Brief Summary  

Chronic periodontitis, a inflammatory disease of supporting tissues of teeth, is found to increase the systemic inflammatory burden possibly facilitated by acute phase reactants like C-reactive protein (CRP), which aggravates the existing metabolic conditions like diabetes, hypertension and anemia in chronic kidney disease(CKD) patients undergoing haemodialysis

Aim of the study

To  evaluate effect of non-surgical periodontal therapy on clinical, renal and haematological parameters at baseline and 3 months postoperatively.

Materials and Methods

This was a comparative interventional study. Sixty chronic periodontitis patients were divided into three groups which consisted of CKD patients undergoing haemodialysis for less than a year (Group I), CKD patients undergoing haemodialysis for more than a year (Group II) and systemically healthy chronic periodontitis patients(Group III).  Clinical parameters were recorded at baseline, 1 month and 3 months after nonsurgical periodontal therapy. C reactive protein (CRP), transferrin saturation (TSAT) and serum ferritin was observed at baseline and 3 months after nonsurgical periodontal therapy.

Results

The clinical parameters showed pronounced reduction at the end of 3 months in all the groups. CRP reduced in all the three groups 3 months post-operatively, but statistically significant reduction was seen in Group I and group III only. TSAT increased significantly in all the three groups. With regard to serum ferritin, it was seen that serum ferritin increased significantly in Group I and Group II, whereas significant reduction was seen in Group III.

Conclusion

It was noted that nonsurgical periodontal therapy can bring about reduction in CRP level and also improvement in iron indices in systemically healthy periodontitis patients and also in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing haemodialysis of varying duration. However studies with larger sample size and longer duration of follow up are required to confirm the findings.
