A Comparative Evaluation Of Serum Lipid Profile And Uric Acid Levels In Chronic And Aggressive Periodontitis Patients Before And After Non Surgical Periodontal Therapy .
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 9
Abstract
Introduction: Periodontal disease is an infectious disease which results in an increase in inflammatory cytokines, leading to mobilization of lipids from the liver and adipose tissue. Aim: Aim of the present study was to evaluate serum lipid profile and uric acid levels in patients with aggressive and chronic periodontitis before and after non-surgical periodontal therapy. Materials and methods: Ten patients in Group A with chronic generalized gingivitis, Group B chronic periodontitis patients having a mean pocket depth of 6mm, in Group C, aggressive periodontitis patients with a mean pocket depth of 7mm. were . Blood was collected at baseline and 3 months after scaling and root planning. Results: The results revealed that there was a reduction in PI, GI, probing depth, CAL. The lipid parameters and uric acid levels improved after non-surgical periodontal therapy in Group B and Group C patients. Conclusion: Successful non-surgical periodontal therapy improves serum lipid concentration and increases serum uric acid levels.
