|6. |Brief resume of the intended work: |
| | |
| |Need for the study: |
| | |
| |The primary goal of periodontal treatment is the maintenance of the natural dentition in health and comfortable function. When |
| |periodontal disease has caused a loss of the attachment apparatus, optimal care seeks to regenerate the periodontium to its |
| |pre-diseased state. Regeneration has been defined as the reproduction or reconstitution of a lost or injured part to restore the |
| |architecture and function of the periodontium. To be considered a regenerative modality, a material or technique must demonstrate |
| |that bone, cementum and a functional periodontal ligament can be formed on a previously diseased root surface. Bone grafts and their |
| |synthetic substitutes have been used in an attempt to gain this therapeutic endpoint1. |
| | |
| |The different types of bone grafts are autogenous bone grafts, allografts, Xeno grafts and alloplasts. (FisiograftTM) is a synthetic |
| |product made from a co-polymer of polylactic acid and polyglycolic acid. It is biocompatible and well tolerated due to the fact that |
| |it is reabsorbed and degraded in the Kreb’s cycle. PLA-PGA Copolymer functions as a space maintainer and also has osteoconductive |
| |properties and is available in gel, sponge and powder form2. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| |Review of Literature |
| | |
| |A study was done to evaluate the clinical outcome of reconstructive surgery in human deep intraosseous defects. |
| |Polylactide/polyglycolide (PLA/PGA) copolymer graft in conjunction with an open flap debridement procedure (test group) as compared |
| |to open flap debridement procedure alone (control group) was used. 32 patients were selected and divided into 2 groups with a 12 |
| |month follow-up period. Clinical recordings assessed at baseline, 6 months and 12 months proved that the additional use of PLA/PGA |
| |did not provide an additional benefit in terms of CAL gain and PD reduction compared with OFD procedure3. |
| |A study was done to compare the effectiveness of PLA granules to Decalcified freeze-dried bone graft and a flap procedure for |
| |debridement without graft in the treatment of periodontal intrabony defects. 10 patients presenting with advanced adult periodontitis|
| |including atleast 3 similar osseous defects comprising the study group were treated. Post surgery it was assessed that DFDBA produced|
| |a greater amount of osseous defect fill, FPD less fill and PLA the least amount of fill4. |
| |A pilot study was done to evaluate the healing of large defects in the human jaw filled with PLG polymer by means of clinical, |
| |radiological and histological methods and to compare the results with those of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) clot or autologous bone |
| |(AB) fillings. 19 consenting males with bone cysts were split into 3 groups, packed with PRP, AB or PLG respectively. Postsurgery |
| |outcomes were best with AB graft, but suitable results were achieved using PLG to promote healing of severe bone defects5. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| |A study was done to evaluate the degree of bone mineralization in the alveolar sockets 3 months following the use of a bioabsorbable |
| |graft material (FisiograftTM). Evaluation of the degree of resorption of the grafted material was also done. The results indicated |
| |that the use of a bio-absorbable synthetic sponge of polylactide-polyglycolide acid did not interfere with the formation of new bone |
| |in the alveolar sockets. The biocompatibility, safety and characteristics of (Fisiograft TM) suggest that the material is suitable |
| |for filling alveolar sockets following extractions6. |
| | |
| |A study was conducted in which polyglycolic-polylactic copolymer (FisiograftTM) was used in the treatment of periodontal intrabony |
| |defects. 2 cases were presented one with a periodontal abscess and damaged interradicular alveolar bone and the other case was in a |
| |patient with an extensive intrabony defect. After scaling and root planing both the defects were filled with the (FisiograftTM) |
| |material. 6months after the procedure the radiograph showed considerably reduced radiolucency, and the depth of the periodontal |
| |pocket was reduced by around 50%. In both the cases the application of (Fisiograft TM) proved successful in the process of healing |
| |alveolar bone damaged by periodontitis7. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| |6.3 Objective of the study: |
| | |
| | |
| |To evaluate the clinical efficacy of PLA-PGA Copolymer sponge in the periodontal osseous defects. |
| |Radiographic assessment of the ability of PLA-PGA Copolymer sponge to bring about the bone fill in the intrabony periodontal defects.|
| |To evaluate its influence on clinical parameters like pocket probing depth and clinical attachment level. |

| |Materials and methods |
| | |
| |7.1 Source of data |
| |Subjects for the study will be selected from the out patients visiting the Department of |
| |Periodontics, A. B. Shetty Memorial Institute of Dental Sciences, Deralakatte |
| |Mangalore. |
| | |
| |7.2 Method of collection of data. |
| | |
| |The study is to be conducted on 10 patients between the age group of 25-50 yrs having intrabony periodontal defects on contralateral |
| |sides. |
| | |
| |SCREENING EXAMINATION INCLUDES |
| |Medical history |
| |Dental history |
| |Periodontal status will be assessed using Gingival Index (Loe & Silness) and Plaque Index (Silness & Loe). |
| |Probing depth and clinical attachment levels will be measured using William’s graduated probe. |
| |Phase I therapy is to be carried out in all patients prior to the surgery and oral hygiene instructions are to be given. Clinical |
| |parameters like plaque index, gingival index, pocket probing depth and clinical attachment levels should be recorded at baseline. |
| |Radiographic assessment is to be done by taking orthopantomographs and Intra oral periapical radiographs prior to surgery. |
| | |
| | |
| |SURGICAL PROCEDURES AND PLACEMENT OF THE GRAFT MATERIAL |
| | |
| |The defects chosen are randomly assigned for either open flap debridement or for the placement of the copolymer sponge material. The |
| |surgical area should be anaesthetised, incisions are to be placed and a full thickness mucoperiosteal flaps are to be reflected to |
| |gain complete access to the defect. Defects are carefully debrided and the root surfaces are scaled and root planed thoroughly and |
| |then filled with the PLA-PGA Copolymer sponge upto the existing alveolar crest. Primary closure with the suture is obtained by tying |
|7 |knots. Sutures are also placed at the control sites after thorough debridement. Periodontal dressing is to be placed on the surgical |
| |areas. |
| |Patients should be prescribed antibiotics and analgesics for 5 days and are also instructed to use 0.2% Chlorhexidine mouthwash. |
| |Postoperative instructions are to be given and the patients have to be recalled on the 7th day for suture removal and after 1 month |
| |for check-up. Clinical parameters and radiographic assessments are to be done at 6 and 9 months postoperatively. Standardisation of |
| |the intraoral periapical radiographs will be done by the use of an intraoral grid. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
