ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the adjuvant effect of initial periodontal therapy by observing the eradiation rate of gastric helicobacter pylori( Hp) in the patients with gastric ulcer treated by the therapy. Methods:Totally 88 patients with stomach ulcer and chronic periodontitis were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups. The control group was treated by triple therapy,the experimental group was treated by initial periodontal therapy additionally with the treatment course of one month. The changes of Hp in stomach and periodontium were observed and the eradiation rate of Hp was compared between the two groups respectively after 1-, 3-, 6-and 12-month treatment. Results:After 3, 6 and 12 months, the eradiation rate in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the other group (P < 0. 05). Conclusion: Initial periodontal therapy combined with triple therapy can obviously improve the eradication rate of gastric Hp in the patients with gastric ulcer and chronic periodontitis.
