Brief Summary:
Metformin (MF), a biguanide group of anti-diabetic drug has been shown to enhance osteoblasts differentiation and inhibit osteoclast differentiation in vitro, thus may exhibit a favourable effect on alveolar bone. Statins are one of the lipid lowering drugs that help in reducing cholesterol levels in the body by specifically inhibiting 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase; which is a rate limiting enzyme for cholesterol synthesis. Rosuvastatin (RSV) have shown to have bone stimulatory and anti-inflammatory effects.Statins are one of the lipid lowering drugs that help in reducing cholesterol levels in the body by specifically inhibiting 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase; which is a rate limiting enzyme for cholesterol synthesis. Rosuvastatin (RSV) and atorvastatin (ATV) have shown to have bone stimulatory and anti-inflammatory effects.. The present study aims to explore the efficacy of 1.2% RSV and 1MF gel as a local drug delivery and redelivery system as an adjunct to scaling and root planing (SRP) for the treatment of intrabony defects.

Methods: Ninety patients with intrabony defects were randomly allocated into three treatment groups: SRP plus placebo gel (group 1), SRP plus 1.2% RSV gel (group 2) and 1% MF gel (group3). Clinical and radiographic parameters were recorded at baseline then after 6 months. The gels were delivered at the respective sites at baseline . Then again all clinical and radiographic parameters were recorded after 6 months and 12 months.
