative clinical attachment level (R-CAL) showed a statistically significant difference from baseline to 1 month and 3 months (p≤0.05) in both Group A and Group B. But, Mean PPD reduction and mean R-CAL gain was found to be greater in Group-A than Group B at 1 month and 3 months. Conclusion: Both Metformin and 0.2% Chlorhexidine gel can be considered as effective as a LDD agent adjunct to scaling and root planning (SRP) in the management of chronic periodontitis.

Materials and methods: This systematic review includes necrotic immature permanent anterior teeth below 20 years of age using triple antibiotic paste as an intra-canal medicament and autologous platelet concentrates as scaffold. The interventional group was low concentration (≤2%) NaOCl and comparator group included high concentration (>2%) NaOCl as disinfectant. Cochrane risk of bias assessment 2 (RoB 2) tool was used for assessment of risk of bias. Included studies were evaluated for the absence of clinical signs and symptoms, increase in root length and apical closure on radiograph, and positive response to vitality testing. Results: After evaluation, seven studies were included. Clinical success rate was seen in 98.33% cases in low concentration (≤2%) and 95% cases in high concentration (>2%) NaOCl. The radiographic success rate was 86.66% in low concentration (≤2%) and 80% in high concentration (>2%) NaOCl disinfection. Positive response for vitality testing was seen in 46.66% cases in low concentration (≤2%) and 38.70% in high concentration NaOCl (>2%). Conclusion: Low concentration (≤2%) NaOCl is as effective as high concentration (>2%) to achieve disinfection of the root canal. However, an increased success rate is associated with the use of low concentration (≤2%) NaOCl. Response to pulp vitality is observed to be superior with low concentration (≤ 2%) NaOCl although it might be attributed to a longer follow-up period.","PeriodicalId":240291,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Dentistry Research","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129137267","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}

These limitations can be avoided by application of the antimicrobials in local drug delivery (LDD) systems directly into the periodontal pocket. Natural polymer chitosan which is found in abundance in nature has antibacterial, antiinflammatory properties and is biodegradable and biocompatible. Materials and Method: A randomized controlled split-mouth study was designed. 30 patients were randomly selected.A resorbable chitosan gel of 1% (w/v) was placed in the selected test sites one week after scaling and root planing (SRP). Gel was injected into the periodontal pockets using a blunt cannula till the pocket was completely filled. Periodontal dressing was applied after placement of the gel. The ancillary parameters were assessed. Results: Statistically significant difference was present in mean plaque index scores and modified gingival index scores at 1 month and 3 months from baseline in both the groups as chitosan shows a strong activity in reducing dental plaque against various periodontal pathogens. Statistically significant difference was present in pocket depth between group I and group II at 1 month and 3 month. Statistically, significant difference was present in Relative Attachment Level between group I and group II at 1 months and 3 months. Discussion: In this study Chitosan biopolymer, used in a gel form, (1% w/v) demonstrated the effectiveness for treatment of localized pockets in patients with chronic periodontitis.the results suggest chitosan has its own properties which causes reduction of pocket depth. Conclusion: Chitosan is an effective local drug delivery agent for chronic periodontitis patients.","PeriodicalId":240291,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Dentistry Research","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127055982","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}
