| description | Twenty five patients with progresive periodontal disease entered this study in order to examine clinical effects of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug - ibuprofen, used as an adjunct to non-surgical periodontal treatment. After scaling and root planning, patients were randomly assigned to either receive orally 200 mg of ibuprofen per day for one month (group A), or not receive the drug (group B). The obtained results show that the mechanical periodontal treatment brought to resolution the gingival inflammation with both group of patients. Although the mean values of the used indices were lower in group A than in group B, those differences were neither statistically nor clinically significant. We may conclude that systemic ibuprofen had no significant effect on plaque, gingival or bleeding index scores. |
