Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

this study addresses the effect of the vitamin B3 and vitamin B9 on the periodontal healing at the sites of periodontal destruction due to periodontitis and evaluate its added effect to the conventional non-surgical periodontal treatment on its pivotal role in the biological activities and repair in the body in general and the periodontium in specific. The research will be conducted on patients suffering from stage I and II periodontitis that typically are to be treated with non surgical periodontal therapy, the rationale of the non surgical periodontal treatment is eliminating the plaque biofilm responsible for stimulation of host immune defense causing the inflammation and hence suppressing the periodontal destruction.

the trial is targeting enhancing the treatment effect by the administration of vitamin B3 and B9 supplements which will target the host inflammatory reaction itself and directly suppressing it as well as enhancing the periodontal regeneration and the gain of the lost attachment.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Vitamin B3 100 MG Oral Tablet
  • Drug: vitamin B9
  • Drug: Placebo
  • Procedure: full mouth non surgical periodontal treatment
Early Phase 1

Detailed Description

This study is a parallel group randomized, Double-blinded, Placebo-controlled clinical trial The follow up of this study is set to be in a three months interval in order to monitor the effect of the periodontal treatment with/without vitamin B-3 and B-9 supplement on the periodontal repair and regeneration

The eligible patients will be randomized into three groups with four interventions:
  1. Non-surgical scaling and debridement with placebo

  2. Non-surgical scaling and debridement with vitamin B-3

  3. Non-surgical scaling and debridement with vitamin B-9 Before intervention, a gingival cervicular fluid sample will be collected for all groups to measure the myeloperoxidase level at baseline before treatment then a full mouth scaling and debridement will be done by the primary investigator using ultrasonic scaler and periodontal curettes. After the non surgical treatment patients will be given oral hygiene instructions where they will be instructed to brush twice daily and shown how to brush using the horizontal scraping technique they will also be instructed to use the dental floss and shown how to use it. The systemically administered vitamin B or placebo capsules will then given to the patients and instructed to be taken once daily for 30 days. Patients are instructed not to take any vitamin B supplementations during the period of treatment, patients are also instructed to discontinue using the drug if any allergic reaction appeared and directly report it to the investigator.

Periodontal maintenance appointments which will include a review of medical and dental histories, supra- and subgingival instrumentation if needed, and oral hygiene instructions and motivation will be performed at 14, 30, 60 and 90 days.

Study Design

Study Type:
Interventional
Anticipated Enrollment :
30 participants
Allocation:
Randomized
Intervention Model:
Parallel Assignment
Masking:
Quadruple (Participant, Care Provider, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor)
Masking Description:
Trial medication will be dispensed in similar colored capsules, prepacked in similar opaque white plastic jars of 30 capsules each so that neither patient nor investigator (whom is also the care provider) will know whether patient was receiving vitamin B3, B9 or placebo. the outcome assessor will be given the data coded without knowing the data for the group of patients corresponding to which intervention group.
Primary Purpose:

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. change form the baseline in myeloperoxidase level in gingival crevicular fluid at 90 days [baseline and 90 days]

      biological sample of GCF will be collected and the enzyme level in GCF will be measured using The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)

    2. change form the baseline in clinical attachment level at 90 days [baseline and 90 days]

      Using a University of North Carolina probe (UNC) -15 measuring the distance from the cement-enamel junction to the base of the periodontal pocket at six sites of the tooth (mesiobuccal-distobucal-midbucal-mesiolingual-distolingual-midlingual)

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. change form the baseline in periodontal pocket depth at 90 days [baseline and 90 days]

      Using UNC15 periodontal probe measuring the distance from the gingival margin to the base of the pocket at six sites of the tooth (mesiobuccal-distobucal-midbucal-mesiolingual-distolingual-midlingual)

    2. change form the baseline in bleeding on probing at 90 days [baseline and 90 days]

      Using UNC15 periodontal probe at six sites of the tooth (mesiobuccal-distobucal-midbucal-mesiolingual-distolingual-midlingual) recorded at each site as present or absent

    3. change form the baseline in plaque index at 90 days [parameter will be evaluated at baseline and at 90 days]

      Manual UNC periodontal probe setting Scores of : 0: No plaque A film of plaque adhering to the free gingival margin and adjacent area of the tooth. The plaque may be seen in situ only after application of a disclosing solution or by using the probe on the tooth surface. Moderate accumulation of soft deposits within the gingival pocket, or the tooth and gingival margin, which can be seen with the naked eye. Abundance of soft matter within the gingival pocket and/or on the tooth and gingival margin.

    4. Patient satsification [Parameter will be evaluated at 90 days]

      VAS for patient satisfaction a Scale from 1-10 0 (completely dissatisfied)to 10 (completely satisfied).
