Study Overview
Brief Summary
The main aim and objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of Non- surgical periodontal therapy on the subgingival microbiota and biochemical parameters in patients with chronic kidney disease and chronic periodontitis.
Detailed Description
The study was designed as a Non randomized prospective, interventional clinical trial. The sample size for the study was 40 individuals aged between 35-75 years, equally divided into two groups.
Group I--- Patients with Chronic kidney disease and chronic periodontitis (Test) Group II--- Patients with Chronic periodontitis only (Controls) At baseline both the groups were analyzed for clinical, microbiological and also biochemical parameters and underwent Non-surgical Periodontal treatment (i.e. scaling and root planning). All parameters were reassessed again after 3 months.
A total of 20 patients attending the outpatient wing of Hyderabad Kidney Centre , Malakpet,Hyderabad who were diagnosed clinically with Chronic Kidney disease and willing to participate in the study were included in the study.
Another 20 patients attending the outpatient wing of Department of periodontics, Panineeya Mahavidyalaya Institute of Dental Sciences & Hospital, Hyderabad, diagnosed with Chronic Periodontitis and willing to participate in the study were taken.
Biochemical parameters considered included -serum creatin & urinary albumin: creatin ratio.

Inclusion Criteria
- •A total of 20 patients diagnosed with Chronic kidney disease, (having abnormal Glomerular filtration rate(GFR) and serum Creatinine levels.) and chronic periodontitis (with at least 15 teeth remaining, and with the presence of ≥4 sites in 3 different teeth having clinical attachment loss (CAL) of ≥ 4mm and bleeding on probing). (Group I)

Arms & Interventions
GroupI (Test)
20 patients with renal insufficiency chronic and chronic periodontitis underwent scaling and root planing. Clinical parameters( GI,PD,CAL) were assessed at baseline and after 3 months. 2ml blood was drawn to assess serum creatinine levels and urine analysis was done at baseline and after 3 months for urinary albumin: creatinine ratio.Pooled plaque samples were taken at baseline and after 3 months to assess the microbial activity of Treponema Denticola and Tannerella Forsythia by PCR.
Intervention: Scaling and Root planing (Other)
Group II- (Control)
20 patients with chronic periodontitis who underwent scaling and root planing.Clinical parameters(GI,PD,CAL)were assessed at baseline and after 3 months. 2ml blood was drawn to assess seum creatnine levels and urine analysis was done at baseline and after 3 months for serum urinary Albumin:Creatinine ratio.Pooled plaque samples were taken at baseline and after 3 months to assess the microbial activity of Treponema denticola and Tannerella Forsythia by PCR.
Intervention: Scaling and Root planing (Other)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Levels of Microbiological and Biochemical Parameters
Time Frame: Change in levels of Microbiological and Biochemical parameters were assessed at baseline and 3 months after scaling and rootplaning
Microbiological assay was done by PCR test i.e., pooled plaque samples were taken from both predialysis as well as chronic periodontitis patients at baseline and 3 months after scaling and root planing. Supragingival plaque was removed carefully with a sterile scaler to prevent the contamination of the samples.Sample was harvested from the same site with a sterile Gracey curet 5-6 with one single vertical stroke on the root surface. Biochemical assay was done by Modified Jaffe's reaction to assess the levels of Serum Creatinine and urine samples were taken to assess the Albumin:Creatinine ratio
Secondary Outcomes
- Clinical parameter -Gingival Index (GI)(Change in the GI was assessed at baseline and 3 months after Scaling and rootplaning)
- Clinical Parameters-Probing depth(PD) and Clinical attachment levels (CAL)(Change in Pd was assessed at baseline and 3 months after scaling and rootplaning)
- Clinical Parameter- Clinical attachment levels(CAL)(Change in CAL was assessed at baseline and 3 months after scaling and rootplaning)
