Methods: A total of 192 patients diagnosed with chronic periapical periodontitis were selected and randomly divided into control group (distilled water), hydrogen peroxide group, sodium hypochlorite group and gallnut extract group (n=48). In the process of root canal treatment, four irrigants were used respectively, then the curative effects 1 week, 6 months, 12 months after treatment were observed and compared. Results: After root filling treatment, the cold and heat stimulation of the tooth was insensitive in clinical examination, percussion (-), loose degree≤ I°, no swollen gums, bleeding on probing (-), no fistula, normal function of the exercise of chewing, decreased or disappeared transmission area in periapical bone in X-ray photo, and those metioned above were considered effective treatment. After 6 months of treatment, the effective rate in gallnut group was 89.4%, and there were no statistically significant differences compared with hydrogen peroxide group (91. 1%) and sodium hypochlorite group (91. 5%) (P>0. 05), but there was significant difference compared with control group (67.4%) (P0. 05), but the ratio of tooth from improvement to recovery in gallnut group was higher than those in hydrogen peroxide group and sodium hypochlorite group. Conclusion: Gallnut extract as a root canal irrigants has good antibacterial and cleaning effect, and can achieve the aim of curing the chronic root periapical inflammation and preventing the infection.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of Chinese traditional medicine-Shuanghuangbu combined with Xipayi Mouth Rinse on the periodontal indexes of the peri-implantitis patients,and to detect the curative effect of Shuanghuangbu combined with Xipayi Mouth Rinse in the treatment of peri-implantitis.Methods: A total of 40 patients diagnosed as peri-implantitis were randomly divided into control group and Chinese traditional medicine group (n=20).All of the patients received supragingival scaling and subgingival scaling,and then the peri-implant pocket of the patients in Chinese traditional medicine group were washed with Xipayi Mouth Rinse,while the fine probe slided slowly along the inner wall of peri-implant pocket into the bottom and retained the Shuanghuangbu,and retreated gently and made the medicine overflow the gingival margin.The patients in control group were given 3% hydrogen peroxide and 0.9% sodium chloride injection washed by turns.The indexes of covering modified plaque index (mPLI),probing pocket depth (PPD),modified sulcular bleeding index (mSBI)of the patients in two groups at baseline and after treatment were detected;Whatman# 1 was applied to aspirate the peri-implant sulcus fluid (PISF)which were weighed at baseline and after treatment,and the level of interleukin-1β (IL-1β)in PISF was analyzed by ELISA method.Results:No differences were observed in age,sex,periodontal indexes, weights of PISF and IL-1βlevels of the patients in two groups before treatment (P >0.05).Compared with before treatment,the indexes including PPD,mSBI,mPLI,weight of PISF and IL-1βlevel in PISF of the patients in two groups were decreased after treatment (P < 0.05).After treatment,the differences in mSBI,mPLI,weight of PISF and IL-1β level in PISF of the patients between control group and Chinese traditional medicine group were significant (P <0.05).Compared with control group,the PPD level of the patients in Chinese traditional medicine group was decreased,but the difference was not significant (P >0.05).Conclusion:The curative effect of Chinese traditional medicine-Shuanghuangbu combined with Xipayi Mouth Rinse is obsious,and the treatment can improve the periodontal status and reduce the level of IL-1βin PISF.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the repair effect of nano hydroxyapatite/magnesium(nHA-Mg)porous composite material modified by poly lactic acid/glycolic acid copolymer(PLGA) on the jaw bone defect of rabbits,and to elucidate the mechanisms preliminary.Methods:The mandibular defect models of 10 mm×5 mm×1 mm in the 18 rabbits were established.Nine rabbits were selected and implanted with nHA-Mg composite materials modified by PLGA in the left as experimental group and the right as blank control group;the other nine were implanted with nHA-Mg in the left as positive control group and the right as blank control group.The rabbits were sacrificed at 4, 8, 12 weeks (respectively 3 of experimental group and positive control group every time)and the mandibular defect areas were intercepted and observed by imaging and histological examination;the sizes of the newborn trabecula area and residual materials in experimental group and positive control group were compared.Results:Compared with positive control group and blank control group, the percentage of newborn trabecula area of the rabbits in experimental group was increased (P0.05).The imaging results showed that the new bone formation can be observed in experimental group and better than positive control group and blank control group.The paraffin section results indicated that there were visible vascular tissue and newborn trabecula,the osteoblasts gathered around the bone trabecula;a lot of pits were located in the bone trabecula, and the pits contained osteocytes in experimental group.As the prolongation of time,thickened newborn trabecula, dense arrangement and trend of converting to lamellar bone were observed in experimental group.The hard tissue section results showed that the remaining amount of materials in experimental group was more than that in positive control group.Conclusion:nHA-Mg porous composite materials modified by PLGA can effectively reduce the rate of degradation in the body, promote osteogenesis and guide the bone regeneration.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To use polylactic-co-glycolic acid(PLGA) as vector material to prepare the compound total flavonoids of Rhizoma Drynariae(TFRD) and total flavonoids of Chrysanthemum(TFC) sustained release microcapsule TF-PLGA microcapsules,and to investigate the the best preparation technique of TF-PLGA microcapsules and their sustained release characteristics in vitro.Methods:The TF-PLGA microcapsules were prepared with TFRD,TFC,and PLGA by emulsifying-solvent evaporation technique under certain conditions.With the encapsulation efficiency(EE) as the evaluation indicator,the optimal formulation was verified by single factor experiment and orthogonal design;the general morphology,the particle size and distribution of the microcapsules were observed by light microscope(LM) and scanning electron microscope(SEM);the cumulative drug release rate of TF-PLGA microcapsules was detected by constant temperature commotion method in vitro and the release curves of the TF-PLGA were drawn.Results:The optimal prescription was as follows:the concentration of PLGA was 140 g·L-1,oil phase volume was 1.4 mL,emulsifying speed was 900 r·min-1,emulsifying time was 5 min,the average EE was(83.89±2.30)%,and the average drug loading rate(DL) was(5.90±0.07)%.The LM and SEM resluts showed that the TF-PLGA microcapsules presented as round ball,the average particle size was(44.34±14.68)μm,and the distribution was relatively narrow.The drug release in vitro results showed that the initial drug release rate(24 h)was about 40%,and the cumulative drug release rate was over 90% after 50 d.Conclusion:The TF-PLGA sustained release microcapslue has better drug-loaded and sustained-release effects with simple preparation technique and better repeatability.
