Safety and feasibility of Minocycline Hydrochloride Ointment and metronidazole membrane in the treatment of periodontal abscess / 中国生化药物杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the safety and feasibility of Minocycline Hydrochloride Ointment and metronidazole membrane in the treatment of periodontal abscess.Methods80 cases of patients with periodontal abscess in our hospital from May 2014 to May 2016 were selected, these patients were randomly divided into Minocycline Hydrochloride Ointment group (n=40) and metronidazole membrane group (n=40) two groups, the periodontal probing depth, gingival bleeding index, plaque index, attachment loss, clinical efficacy, the incidences of adverse reactions and recurrence of the two groups were statistically analyzed.ResultsThe periodontal probing depth, gingival bleeding index, plaque index, attachment loss of the Minocycline Hydrochloride Ointment group were significantly lower (P<0.05), the total treatment efficiency 95% (38/40) was significantly higher than the metronidazole membrane group 77.5% (31/40) (P<0.05), the recurrence rate 2.5% (1/40) was significantly lower than the metronidazole membrane group 15% (6/40) (P<0.05), but the difference of the incidences of adverse reactions 10% (4/40), 7.5% (3/40) between the two groups was not significant.ConclusionMinocycline Hydrochloride Ointment metronidazole membrane in the treatment of periodontal abscess has higher safety and feasibility than metronidazole membrane, so is worthy of promotion in the clinical.
