Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Currently, with the increase of bacterial resistance to antibiotics associated with its side effects, it is necessary to find other adjuncts to combat the disease that are an alternative to the use of antibiotics. The use of probiotics has been proposed in the literature as an adjunct therapy for the treatment of periodontal diseases, however, few controlled and randomized clinical studies have been performed. The objective of this double-blind randomized controlled trial will be to evaluate the response of clinical and microbiological periodontal parameters to the comparison of two different adjuvant therapies (antibiotic and probiotic) for the treatment of stages II and III grade B periodontitis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Currently, with the increase of bacterial resistance to antibiotics associated with its side effects, it is necessary to find other adjuncts to combat the disease that are an alternative to the use of antibiotics. The use of probiotics has been proposed in the literature as an adjunct therapy for the treatment of periodontal diseases, however, few controlled and randomized clinical studies have been performed. The objective of this double-blind randomized controlled trial will be to evaluate the response of clinical and immunological periodontal parameters to the comparison of two different adjuvant therapies (antibiotic and probiotic) for the treatment of stages II and III grade B periodontitis. Patients will be randomized into 3 groups: Group 1 (n=15): periodontal debridement, Group 2 (n=15): periodontal debridement associated with antibiotic (Metronidazole 400 mg + Amoxicillin 500mg) and Group 3 (n=15): periodontal debridement associated with probiotic (Lactobacillus reuteri). Clinical (plaque index, gingival index, probing depth, gingival recession, relative clinical attachment level and periodontal inflamed surface area (PISA) index) and immunological data obtained before and after periodontal therapy (baseline, 30 and 90) will be consolidated and made available on average ± standard deviation and normality tested using the Shapiro-Wilk test. For statistical analysis, the software BioEstat 5.0 (Belém, PA, Brazil) will be used, with p-value \< 0,05.
