Brief Summary

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

Proper plaque control is essential for to maintain oral and general health therefore, improving patient motivation is crucial for to prevent oral diseases including periodontal diseases. The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of periodontal health education session (PHES) including the pathogenesis and consequences of periodontal diseases on oral hygiene motivation in patients with gingivitis.

Detailed Description

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

A randomized controlled clinical trial design with 50 subjects (26 Females and 24 males) was carried out in a group of gingivitis patients who underwent periodontal treatment. Subjects were randomly allocated into PHES group (test, n = 25) and standard oral hygiene education group (OHE) (control, n=25). Test group received information about the pathogenesis of periodontal diseases, its consequences, its interaction with systemic diseases and the importance of daily proper cleaning by experienced periodontologist via brochure. Control group received only standard oral hygiene instructions. The Rustogi Modified Navy Plaque index (RMNPI) and papillary bleeding index (PBI) were utilized to evaluate the oral hygiene at baseline and repeated at 1, 3 and 6 months follow-up.

The clinical outcome variables of RMNPI (primary outcome) and PBI (secondary outcome) scores were analysed with Mann Whitney U test. Friedman-Wilcoxon sign ranked test was used for within group comparison. All data were analysed using the Statistical software (SPSS, version 19.0, Chicago, IL, USA). A p-value of \<0.05 was accepted as statistical significance.

A total of 50 sealed envelopes were prepared in which the group names were written. Following, they were separated in two plastic boxes equally. The group of each participant was recorded by the first author whom the educational intervention was performed (SG). The examiner who performed the clinical process (BM) was unaware of the groups

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

periodontal health educational group (test)

25 subjects diagnosed with gingivitis received periodontal health education session

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Periodontal health education session

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

This session comprised of a condensed version of motivational interviewing and a periodontal education view/point. First, patients were analysed in terms of expectations from periodontal treatment/oral hygiene practice, knowledge about periodontal diseases and its consequences, daily oral hygiene routine, awareness of the current periodontal status and the main reasons for not doing proper brushing and interproximal cleaning. The same researcher who did not included in the clinic process informed the patients about how periodontal diseases develops, its aetiology, symptoms, consequences and the relationship with the important systemic disorders verbally and via brochure as well. The importance of the patients' own efforts about daily cleaning of the mouth were emphasized. Finally oral hygiene instructions, including brushing and flossing, were demonstrated to each patient after nonsurgical periodontal treatment.
