AIM
To
evaluate the clinical effect of subgingival irrigation with royal jelly in
management of periodontal disease
OBJECTIVES
· To
evaluate the effect of subgingival irrigation with royal jelly solution by means of clinical
parameters
· To
evaluate the effect of subgingival
irrigation with saline solution by means of clinical parameters
· To
evaluate the effect of subgingival
irrigation with distilled water by means of clinical parameters
· To
compare the effects of subgingival irrigation for these three agents by means
of clinical parameters
JUSTIFICATION
FOR THE STUDY
The
purpose of the study is mainly to evaluate clinical effect of new apitherapy
product royal jelly solution as a subgingival irrigant in reducing clinical
signs of periodontitis
MATERIALS
& METHODS
This study
includes 30 medically healthy individuals with chronic periodontitis undergoing
periodontal therapy at the department of Periodontics in Vivekananda Dental
College will be randomly selected. Written consent from the participants will
be collected for the inclusion of this study
ü Number
of patients:30
CRITERIA FOR
GROUPING
§ GROUP A:
SUBGINGIVAL IRRIGATION WITH ROYAL JELLY SOLUTION
§ GROUP B: SUBGINGIVAL IRRGATION WITH SALINE SOLUTION
§ GROUP C: SUBGINGIVAL IRRIGATION WITH DISTILLED WATER
INCLUSION CRITERIA

MATERIALS AND
METHODS
CLINICAL
MEASUREMENTS
·
Probing pocket
depth (PPD) - measured from the gingival margin to the bottom of the pocket in
all 6 sites of the involved teeth using periodontal probe
·
Clinical
attachment level (CAL) – recorded as probing depth +recession fixed at CEJ.
Using periodontal probe.
·
Gingival index
(Loe& Silness 1963)
·
Plaque index
(Silness J & Loe H 1964).
PREPARATION OF
ROYAL JELLY IRRIGANT SOLUTION
¢ Royal jelly is commercially available in the form of
tablets consisting 0.6 g.
¢ The tablets are crushed and dissolved in 60 ml
distilled water to obtain a solution form of effective concentration. Finally
royal jelly solution is obtained which will be used for irrigation purpose.
They are delivered as in office irrigation using an irrigation device
¢ Irrigation time used is 10 -15 ml over 5 minutes (Saleeta
Mushtaq 2017)
METHODOLOGY
·
Following baseline
clinical measurements, group A patients will receive royal jelly subgingival
irrigation ; group B will receive subgingival saline irrigation and group C
will receive subgingival distilled water irrigation and
·
All irrigation
agents will be delivered using an irrigation
device
·
Patients will be then recalled at 7th
and14th day for re-evaluation
and clinical parameters are re-evaluated
Post-operative instructions- Oral hygiene instructions will be advised to brush
twice daily using modified bass technique
Follow
up – Patients recalled at 7th
and 14th day from baseline and clinical measurements reevaluated
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
Ø ANOVA-to evaluate
the results at different time periods within the group and for intergroup
comparisons
POTENTIAL RISKS:
·
No potential risks involved in this procedure
·
Strict aseptic
precautions will be followed
