简要总结
The investigators hypothesize that blood dendritic cells harbor pathogens from the oral cavity in chronic periodontitis and disseminate these pathogens to atherosclerotic plaques.
详细描述
To address this hypothesis, a clinical study in humans with moderate to severe chronic periodontitis has been designed. This is an interventional study involving scaling and root planing and two arms: 1. treatment with PO amoxocillin/metronidazole plus chlorhexidine oral rinse; 2. no antibiotics or oral rinse. It is expected that the antibiotics plus chlorhexidine will prevent the dendritic cell response to infection (bacteremia) elicited by scaling and root planing.

研究组 & 干预措施
Oral Antibiotic and Oral Rinse
Each subject will received oral Amoxicillin/Amoxil/lansoprazole/Flagyl 250 mg of each three times a day for 8 days. Subjects will also rinse their mouths with 2 ounces of 0.12% chlorhexidine/peridex mouthrinse two times per day. Subjects will also receive mechanical debridement at the baseline visit. Intervention Amoxicillin/Amoxil/lansoprazol 500 mg/ Metronidazole/Flagyl 250 mg
干预措施: Oral Antibiotic and Oral Rinse (Drug)

时间窗: 30 days
The frequency of blood dendritic cells, i.e. % CCR6+CD1a+ DCs by flow cytometry 30 days after treatment with 7 day regimen of antibiotics, mouthrinse therapy and scaling and root planing (SRP) will be compared to those who did not receive the antibiotics, but did receive mouthrinse and scaling and root planing (SRP)
