Evaluation of salivary parameters (flow rate, pH, amylase and total protein) in periodontitis patients based on CPITN criteria
Keywords:
salivary parameters, dental, treatmentAbstract
Introduction: The available literature on the topic is inconclusive and sometime taking less parameters in consideration. Moreover, there is no published data available in local population. Objectives: To determine and compare salivary flow rate, pH, total proteins, and alpha amylase in periodontitis patients based on community periodontal index of treatment needs (CPITN) score. Materials & Methods: A cross sectional study on 80 participants selected by purposive sampling was completed in 6 months. Participants were divided into 5 groups by CPITN scoring. Individuals more than 30 years with at least 20 teeth having calculus/staining were included. The study was conducted at Dental department of Civil Dispensary Peshawar city, Khyber College of Dentistry (periodontology ward) and Khyber Medical University (Biochemistry lab). After explaining the procedure and taking consent, saliva was collected from the participants following aseptic technique and analyzed through ELISA. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 22. P value <0.05 was considered to be significant in our study. Results: Among 80 subjects, 51 were females and 29 were males with mean age 35.73±7.05 years and BMI 26.47±5.23.
