Myocardial Infarction and Periodontitis: Periodontal Health Intervention.

Oral Health Intervention Study in Patients with Myocardial Infarction and Periodontal Disease: a Simulated RCT Trial

Important: This information is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor about whether a clinical trial is right for you.

About This Trial

The aim of this study is to establish a shared database of acute myocardial infarction patients with periodontitis, to clarify the clinical benefits of periodontitis intervention on acute myocardial infarction patients through simulated RCT study, and to establish a high-level database of acute myocardial infarction patients with periodontitis, so as to promote the application of oral health intervention in clinical practice.

Treatments Being Tested

PROCEDURE

Periodontal surgery

In the intervention group, patients underwent a comprehensive periodontal evaluation conducted by periodontists at a dental clinic. All permanent teeth, except for third molars, were assessed using dental mirrors and periodontal probes. Each tooth was examined at four sites (vestibular, distal, lingual, and mesial) to evaluate visible plaque, probing depth, probing bleeding, and attachment loss. During the first treatment session, patients were provided with information about periodontal disease, emphasizing the importance of controlling supragingival bacterial biofilms for successful treatment. Plaque-retentive factors (calculus) were removed. Temporary materials were used to restore carious lesions, root remnants were extracted, and maladaptive restorations were adjusted. Supragingival calculus was removed using periodontal scalers, followed by cleaning with a rubber cup, prophylaxis paste, dental floss, and/or interdental brushes. No prophylactic antibiotics were used prior to the
