- Brief Summary
This early-stage study is designed to determine the efficacy of the Lumoral method in periimplantitis. Improved supragingival plaque control can help to also sustain subgingival plaque management in the long term. In addition, the device might have a photobiomodulation effect on periodontal tissues, thus impacting osseointegration.
- Detailed Description
Clinical signs of inflammation in peri-implantitis include bleeding on probing, suppuration, increased probing depth, and radiographic signs of bone loss. Currently, the best treatment options for peri-implantitis include non-surgical methods of biofilm removal in the supra-mucosal area around implants, and comprehensive guidance on self-performed infection control procedures. With more advanced peri-implantitis, anti-infective surgical treatment protocol would be needed.
Matrix metalloproteinase 8 (MMP-8) has been found to be elevated in association with oral infections, such as periodontitis and peri-implantitis. The level of active MMP-8 (aMMP-8) can detect to determine tissue health and to assess inflammation, and can easily be measured during a regular dental appointment with a chairside test.
The Lumoral Treatment is a CE-marked medical device developed to provide a potent, targeted antibacterial action on dental plaque in a home environment. The method mechanism of action is antibacterial photodynamic therapy (aPDT). The method is used by swishing a mouth rinse, which has a strong adherence to dental plaque. The plaque-adhered photoactive mouth rinse can be activated by a simple-to-use light applicator. Preliminary results have shown a promising anti-inflammatory response in addition to plaque reduction.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Bleeding on probing (BOP) 6 months Change in the inflammatory parameter BOP. A full-mouth assessment at six sites per tooth:
* Gingival bleeding is considered as positive if bleeding occurs within 15 seconds after gentle probing with a probe at the sulcus
* Dichotomous scoring to each site of the tooth as bleeding "1 present" and "0 absent"
* BOP reported as the percentage (%) of sites with positive findings
* Calculation formula: number of bleeding sites/ 6 times number of teeth
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Interleukins analysis 6 months Units: pg/ml.
Active matrix metalloproteinase 8 (aMMP-8) 6 months The oral rinse fluid sample collection and the aMMP-8 marker analysis will be performed using Periosafe test (Dentognostics GmbH) according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Inflammatory marker total MMP-2 analysis 6 months Measurement of pro and active MMP-2. Units: ng/ml.
Adverse events 6 months Any suspicion of an adverse event related to the investigational device, the treatment method, or the study protocol.
Inflammatory marker total MMP-8 analysis 6 months Measurement of pro and active MMP-8. Units: ng/ml.
Bacterial flora 6 Months Quantification of periodontopathic bacteria by 16S rRNA sequencing analysis
- Microbiological samples can be collected using Iso Taper Paper Points, size-20 (VDW GmbH) from selected gingival/periodontal pockets with maximum initial probing depth. The paper points can be placed into sterile, small-aliquot containers, and immediately stored at -20°C until analysisOHIP-14 questionnaire 6 months - Measures people's perception of the social impact of oral disorders on their well-being.
Fourteen items of OHIP are divided into seven dimensions: functional limitation, physical discomfort, psychological discomfort, physical disability, psychological disability, social disability, and handicaps. (Slade GD 1997). Responses are made on a 5-point scale (from 0 = never, to 4 = very often).Inflammatory marker total MMP-9 analysis 6 months Measurement of pro and active MMP-9. Units: ng/ml.
