Brief Summary:
This is a 9 month randomised controlled clinical comparing the clinical efficacy of 1%metformin and 1%alendronate in chronic periodontitis subjects.
Detailed Description:
ABSTRACT Background: Since Metformin (MF) induces osteoblast growth and differentiation while Alendronate (ALN) act as an antiosteolytic agent. The aim of the present study is to evaluate and compare the efficacy of 1% ALN and 1% MF gel as a local drug delivery system in adjunct to scaling and root planing (SRP) for the treatment of intrabony defects in patients with chronic periodontitis.
Methods:
The study had 3 groups comprising of ninety subjects, divided into three groups 1% MF with SRP, 1% ALN with SRP and placebo gel with SRP. Clinical parameters (plaque index (PI), modified sulcus bleeding index (mSBI), probing pocket depth (PPD), and clinical attachment level (CAL) were recorded at baseline, 3, 6 and 9 months. Radiographic parameters intrabony defect depth (IBD) and defect depth reduction (DDR%) was calculated on standardized radiographs by using image analysis software at 6 and 9 months
