Non-surgical treatment of chronic periodontitis with vitamin E and coenzyme Q10 supplementation

Detailed Description

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

This research was structured as a double-blind, randomized clinical trial to assess the effectiveness of CoQ10 and Vitamin E supplements on periodontal health in patients with chronic periodontitis. A total of 120 patients from the Department of Periodontics at Boroujerd Dental School of the Islamic Azad University of Medical Sciences were chosen for the study. Before the commencement of the trial, various clinical periodontal parameters such as plaque index, bleeding on probing, gingival index, probing depth, and clinical attachment level were measured in six different areas of the tooth surface. Subsequently, scaling and root planning were carried out, and oral hygiene practices were enhanced for all participants. The participants were then randomly divided into three groups: Group A received 30 mg of CoQ10, Group B received 400 mg of Vitamin E supplements daily, and Group C did not receive any medication. After two months, the clinical periodontal parameters were reevaluated. Furthermore, to compare the total antioxidant capacity in saliva before and after the administration of these supplements, as well as in patients who did not receive any medication, 2 ml of non-stimulated saliva was collected from each participant at the beginning and end of the study for analysis using UV-spectrophotometric methods. The selection criteria for eligible participants in this study were also clearly defined.

Participants Caregivers Investigators Outcome Assessors
The study was carried out utilizing a double-blind approach. In order to guarantee objectivity, all three groups - the Vitamin E group, the Coq10 group, and the control group - received medications that were indistinguishable in terms of appearance, packaging, and color. Additionally, to minimize any potential bias, a clinician who had no association with the research labeled the medications as A, B, and C (empty) based on their content, and then distributed them among the patients.

Study Groups

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

Vitamin E

Participants in Group A were administered 400 mg of Vitamin E supplements on a daily basis throughout the two-month study period. After the study concluded, the clinical periodontal parameters were reevaluated to assess any potential impact of the supplements on oral health.. To compare the total antioxidant capacity in saliva before and after the consumption of the Vitamin E supplements, as well as in individuals who did not receive any form of medication, 2 ml of non-stimulated saliva was collected from each participant at the commencement and conclusion of the study. These samples were then analyzed using UV-spectrophotometric methods to determine any variations in antioxidant levels.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Receive 30 mg of Coq10

Intervention Type DRUG

A total of 120 individuals diagnosed with chronic periodontitis were selected for this study. These participants were randomly assigned to two different groups. The purpose of the study was to measure the periodontal parameters of the two molars adjacent to the mandible using a periodontal probe. All of the patients received scaling and root planing (SRP) as part of their treatment. However, the treatment groups differed in terms of the supplements they received. Group A was given a daily dose of Coq10 at 30 mg, while Group B received a daily dose of Vitamin E at 400 mg; Furthermore, group C did not receive any supplements. The periodontal examination involved a total of 300 teeth across the three groups. In addition to this, 2 ml of unstimulated saliva was collected from each patient both before and after 2 months. The purpose of collecting the saliva samples was to evaluate the total antioxidant capacity and determine if there were any changes over time.

Coq10

Participants in Group B were administered a daily dose of 30 mg of Coq10 supplements for two months. Following the study period, the clinical periodontal parameters were reevaluated to assess any potential impact of the supplements on oral health. To compare the total antioxidant capacity of saliva before and after the consumption of Coq10 supplements, as well as in individuals who did not receive any medication, 2 ml of non-stimulated saliva was collected from each participant at the commencement and conclusion of the study. The collected samples were then analyzed using UV-spectrophotometric methods to determine any variations in antioxidant levels.

Group A was given a daily dose of Coq10 at 30 mg, while Group B received a daily dose of Vitamin E at 400 mg; Furthermore, group C did not receive any supplements. The periodontal examination involved a total of 300 teeth across the three groups. In addition to this, 2 ml of unstimulated saliva was collected from each patient both before and after 2 months. The purpose of collecting the saliva samples was to evaluate the total antioxidant capacity and determine if there were any changes over time.

no-medication;

Group C was not administered any medication during the study period lasting two months. Following this period, the clinical periodontal parameters were evaluated once again. Moreover, to analyze the total antioxidant capacity in saliva before and after the consumption of these supplements, as well as in individuals who were not given any medication, 2 ml of non-stimulated saliva was gathered from every participant at the commencement and conclusion of the study. This analysis was conducted using UV-spectrophotometric techniques.
