Brief Summary

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

Objective: To evaluate the impact of chemotherapy on periodontal conditions, hematology, and salivary flow in patients with breast cancer and gingivitis, after basic periodontal therapy (BPT).

Methods: They were divided into patients with breast cancer and gingivitis (BC/G =20); and patients without cancer with gingivitis (G=20). Clinical parameters \[Plaque Index (PI), bleeding on probing (BOP), Probing Depth (PS), Clinical Attachment Level (CAL)\], hematological parameters (complete blood count), and salivary flow were evaluated at baseline, 6, 12 and 24 weeks.

Study Groups

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

Breast cancer

The division was made into 2 groups: Patients with breast cancer and gingivitis (BC/G) (n=20); and control patients with gingivitis only (G) (n=20).

Clinical periodontal examinations were carried out by a single trained and calibrated examiner. Clinical periodontal, hematological and salivary flow parameters were assessed at baseline, 6 weeks, 12 and 24 weeks.

Group Type OTHER

Basic Periodontal Therapy

Intervention Type OTHER

All patients received oral hygiene instructions (interproximal cleaning with floss and interdental brushes, brushing instructions on the Bass technique). The patients were also encouraged to brush the back of the tongue once a day. Subsequently, all patients underwent supragingival scaling, prophylaxis, and polishing. Supragingival scaling was performed using manual instruments (Gracey curettes) and an ultrasonic device.
