Detailed Description

Periodontitis and diabetes affect the course and outcome of each other. Many studies have shown that for patients with periodontitis, concomitant diabetes can aggravate the destruction of periodontal tissue and accelerate the progression of periodontitis, which is an important risk factor for periodontitis. Affected by diabetes, patients with poor glycemic control have worse periodontal status, and the prognosis of periodontitis treatment is more suspicious. Conversely, periodontitis also affects diabetic status, and periodontitis is associated with dysglycemia, increased insulin resistance, and increased risk of diabetic complications. After periodontal therapy, it is expected to reduce the level of systemic inflammation and ultimately improve glycemic control and overall prognosis of diabetes. However, the treatment of periodontitis with diabetes is still a challenge, and how to improve the prognosis of patients with periodontitis with type 2 diabetes remains to be studied.

BioGaia Prodentis is a probiotic chewable tablet containing Lactobacillus reuteri (combination of L. reuteri DSM 17938 and L. reuteri ATCC 5289). Studies have shown that the use of the probiotics has an additional effect on periodontal therapy. However, in the periodontitis patients with type 2 diabetes, whether the use of this probiotic can improve the effect of periodontal therapy, few relevant research have published.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Probiotics-Probiotics

The participants would use probiotics in Stage 1(before non-surgical periodontal treatment) and Stage 2 (after non-surgical periodontal treatment).

Dietary Supplement: Probiotics-Probiotics
The participant uses probiotics (BioGaia Prodentis, L. reuteri DSM 17938+L. reuteri ATCC 5289, 0.8g, qn) for 30 days after enrollment. Then the participant would receive non-surgical periodontal treatment, after which the participant uses probiotics (BioGaia Prodentis, L. reuteri DSM 17938+L. reuteri ATCC 5289, 0.8g, qn) for another 30 days.

Experimental: Probiotics-Control

The participants would use probiotics in Stage 1(before non-surgical periodontal treatment).

Dietary Supplement: Probiotics-Control
The participant uses probiotics (BioGaia Prodentis, L. reuteri DSM 17938+L. reuteri ATCC 5289, 0.8g, qn) for 30 days after enrollment. Then the participant would receive non-surgical periodontal treatment, after which the participant does not use probiotics.

Experimental: Control-Probiotics

The participants would use probiotics in Stage 2 (after non-surgical periodontal treatment).

Dietary Supplement: Control-Probiotics
The participant does not use probiotics after enrollment. Then the participant would receive non-surgical periodontal treatment, after which the participant uses probiotics (BioGaia Prodentis, L. reuteri DSM 17938+L. reuteri ATCC 5289, 0.8g, qn) for 30 days.

Experimental: Control-Control

The participants would not use probiotics.

Dietary Supplement: Control-Control
The participant does not use probiotics before and after non-surgical periodontal treatment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Probing depth [change from baseline to day 90]

    measured at six sites of each implant (mesio-labial/buccal, mid-labial/buccal, disto-labial/buccal, mesio-palatal/lingual, mid-palatal/lingual, and disto-palatal/lingual) using a periodontal probe (UNC15)

  2. Microorganism [change from baseline to day 90]

    measured by 16s rDNA in subgingival plaque and faces

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Gingival index [day 0, 30, 90, 150]

    assessed at four sites of each implant (mesio-labial/buccal, mid-labial/buccal, disto-labial/buccal, and palatal/lingual) according to the index of Loe and Silness

  2. Gingival Recession [day 0, 30, 90, 150]

    The distance from the implant margin to the gingival margin was measured with a periodontal probe

  3. Bleeding of Probing [day 0, 30, 90, 150]

    bleeding after periodontal probing

  4. Fasting Blood Glucose [day 0, 30, 90, 150]

    Fasting Blood Glucose in blood

  5. HbA1c [day 0, 30, 90, 150]

    HbA1c in blood

  6. IL-1β、IL-6、TNF-α [day 0, 30, 90, 150]

    IL-1β、IL-6、TNF-α by ELISA in GCF
