Effects of periodontal tissue regeneration combined with orthodontics on periodontitis / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effects of periodontal tissue regeneration combined with orthodontics on periodontitis.Methods:Eighty-six patients with periodontitis who received treatment in the Yongkang First People's Hospital, China between January 2017 and December 2018 were included in this study. They were randomly assigned to receive either periodontal tissue regeneration (control group, n = 43) or periodontal tissue regeneration combined with orthodontics (observation group, n = 43). Periodontal function, clinical efficacy, complications and patient satisfaction were compared between the control and study groups. Results:Before treatment, there were no significant differences in plaque index, gingival bleeding index, probing depth, bleeding on probing and attachment loss between the control and study groups (all P > 0.05). After treatment, plaque index, gingival bleeding index, probing depth, bleeding on probing and attachment loss in the observation group were (0.85 ± 0.27) points, (0.64 ± 0.25) points, (2.25 ± 0.24) mm, (34.30 ± 0.48)% and (3.70 ± 0.55) mm, respectively, and they were (1.36 ± 0.30) points, (1.24 ± 0.53) points, (3.49 ± 0.38) mm, (57.88 ± 0.75) %, and (4.61 ± 0.92) mm, respectively. There were significant differences in these indexes between the observation and control groups ( t = 8.286, 6.714, 18.092, 173.648, 5.567, all P < 0.05). Total effective rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [95.35% (41/43) vs. 79.07% (34/41), χ2 = 5.108, P < 0.05). Total effective rate in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [2.33% (1/43) vs. 16.28% (7/43), χ2 = 4.962, P < 0.05]. Patient satisfaction in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(91.17 ± 3.52) points vs. (84.43 ± 2.50) points, t = 10.237, P < 0.05]. Conclusion:Periodontal tissue regeneration combined with orthodontics on periodontitis for treatment of periodontitis is highly safe and effective. It can promote the recovery of oral function and increase patient satisfaction.
