Integrative Treatment Of Periodontitis

In this paper we summarized the study and knowledge of Chronic Adult Periodontitis(CAP) on both Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Western Medicine(WD) Wemade the contrast between TCM and MD on the pathogeny, pathogenesis and therapyBased on the weakness for both of them, We presented the combination of TCM and WDas the better treatment of CAP We compared the combination of TCM and WD with the effect of WD, including 190teeth of 19 selected patients. They were divided into two teams, 102 teeth of 10 cases asthe test group and the other as the control one. The former was treated by the ultrasonicscaling with the herb rinse and the latter was treated by distilled water after one week ofthe supraginggival scaling. They both kept for 4 weeks, 3 times one week. Before andafter treatment, Probing Depth (PD), Sulcus bleeding Index (SBI), movement of toothwere measured, the syndromes of gingival were observed for changes. The study showed that the total validity rate of the test group was 91.97% and of thecontrol one was 76.14% .The significant effect rate of the former was 31.37% and theother was 21.59%. They demonstrated the evident antiinflammation effect of TCM. Theadvantage of TCM was to slow resolution, promote circulation of blood and facilitateregeneration of bone by detoxifcation and removing blood stasis. In a word, the combination of TCM and WD can improve each other to promote thecurative effect, will widen consideration and pioneer a new view in study in the filed ofcuring the chronic oral cavity disease.
