The combination of metronidazole (MTZ) and systemic amoxicillin (AMX) for scaling and root planing (SRP) has been shown to be a promising protocol for the treatment of Stages III and IV, Grades B and C periodontitis. However, 30 to 40% of patients treated with this therapeutic approach do not achieve the clinical endpoint for the periodontal treatment suggested by Feres et al. (2012). Bes…
The combination of systemic metronidazole (MTZ) and amoxicillin (AMX) to scaling and root planing (SRP) has shown to be a promising periodontal treatment. However, some essential issues associated with the use of these antibiotics remain to be established. Although these agents are often prescribed after the healing phase of the SRP procedure, there is biological plausibility to support i…
Periodontitis is in considered a global health problem by the WHO. The search for the etiological agents associated with the etiology of periodontitis has lasted for more than three centuries. Advances in microbiological diagnostic techniques have been showing, with increasing resolution, the huge complexity of the interaction between the oral microbiota and the host. Molecular biology te…
Immune modulation therapy with omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and low-dose aspirin (ASA) as adjunct to Periodontal Debridement (PD) has shown superior results than PD alone for the treatment of Periodontitis in two Randomized Clinical Trials (RCTs) with follow-up of 6 months. However, to date no placebo-controlled RCT has evaluated the effects of this therapy has compared to/associat…
The aim of the present study will be to evaluate the effects of lithium chloride, a drug able of affecting bone cells in favor of bone formation being a potential candidate for treatment of osteoporosis, in the ligature-induced bone loss in rats with and without estrogen deficiency. Ninety-six Wistar rats (24 rats per group / 8 per experimental time) will be allocated into one of the foll…
The organization of the oral bacterial species into biofilms is a challenge for the control of periodontal diseases, since bacterias aggregate in biofilms have a high resistance to antimicrobial agents. The use of systemic antibiotics in the treatment of these infections has demonstrated clinical benefits; however, the possible development of bacterial resistance justifies the search for …
