Periodontitis is characterized by destruction of supporting structures of tooth and may also lead to loss of teeth if untreated. The aim of this review is to systematically evaluate the efficacy of 1% MF in the treatment of periodontitis. An electronic search was carried out using the keywords ‘metformin’,‘periodontal’ and ‘periodontitis’ via the PubMed/Medline, ISI Web of Science and Google Scholar databases for relevant articles published from 1949 toFebruary 2019.Keywords

The main aim regarding periodontal therapy, is to ensure an healthy oral environment, devoid of plaque, biofilm,by physical disruption and by adjunctive chemical means. This review examines the therapeutic goals necessary for periodontal maintenance, the protocol necessary for adequate maintenance,supportive periodontal therapy(by the clinician,by the patient)evidence based approach of maintenance care and also about the new approaches.This review concludes that even after proper treatment,long term stability is ensured only with good maintenance of oral hygiene,by avoiding risks i.e.smoking and with regular maintenance care programme.Keywords

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a veryreal and growing problem, as indicated by demographic trends. Presence of undiagnosed periodontitis may have significant effect on the medical management of CKD patient as its been found to contribute to systemic inflammatory burden.This study evaluate and compare the periodontal status and IL-6 levels among CKD, periodontitis and Healthy patients.
Materials and Method: Whole serum samples werecollected from 80 patients who were further divided into four groups; healthy (n=20), periodontitis (n=20), HD (n=20), PD (n=20). Serum IL-6 concentrations were determined by Standard enzyme -linked immunosorbent assay.
Results: Indicates the IL-6 levels in the studypopulation. The mean IL-6 value being highest in pre-dialysis (92.695) compared to dialysis (53.112), periodontitis (9.22) and healthy individuals (9.6). ANOVA results show a significant increase of IL-6 levels in the pre-dialysis group compared to alter groups. No significant change on PPD was appreciated.
Conclusion: Treatment of moderate to severeperiodontitis in ESRD populations will result in decreased IL-6 levels and, more importantly, decreased incidence of atherosclerotic complications awaits the result of interceptive clinical trials in this population

Background: The aim of the present study is to assess salivary Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances (TBARS) levels in pregnant and non-pregnant women with gingivitis before and after scaling.
Materials and Method: Fifteen subjects (Non-pregnant) were selected out of the patients who attended the Department of Periodontics, Sree Balaji Dental College, Pallikaranai, Chennai. Fifteen subjects (Pregnant second trimester) were selected out of the patients who attended Velachery K.S Hospital, Chennai. Periodontal examination is done and again evaluated after scaling (30 days). Collection of saliva and assessment of TBARS is done. Assessment of TBARS is done by TBARS assay using thiobarbituric acid as a reagent. Statistical analysis done using student T test.
Results: Results indicated that the level of salivary TBARS in non-pregnant individuals after scaling is reduced and is statistically significant and the level of salivary TBARS in pregnant individuals after scaling also reduced but it is not statistically significant.
Conclusion: Gingivitis in pregnancy is not a contributing factor for the oxidative stress.

Background: The Anaemia of chronic disease (ACD) is a prevalent, poorly understood condition that afflicts patients with a wide variety of diseases, including infections, malignancies and rheumatologic disorders.
Materials and Method: 40 patients 20-65 years of age with chronic periodontitis were assessed before and after periodontal therapy for Hb, ESR, Erythrocyte count, MCV, MCH, MCHC and PROHEPCIDIN (ELISA).
Results: A significant (p<.000) increase in RBC (4.581) and Hb (12.77) values were estimated after SRP compared to baseline. Prohepcidin levels decreased insignificantly after SRP. Tailed t test results shows significant correlation at the 0.01 level between RBC parameters but no significance between probing depth or prohepcidin values with RBC parameters.
Conclusion: The results conclude that reduction in periodontal inflammation by scaling and ischolar_main planning improves RBC count and hemoglobin level significantly Prohepcidin levels decreases with periodontal treatment but rather insignificantly.
