Abstract

Aim: The study evaluated the effects of subgingival application of ozonated olive oil as adjuvant therapy to classic non-surgical conservative periodontal treatment. 

Material and methods: Sixty patients with moderate and advanced periodontal disease were divided into two groups: group 1, in which only conservative periodontal treatment (scaling and root planning) was applied, and group 2, in which, in addition to the conservative treatment, ozonated olive oil (Ozone Gold-Germany, GmbH, 80 mg) was also applied. The subgingival application of ozonated olive oil was performed right after the conservative treatment and also, on days 7, 14 and 21. Clinical parameters included DPI, IGI, GBI, CAL. BANA test was performed to detect the presence of the three anaerobic periopathogenic bacterial species (T. denticola, T. forsythia, P. gingivalis) in subgingival dental plaque. Clinical parameters and BANA test were recorded at the beginning, before starting conservative treatment and 1 month afterwards.              

Results: The results indicated an improvement in all clinical parameters in both groups, with a statistical significance in the group in which ozonated olive oil was applied in addition to conservative periodontal treatment. The combined treatment showed a significantly greater success than the conservative one in terms of the presence of the three anaerobic periopathogenic bacterial species (T. denticola, T. forsythia, P. gingivalis).              

Conclusion: Topical application of ozonated olive oil in addition to conservative periodontal treatment may serve as a potential atraumatic, promising antimicrobial agent in the non-surgical treatment of periodontal disease.
