IN PERIODONTAL
DISEASE
PRESENTED BY:
DR. HAFSA SARA ZUBAIR
BDS
OBJECTIVES:
• What is periodontal disease?
• How periodontal pockets are formed?
• How to treat periodontal pockets?
• What are antiinfective agents?
• Guidelines for use of antibiotics in periodontal therapy.
• systemic administration of antibiotics
• common antibiotics regimens to treat periodontal disease.
• Serial or combination antibiotics.
• Local delivery agents
WHAT IS PERIODONTAL
DISEASE?
Periodontal disease refer to all the diseases of peridontium;
this means that a periodontal disease is any
pathological state that
involves the supporting tissue
of the teeth.
•Usually caused by bacterial infections.
HOW PERIODONTAL POCKETS ARE FORMED?
THIS SUPRAGINGIVAL PLAQUE BECOMES COMPLEX
AFTER TEETH HAVE BEEN CLEANED
BACTERIA BEGINS TO REATTACH AND FORM BIOFILM
EVENTUALLY BONE IS DESTROYED A PERIODONTAL POCKET
IS FORMED
BACTERIAL GROWS IN APICAL DIRECTION AND BECOME
SUBGINGIVAL
LEADING TO SUCCESSION OF BACTERIA
HOW TO TREAT PERIODONTAL POCKETS??
• BY MECHANICAL REMOVAL OF LOCAL FACTORS:
calculus
plaque
MECHANICAL REMOVAL INCLUDES:
1. Manual instrumentation
a. Scaling
b. root planing
2. Machine drive instrument
Ultrasonic scalers
• THESE PROCEDURES ARE CONSIDERED TO BE
ANTIINFECTIVE THERAPY
ANTIINFECTIVE AGENTS:
“A Anti-infective agent is a chemotherapeutic agent that act
by reducing the number of bacteria present. It destroys or
inhibits the growth of selective microorganisms .”
• Can be administered ORALLY OR LOCALLY.
•SYSTEMIC ADMINISTRATION OF ANTIBIOTICS controls
bacterial infections.
•LOCAL ADMINISTRATION OF ANTIINFECTIVE AGENTS
provide greater concentration directly to the infected area and
reduce possible side effects.
GUIDELINES FOR THE USE OF ANTIBIOTICS IN
PERIODONTAL THERAPY
 Clinical diagnosis and situation dictate the need for possible
antibiotic therapy.
 Antibiotics should be selected based on patient’s medical and
dental status ,current medications,and plaque sampling
analysis.
 Adjunct therapy has shown more benefits in periodontal
treatment rather than alone therapy.
 Biofilm should be disrupted physically so that antibiotics can
access to periodontal pathogens
SYSTEMIC ADMINISTRATION OF
ANTIBIOTICS
CATEGORY AGENT MAJOR FEATURES
Penicillin Amoxicillin
Augmentin
• Extended spectrum of
antimicrobial activity; excellent
oral absorption used systemically.
• Extended against penicillinase
producing microorganisms ; used
systemically.
Tetracycline Minocycline
Doxacycline
Tetracycline
• effective against broad spectrum
of microorganism; used
systemically, applied locally (
subgingivally)
• used systemically; applied locally.
•Used in sub-antimicrobial dose
for host modulation.
CATEGORY AGENT MAJOR FEATURES
Quinolone Ciprofloxacin • Effective against gram negative
rods, promotes health associated
microflora.
Macrolide Azithromycin • concentrate at site of
inflammation; used systemically.
Lincomycin derivatives Clindamycin •Used in penicillase-allergic
patients; effective against anaerobic
bacteria; used systemically.

..
METRONIDAZOLE:
MECHANISM OF ACTION CLINICAL USE SIDE EFFECTS
Entry into the microorganism
Reductive activation by intracellular
transport proteins- Metronidazole is
reduced by the pyruvate:ferredoxin
oxidoreductase system in the
mitochondria of obligate anaerobes,
which alters its chemical structure.
Reduced intermediate particle
interacts with intracellular targets-
Cytotoxic intermediate particles
interact with host cell DNA, resulting
in DNA strand breakage.
Breakdown of cytotoxic intermediate
products
•Used to treat:
- Gingivitis
- ANUG
- Chronic
periodontitis
- Aggressive
periodontitis
• When combined
with amoxicillin,
metronidazole is
used in the
management of
patient with LAP or
refractory
periodontitis.
• Has an antabuse
effect when alcohol is
ingested and can
result in :
- Cramps
- Nausea
- Vomiting

• Alcohol products
should be avoided.
• pt undergoing
anticoagulant therapy
should avoid
metronidazole.
• should be avoided in
pt who are taking
lithium.

combination provide excellent elimination of organism in adult
and LAP
• Metronidazole-ciprofloxacin is effective against A.
actinomycetemcomitans
LOCAL DELIVERY AGENTS:
• They control growth of bacteria on barrier membranes.
•AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PERIODONTAL STATED:
“ The clinician decisions to use LDA
should be based upon clinical
findings, patient's dental and
medical history, patient
preference and advantages
and disadvantages of therapies.”

Antibiotics used in peridontal diseases(1)

  • 2. OBJECTIVES: • What is periodontal disease? • How periodontal pockets are formed? • How to treat periodontal pockets? • What are antiinfective agents? • Guidelines for use of antibiotics in periodontal therapy. • systemic administration of antibiotics • common antibiotics regimens to treat periodontal disease. • Serial or combination antibiotics. • Local delivery agents
  • 3. WHAT IS PERIODONTAL DISEASE? Periodontal disease refer to all the diseases of peridontium; this means that a periodontal disease is any pathological state that involves the supporting tissue of the teeth. •Usually caused by bacterial infections.
  • 4. HOW PERIODONTAL POCKETS ARE FORMED? THIS SUPRAGINGIVAL PLAQUE BECOMES COMPLEX AFTER TEETH HAVE BEEN CLEANED BACTERIA BEGINS TO REATTACH AND FORM BIOFILM EVENTUALLY BONE IS DESTROYED A PERIODONTAL POCKET IS FORMED BACTERIAL GROWS IN APICAL DIRECTION AND BECOME SUBGINGIVAL LEADING TO SUCCESSION OF BACTERIA
  • 5. HOW TO TREAT PERIODONTAL POCKETS?? • BY MECHANICAL REMOVAL OF LOCAL FACTORS: calculus plaque MECHANICAL REMOVAL INCLUDES: 1. Manual instrumentation a. Scaling b. root planing 2. Machine drive instrument Ultrasonic scalers • THESE PROCEDURES ARE CONSIDERED TO BE ANTIINFECTIVE THERAPY
  • 6. ANTIINFECTIVE AGENTS: “A Anti-infective agent is a chemotherapeutic agent that act by reducing the number of bacteria present. It destroys or inhibits the growth of selective microorganisms .” • Can be administered ORALLY OR LOCALLY. •SYSTEMIC ADMINISTRATION OF ANTIBIOTICS controls bacterial infections. •LOCAL ADMINISTRATION OF ANTIINFECTIVE AGENTS provide greater concentration directly to the infected area and reduce possible side effects.
  • 7. GUIDELINES FOR THE USE OF ANTIBIOTICS IN PERIODONTAL THERAPY  Clinical diagnosis and situation dictate the need for possible antibiotic therapy.  Antibiotics should be selected based on patient’s medical and dental status ,current medications,and plaque sampling analysis.  Adjunct therapy has shown more benefits in periodontal treatment rather than alone therapy.  Biofilm should be disrupted physically so that antibiotics can access to periodontal pathogens
  • 8. SYSTEMIC ADMINISTRATION OF ANTIBIOTICS CATEGORY AGENT MAJOR FEATURES Penicillin Amoxicillin Augmentin • Extended spectrum of antimicrobial activity; excellent oral absorption used systemically. • Extended against penicillinase producing microorganisms ; used systemically. Tetracycline Minocycline Doxacycline Tetracycline • effective against broad spectrum of microorganism; used systemically, applied locally ( subgingivally) • used systemically; applied locally. •Used in sub-antimicrobial dose for host modulation.
  • 9. CATEGORY AGENT MAJOR FEATURES Quinolone Ciprofloxacin • Effective against gram negative rods, promotes health associated microflora. Macrolide Azithromycin • concentrate at site of inflammation; used systemically. Lincomycin derivatives Clindamycin •Used in penicillase-allergic patients; effective against anaerobic bacteria; used systemically. Nitroimidazole Metronidazole •Effective against anaerobic bacteria; used systemically and applied locally (subgingivally) as gel. CONT……
  • 10. COMMON ANTIBIOTICS REGIMENS USED TO TREAT PERIODONTAL DISEASE SINGLE AGENT REGIMENS DOSAGE/DURATION Amoxicillin 500mg Three times daily for eight days. Azithromycin 500mg Once daily for 4-7 days Ciprofloxacin 500mg Twice daily for 8 days Clindamycin 300mg Three times daily 10 days Doxacycline or minocycline 100-200mg Once daily for 21 days Metronidazole 500mg Three times daily for 8 days COMBINATION THERAPY REGIMENS DOSAGE/DURATION Metronidazole + amoxicillin 250mg of each Three times daily for 8 days Metronidazole + ciprofloxacin 500mg of each Twice daily for 8 days
  • 11. MECHANISM OF ACTION CLINICAL USE SIDE EFFECTS Binds reversibly to 30s ribosome subunit Blocks bacterial translocation. This prevent binding of aminoacly tRNAs to A-site of the ribosome. • used to treat: - Aggressive periodontitis in children. • GI disturbance • Photosensitivity • Hypersensitivity • Increase blood urea nitrogen • Blood dyscrasias • Dizziness • Headache • Tooth discoloration occurs when administered to children up to age 12 years. TETRACYCLINE
  • 12. MINOCYCLINE MECHANISM OF ACTION CLINICAL USE SIDE EFFECTS Binds reversibly to 30s ribosome subunit Blocks bacterial translocation. This prevent binding of aminoacly tRNAs to A-site of the ribosome. • Used to treat: - Adult periodontitis by suppressing spirochetes and motile rods. • GI disturbance • Renal toxicity • Photo toxicity • Hypersensitivity • Blood dycrasias • Increase blood urea nitrogen • Dizziness • Headache • vertigo
  • 13. DOXYCYCLINE: MECHANISM OF ACTION CLINICAL USE SIDE EFFECTS Binds reversibly to 30s ribosome subunit Blocks bacterial translocation. This prevent binding of aminoacyl tRNAs to A-site of the ribosome. • Used to treat: - Adult periodontitis by suppressing spirochetes and motile rods • GI disturbance • Photosensitivity • Hypersensitivity • Increase blood urea nitrogen • Blood dyscrasias • Dizziness • Headache • Tooth discoloration occurs when administered to children up to age 12 years.
  • 14. .. METRONIDAZOLE: MECHANISM OF ACTION CLINICAL USE SIDE EFFECTS Entry into the microorganism Reductive activation by intracellular transport proteins- Metronidazole is reduced by the pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase system in the mitochondria of obligate anaerobes, which alters its chemical structure. Reduced intermediate particle interacts with intracellular targets- Cytotoxic intermediate particles interact with host cell DNA, resulting in DNA strand breakage. Breakdown of cytotoxic intermediate products •Used to treat: - Gingivitis - ANUG - Chronic periodontitis - Aggressive periodontitis • When combined with amoxicillin, metronidazole is used in the management of patient with LAP or refractory periodontitis. • Has an antabuse effect when alcohol is ingested and can result in : - Cramps - Nausea - Vomiting - Metallic taste • Alcohol products should be avoided. • pt undergoing anticoagulant therapy should avoid metronidazole. • should be avoided in pt who are taking lithium.
  • 15. PENICILLINS: MECHANISM OF ACTION CLINICAL USE SIDE EFFECTS It inhibit cell wall synthesis by following ways: - Inactivates protien present on the bacterial cell membrane. - Inhibit transpeptidase catalayzed reaction. - By production of autolysins There use in periodontal therapy does not appear to be justified. • Allergic reactions • Hypersensitivity • Nephritis • Neurotocxicity • hematologic toxicity • Cation toxicity
  • 16. CEPHALOSPORINS: MECHANISM OF ACTION CLINICAL USE SIDE EFFECTS It inhibit cell wall synthesis by following ways: - Inactivates protien present on the bacterial cell membrane. - Inhibit transpeptidase catalayzed reaction. - By production of autolysins Not used to treat dental related infections. • Rash • fever • GI disturbance
  • 17. CLINDAMYCIN: MECHANISM OF ACTION CLINICAL USE SIDE EFFECTS Binds to 50s subunit Inhibit protein synthesis Used to treat - Periodontitis • Diarrhea • Rash • Neutropenia
  • 18. CIPROFLOXACIN: MECHANISM OF ACTION CLINICAL USE SIDE EFFECTS Inhibits bacterial folic acid synthesis thereby killing bacteria. • may facilitate the establishment of microflora associated with periodontal health. • Nausea • Headache • Metallic taste • Abdominal discomfort
  • 19. MACROLIDES: (erythromycin, spiramycin, and azithromycin) MECHANISM OF ACTION CLINICAL USE SIDE EFFECTS Binds irreversibly to a site of 50s subunit of bacterial ribosome Inhibit the translocation step of protein synthesis •Spiromycin is used as adjunct to periodontal treatment. • Azithromycin can be used to treat - Aggressive periodontitis - gingival enlargement • Epigastric distress • ototoxicity • cholestatic jaundice
  • 20. SERIAL OR COMBINATION ANTIBIOTIC THERAPY: • In some cases it is necessary to use more then one antibiotic, either serially or in combination. EXAMPLES: • Metronidazole-amoxicillin and metronidazole-augmentin combination provide excellent elimination of organism in adult and LAP • Metronidazole-ciprofloxacin is effective against A. actinomycetemcomitans
  • 21. LOCAL DELIVERY AGENTS: • They control growth of bacteria on barrier membranes. •AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PERIODONTAL STATED: “ The clinician decisions to use LDA should be based upon clinical findings, patient's dental and medical history, patient preference and advantages and disadvantages of therapies.”
