metronidazole and Dental Plaque

metronidazole has been researched along with Dental Plaque in 132 studies

Metronidazole: A nitroimidazole used to treat AMEBIASIS; VAGINITIS; TRICHOMONAS INFECTIONS; GIARDIASIS; ANAEROBIC BACTERIA; and TREPONEMAL INFECTIONS.
metronidazole : A member of the class of imidazoles substituted at C-1, -2 and -5 with 2-hydroxyethyl, nitro and methyl groups respectively. It has activity against anaerobic bacteria and protozoa, and has a radiosensitising effect on hypoxic tumour cells. It may be given by mouth in tablets, or as the benzoate in an oral suspension. The hydrochloride salt can be used in intravenous infusions. Metronidazole is a prodrug and is selective for anaerobic bacteria due to their ability to intracellularly reduce the nitro group of metronidazole to give nitroso-containing intermediates. These can covalently bind to DNA, disrupting its helical structure, inducing DNA strand breaks and inhibiting bacterial nucleic acid synthesis, ultimately resulting in bacterial cell death.

Dental Plaque: A film that attaches to teeth, often causing DENTAL CARIES and GINGIVITIS. It is composed of MUCINS, secreted from salivary glands, and microorganisms.

Trial Outcomes

Change in Distance to the Healthy Plane Based on the Subgingival Plaque Microbiome at 6 Months

Analysis of microbiome community changes using the healthy plane (HP) as a reference. A healthy plane was calculated by fitting a plane that minimizes the sum of squares of distances from HC samples to the nearest point on the plane. The distance of each sample to the HP was then calculated. Higher values of distance to HP mean microbiome community changes towards disease status (NCT04830969)
Timeframe: Baseline to 6 Months

Interventiondistance to the healthy plane (Mean)
Group A: SRP + SPT-2.16
Group B: SRP-1.26

Change in High Sensitivity C-reactive Protein at 6 Months After Treatment

The high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) blood test measures body inflammation indicating infection or a chronic inflammatory disease such as periodontitis or diabetes. It also can be used to evaluate risk of developing coronary artery disease. A normal reading is less than 10 milligram per liter (mg/L); a level greater than 10 mg/L is a sign of serious infection, trauma or chronic disease likely requiring further testing to determine cause (NCT04830969)
