    Association of socio-demographic, behavioral, and comorbidity-related factors with severity of periodontitis in Turkish patients
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020) Paksoy, Tugce; Ustaoglu, Gulbahar; Peker, Kadriye
    Objective: To assess the prevalence of comorbidities and periodontal diseases severity in dental patients and to determine the socio-demographic, behavioral, and comorbidity-related predictors of periodontal diseases severity. Material and methods: This retrospective study sample consisted of 2458 patients who referred to faculty dentistry clinic. Socio-demographic, behavioral, and comorbidity characteristics of study participants were collected using hospital database and self-reported questionnaire. Descriptive, bivariate, and multivariate analyses were used to analyze study data. Results: Of these patients, 55.2% had mild-to-moderate periodontitis and 44.8% had severe periodontitis. The severity of periodontal disease was significantly associated with the presence of comorbidity, the number of comorbidities, age, gender, income level, smoking, and alcohol consumption. Patients with severe periodontitis were more likely being a current smoker, to report drinking alcohol sometimes or every day, to be a male, to have a pulmonary disease, to have an endocrinological and metabolic disorder, to have a cardiovascular disorder and to have a neurological disorder than those with mild/moderate periodontitis. Having a hematological disorder, having a muscle, skeletal and connective tissue disorder, to be a current smoker and lower age were found to be predictors of moderate periodontitis whereas being a female and lower number of comorbidities were predictors of mild periodontitis. Conclusions: The severity of periodontitis was associated with socio-demographic, behavioral, and comorbidity characteristics of periodontal patients.

    Evaluation of Bacterial Colonization and Clinical Properties of Different Suture Materials in Dentoalveoler Surgery
    (W B Saunders Co-Elsevier Inc, 2022) Yaman, Deniz; Paksoy, Tugce; Ustaoglu, Gulbahar; Demirci, Mehmet
    Purpose: This study aimed to compare the effects of 10 different suture materials commonly used in dentoalveolar surgery on wound healing, their postoperative microbial colonization, and related clinical parameters. Methods: A total of 172 suture samples from patients who had undergone extraction of impacted third molars were included in the study. The suture materials studied were poly-glycolide-colactide, fast absorbable poly-glycolide-colactide, poly-glycolic acid-cocaprolactone, polydioxanone, silk, polypropylene, polyvinylidene difluoride, polyamide, polyester, and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). The microbial colonization in all sutures and clinical parameters were evaluated after 1 week. Results: Multifilament sutures had higher bacterial colonization compared with monofilament sutures (P < .001). No dental plaque accumulation was observed in any samples of polypropylene sutures. Polydioxanone, PTFE, and poly-glycolic acid-cocaprolactone sutures exhibited less postoperative slack compared with all other sutures after 1 week. Patients with silk, polyvinylidene difluoride, and PTFE sutures had less suture-related discomfort. According to the Landry index score, monofilament sutures demonstrated superior wound healing to multifilament sutures (P = .019). In addition, nonabsorbable sutures showed significantly better wound epithelization than absorbable sutures (P < .001). Conclusions: Bacterial colonization and tissue reactions due to the surface properties of the suture affected the wound healing after dentoalveolar surgery. Multifilament sutures should not be applied for prolonged periods because of their tendency for microbial colonization. The tissue reaction to the absorbable suture materials may adversely affect wound healing. (C) 2021 The American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons.

    Titanium-Prepared Platelet-Rich Fibrin Versus Connective Tissue Graft on Peri-Implant Soft Tissue Thickening and Keratinized Mucosa Width: A Randomized, Controlled Trial
    (W B Saunders Co-Elsevier Inc, 2020) Ustaoglu, Gulbahar; Paksoy, Tugce; Gumus, Kerem Caglar
    Purpose: The health of peri-implant tissues is associated with the peri-implant soft tissue thickness (STT) and keratinized tissue width (KTW). Resorptive changes in the crestal bone around implant sites will be affected by the STT. The present randomized prospective study compared the effectiveness of titanium-prepared platelet-rich fibrin (T-PRF) with that of connective tissue graft (CTG) on peri-implant STT, KMW, and crestal bone level. Patients and Methods: Through simultaneous augmentation of the soft tissue using T-PRF or CTG, 30 implants were placed in 30 patients. The implants were placed in thin, soft tissue areas and thickened simultaneously with a T-PRF membrane in the test group and a CTG in the control group. During surgery (T-0) and at 3 months postoperatively (T-1), the KTW and peri-implant STT were measured at 3 points: occlusal part of the alveolar crest (OAC), midbuccal mucosa level (MBML), and 1 mm above the mucogingival junction (MGJ1). The crestal bone changes were evaluated from a periapical radiograph at 3 months postoperatively. Results: The baseline STT and KTW measurements showed no significant differences between the 2 groups (P <.05). Comparison of the T-0 and T-1 measurements from the 2 groups showed a significant increase in KTW and STT (P <.001). Compared with the test group, the control group showed a highly significant increase in the peri-implant STT at the MBML, MGJ1, and KTW levels (P <.05). No significant difference was found between the 2 groups in terms of the OAC changes (P >.05). No crestal bone loss was observed in any of the dental implants. Conclusions: Both groups experienced a greater increase in peri-implant STTat the OAC level, and T-PRF can be considered as an autogenous alternative to CTG. Also, peri-implant STT might prevent crestal bone resorption in the osseointegration period. (C) 2020 American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons
