About this trial

The present study will be performed on fourty-five patients suffering from periodontitis according to the criteria of American academy of periodontology to evaluate clinically effect of topical application of insulin versus hyaluronic acid as an adjunct to non surgical periodontal therapy in stage Ⅲ periodontitis patients.

This will be done by:

1. Clinical assessment. 2. Biochemical analysis. - Dose the topical application of insulin or hyaluronic acid as an adjunct to non-surgical periodontal therapy improves periodontal condition in stage Ⅲ periodontitis patients? PICO P (Population): patients with stage Ⅲ periodontitis. I (Intervention): non surgical periodontal therapy (SRP) with topical application using insulin or hyaluronic acid in periodontal pockets.

C (Comparison): topical application of insulin versus hyaluronic acid and SRP alone in periodontal pocket.

O (Outcome): primary outcome: change in periodontal pocket depth (PPD) or clinical attachment loss (CAL). Secondary outcome: change in gingival index (GI) or bleeding on probing index (BOP) and levels of IL-1β in GCF of treated pocket.

Study type: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs).

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Periodontal pocket depth (PPD)

(PD) measured in (mm) from free gingival margin to the base of the pocket at six sites per tooth (mesiobuccal and mesiolingual, distobuccal and distolingual, and mid-buccal and mid-lingual regions).

Time frame
3-6 months
2

Clinical attachment loss (CAL)

(CAL) measured in(mm)from the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) to the base of the pocket at the same previous six sites per tooth.

Time frame
3-6 months

Secondary outcomes

1

Change in gingival index (GI)

(GI) index measured at 4 sites per tooth (buccal, mesial, distal, and lingual).

Time frame
3-6 months follow up
2

Change in bleeding on probing index (BOP)

(BOP) determined by the presence or absence of bleeding (with in15 sec.) after periodontal probing.

Time frame
3-6 months follow up
3

Change in levels of IL-1β in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of treated pocket

Using the Bioassay Technology Laboratory IL-1β ELISA kit to determine levels of IL-1β in (GCF) using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

Time frame
3-6 months follow up

Other outcomes

1

Plaque index (PI)

PI describe by scores according to Loe H and Sillness J.

Time frame
From 3 to 6 months
