EFFICACY OF HYALURONIC ACID, CHLORHEXIDINE MOUTHWASH AS ADJUNCT TO SCALING AND ROOT SURFACE DEBRIDEMENT IN CHRONIC PERIODONTITIS PATIENTS
Abstract
Background: Chronic Periodontitis is an infectious disease that results in inflammation of the protective
tissues of the teeth, progressive loss of connective tissue, alveolar bone loss, and even tooth's loss if left
without treatment nonsurgical mechanical therapy is the base of periodontal treatment.
Aim: The study aimed to evaluate the effect of hyaluronic acid (HA) mouthwash (0.025%) and
chlorhexidine (CHX) mouthwash (0.12%) as adjunct to scaling and root surface debridement (S&RSD) in
the treatment of chronic periodontitis patient.
Method: Sixty patients within the age group of 30-55 years enrolled to participate in the study. They were
divided randomly into three groups (20 in each): First group received scaling and root surface
debridement followed by HA, and the second group received scaling and root surface debridement
followed by CHX, and the third group received scaling and root surface debridement only. Plaque index
(PI), gingival index (GI), probing pocket depth (PPD) and clinical attachment loss (CAL) were recorded at
baseline and two months after periodontal therapy.
Result: In all three groups a significant reduction in PI, GI, PPD and CAL were observed between base
line and after two months of periodontal therapy (p<0.05)
Conclusion: The local uses of hyaluronic acid (HA) and chlorhexedine (CHX) mouth washs in conjunction
with SRP has a significant beneficial effect on periodontal health in patients with chronic periodontitis
with higher effect of hyaluronic acid (HA).
