BACKGROUND
Halitosis is the term used to define an unpleasant odor emanating from the mouth. However, no studies have evaluated the causes and treatment of halitosis in the population of older adults with denture.
METHODS
A randomized, controlled trial is proposed. The patients will be divided into 2 groups: G1: older adults who wear complete dentures and will be treated with tongue scraper (n = 20); G2 older adults who wear complete dentures and will be treated with PDT (n = 20). If the halitosis persists, the participants will be submitted to hygiene procedures for the mucosa and dentures. The evaluation of halitosis will be made before and after treatments, with OralChroma. If the halitosis is solved, the participants will return after 1 week for an additional evaluation. Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) will be administered by a calibrated examiner on the day the patient history is taken (baseline) and 1 week after treatment for halitosis.
DISCUSSION
This protocol will determine the effectiveness of photodynamic therapy regarding the reduction of halitosis in older adults with complete denture.
TRIAL REGISTRATION
This protocol was registered in ClinicalTrial.gov, under number NCT03960983. It was first posted and last updated in May 23, 2019. https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03960983.
背景
口臭是用于定义从口腔散发出的难闻气味的术语。然而，尚无研究评估佩戴假牙的老年人群口臭的病因及治疗方法。
方法
拟进行一项随机对照试验。患者将被分为两组：G1组：佩戴全口假牙并将接受舌刷治疗的老年人（n = 20）；G2组：佩戴全口假牙并将接受光动力疗法（PDT）治疗的老年人（n = 20）。如果口臭持续存在，参与者将接受口腔黏膜和假牙的清洁程序。使用OralChroma在治疗前后对口臭进行评估。如果口臭得到解决，参与者将在1周后返回进行额外评估。口腔健康影响程度量表（OHIP - 14）将由经过校准的检查人员在采集患者病史当天（基线）以及治疗口臭1周后进行评估。
讨论
本方案将确定光动力疗法对减少佩戴全口假牙老年人口臭的有效性。
