Drugs and Biologics

Drugs and Important Biological Agents (IBA) related to Gingival Pocket:

1.	CalciumIBA 11/01/2005 - "Calcium antagonists and deep gingival pockets in the population-based SHIP study." 01/01/2006 - "Subjects treated with calcium antagonists had significantly deeper gingival pockets than their drug-free counterparts (P <.0001). " 11/01/2005 - "Subjects treated with calcium antagonistic drugs had significantly deeper gingival pockets than their drug-free counterparts. " 06/01/1962 - "The relative proportions of sodium, potassium and calcium in gingival pocket fluid."
2.	Immunoglobulin G (IgG)IBA 04/01/1990 - "actinomycetemcomitans was found again in the gingival pockets of the boy, and once more his polymorphonuclear leukocytes had a decreased capacity to ingest IgG-coated latex particles. " 10/01/2000 - "Studies on the humoral and cellular immune response in periodontal disease indicate that: a) homing of relevant immune cells takes place within the periodontium; b) plasma cells are among the most active secretory cells in the gingiva; c) that immunoglobulin subclasses are similar between blood and the gingival pocket fluid for IgG but not for IgA; and that d) an individual's ability to mount a specific antibody response to periodontopathogenic organisms may indicate their susceptibility to the disease and their likely response to treatment. "
3.	AntralIBA 03/01/1996 - "This study was designed to compare the incidence of Hp in oral cavity (saliva, dental plaques and gingival pockets) using Campylobacter-like organism (CLO) test and culture and in the presence of Hp in the stomach using 14C-urea breath test (UBT), CLO-test and culture (antral biopsy specimens). " 05/01/2002 - "Hp DNA assessed by PCR in 30 DUs before eradication of Hp was detected in 95% of antral mucosa, 90% in corpus mucosa, and in 35% of gingival pocket material, and after eradication therapy Hp DNA values fell to 25%, 20%, and 10%, respectively. "
4.	Urea (Carbamide)FDA LinkGeneric 05/01/2002 - "The [13C]urea breath test (UBT), gastroscopy, and Hp culture from gastric biopsies were carried out, and material was collected from the oral cavity (gingival pocket) for bacteriological culture and genomic DNA studies. "
5.	PlasticsIBA 10/01/2004 - "This in vitro study, using a metal construction and a plastic material with a deformation coefficient similar to that of gingival pocket, may be suggested as a good model to test intra- and inter-examiner differences in periodontal probing. "
6.	Immunoglobulins (Immunoglobulin)IBA 10/01/2000 - "Studies on the humoral and cellular immune response in periodontal disease indicate that: a) homing of relevant immune cells takes place within the periodontium; b) plasma cells are among the most active secretory cells in the gingiva; c) that immunoglobulin subclasses are similar between blood and the gingival pocket fluid for IgG but not for IgA; and that d) an individual's ability to mount a specific antibody response to periodontopathogenic organisms may indicate their susceptibility to the disease and their likely response to treatment.

7.	Immunoglobulin A (IgA)IBA 10/01/2000 - "Studies on the humoral and cellular immune response in periodontal disease indicate that: a) homing of relevant immune cells takes place within the periodontium; b) plasma cells are among the most active secretory cells in the gingiva; c) that immunoglobulin subclasses are similar between blood and the gingival pocket fluid for IgG but not for IgA; and that d) an individual's ability to mount a specific antibody response to periodontopathogenic organisms may indicate their susceptibility to the disease and their likely response to treatment.

10.	Pancreatic Elastase (Elastase)IBA 04/01/1994 - "These findings suggest that, in the anaerobic environment of the gingival pocket, elastase and possibly also other azurophilic granule products are released in higher amounts than under fully oxygenated conditions. " 04/01/1993 - "In the saliva samples collected prior to treatment and following non-surgical periodontal therapy, the activity of salivary elastase correlated significantly with the number of deep gingival pockets (PD > or = 6 mm) and with either gingival index (GI) or the percentage of bleeding sites (BOP%). "

Therapies and Procedures

1.	Crowns (Crown, Dental) 10/01/1981 - "A highly significant reduction in the depth of the gingival pockets was achieved and the average loss of bony support during the observation time was only 0.3 mm. However, an increased bleeding index, loss of marginal bone and deepening of the gingival pockets were found around teeth provided with artificial crowns, especially when the crowns had ill-fitting margins extended into the gingival pocket."
2.	Transplants (Transplant) 07/01/2014 - "The study was conducted on 100 parodontopatics patients, which had gingival pockets of at least infrabonies 8/10 mm. The histological evaluation was performed with samples after one year from the graft. "
3.	Prostheses and Implants (Prosthesis) 01/01/1984 - "Sixty eight individuals treated with conventional partial dentures participated in a clinical study of the hygienic conditions around supporting teeth and the partial dentures, the occurrence of increased mobility of supporting teeth and deepened gingival pockets, the incidence of caries, impaired retention and the frequency of use of the prosthesis. "
4.	Root Planing 09/01/1982 - "The findings are discussed in relation to recent observations from clinical trials demonstrating loss of clinical attachment following repeated scaling and root planing in sites with shallow gingival pockets."
5.	Partial Denture (Partial Dentures) 01/01/1984 - "Sixty eight individuals treated with conventional partial dentures participated in a clinical study of the hygienic conditions around supporting teeth and the partial dentures, the occurrence of increased mobility of supporting teeth and deepened gingival pockets, the incidence of caries, impaired retention and the frequency of use of the prosthesis.
