Is There an Interaction Between Recurrent Miscarriage and Dental Health
- Conditions
- MiscarriageOral Health
- Interventions
- Other: miscarriage
- Registration Number
- NCT03577314
- Lead Sponsor
- Recep Tayyip Erdogan University Training and Research Hospital
- Brief Summary
Oral infections can trigger the production of pro-inflammatory mediators that may be risk factors for miscarriage. The investigators investigated whether oral health care patterns that may promote or alleviate oral inflammation were associated with the history of miscarriage in Turkish women.
- Detailed Description
Power analysis was performed with the G-Power software package to determine sample size.
To cover possible data loss, 10% of a group were added to each group. Medical and dental examination will be performed both of control and experimental groups. In dental examination decayed, missing, or filled teeth (DMFT) index will be used according to World Health Organization (WHO 1997) criteria. All teeth were visually using the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS-II).
To analyze the correlation between oral health status and miscarriage linear regression test and for comparison of both the groups (case and control), two sample t test and chi square test were used.

Group Intervention Description healthy miscarriage 50 systemically healthy females with at least two normal births and no poor obstetric history such as preeclampsia and premature birth miscarriage miscarriage Patients were aged from 18 to 35 years, 50 females who have history of at least two unexplained recurrent miscarriage below 20th week of pregnancy
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method recurrent miscarriage below 20th week of pregnancy If abortion material is obtainable, it will be genetically evaluated for chromosomal abnormalities. At least 8 weeks after termination of pregnancy, karyotype analysis of both couples and thrombophilia panel ( Factor V Leiden, prothrombin gene mutation G20210A, protein S/Protein C/antithrombin deficiency and MTHFR mutations) in the study group will be requested.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Bleeding Examination 1 Day A single calibrated examiner measured bleeding on probing (BOP) 0: no bleeding
1: bleedingDental Examination 1 Day All teeth were visually using the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS-II). The chosen sites were recorded as:
0 = sound;
1. = first visible sign of noncavitated lesion seen only when the tooth is dried;
2. = visible noncavitated lesion seen when wet and dry;
3. = microcavitation in enamel;
4. = noncavitated lesion extending into dentine seen as an undermining shadow;
5. = small cavitated lesion with visible dentine: less than 50% of surface;
6. = large cavitated lesions with visible dentine in more than 50% of the surface.Periodontal Examination 1 Day A single calibrated examiner measured probing depth-PD, 0: healthy
1. bleeding
2. calculus 3:3.5-5.5 mm
4: over 5.5 mmClinical attachment level 1 Day A single calibrated examiner measured clinical attachment level- CAL, 0: 0-3 mm 1:4-5 mm 2:6-8 mm 3:over 8mm 4: 9-11 mm 5: over 12 mm
Plaque Examination 1 Day A single calibrated examiner measured plaque (Pl) 0:no plaque
1. A film of plaque
2. soft deposit s within the gingival pocket
3. Abundance of soft matter within the gingival pocketGingival Examination 1 Day A single calibrated examiner measured gingival indices (GI) 0= Normal gingiva;
1. Mild inflammation
2. Moderate inflammation
3. Severe inflammation
