Periodontal disease is an inflammatory condition which involves the interaction between periodontal pathogen, acquired and environmental factors and the host. Along with the gold standard of scaling and ischolar_main planning the recent technologies play a crucial role in recognizing the disease in early stage, eradicating the periodontal pathogens and causative factors which were previously inaccessible, delivering medication without systemic complications and improved home care techniques. The present review is focused on prevailing treatment modalities of periodontitis patient, chemico-mechanical approaches of treating patients and the use of home care treatment installations to reduce the needless dental visits. The review also attempts to throw lights on the current trends and future developments in some of these treatment choices.Keywords

Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory condition caused due to multiple factors which results in destruction of connective tissue and alveolar bone that support the teeth. Bacterial plaque is one of the main factors that accelerate the process of destruction. Therefore, controlling the destructive effects of this factor by including agents that could reduce or inhibit the ongoing damage is important. Proanthocyanidins (PA) have various properties including antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anticarcinogenic thus possessing the ability to enhance gingival health and thus preventing further destruction. There are many studies that have proved these properties both through in vitro and in vivo categories. Thus, this review makes an attempt to discuss the impact of PA’s on the pathogenesis of periodontitis and also to show whether PA’s could be developed as a therapeutic agent for periodontitis.Keywords

Smoking is one of the major risk factors for cancer affecting the respiratory tract, oesophagus, stomach, pancreas, uterine cervix, kidney and bladder. Smoking tobacco is responsible for approximately 30% of cancer deaths world over. Nicotine dependence is now considered a disease by WHO (World health organization). The widespread use of tobacco in different forms leading to its addiction is among the biggest preventable cause of death today.
Smoking cessation can not only easily result in the decline of premature deaths but also improve the quality of life. Smoking cessation comprises an integral component of various national and international tobacco control policies. Tobacco quitting programs focussing on diagnosis, treatment and prevention of Nicotine dependence should form a major part of primary health care. Smoking cessation can reduce the chance of carcinomas, strokes,and several cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. The habit of smoking is very difficult to quit and requires a very strong will power, motivation and assistance. Several method like Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT), other pharmacological intervention, psychotherapy and counselling are employed to help the tobacco users to quit smoking. In recent years there is a lot of interest in the use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) techniques, like essential oils and acupuncture as therapeutic alternatives for cessation of smoking. Essential oils and aromatherapy,play a very important role in smoking cessation and their role in smoking cessation should not be ignored even though very little information is available regarding their use. This review shall help in understanding the different essential oils available and their uses which can prove beneficial in smoking cessation.

One of the challenging problems faced by general dental practitioner is treatment and management of teeth with furcation involvement. In advanced furcation involvement cases when other treatment options are precluded for financial or other reasons, tunnel preparation procedure remains the preferable option to extraction. Specially in the posterior teeth gaining access for oral hygiene procedures is difficult and thereby this technique could be considered as an alternate and successful treatment modality. This case report presents the management of a grade IV furcation with a tunnelling approach.Keywords
