The Renew Procedure is an elective comprehensive surgical and prosthetic intervention designed to address severe oral health issues, particularly periodontitis, and by systematically eliminating sources of chronic inflammation in the mouth, overall systemic health may improve. Additionally, restoring functionality and aesthetics to the mouth can significantly enhance a patient's quality of life. This study investigates whether improvements in oral health via the Renew Procedure correlate with measurable reductions in depressive symptoms, as assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), a pre- and post-operative assessment administered to patients undergoing full-mouth rehabilitation with the Renew Procedure. The results indicate a statistically significant decrease in PHQ-9 scores, suggesting that the intervention may contribute to improved mental health outcomes. These findings support the need for integrated healthcare approaches that recognize the interconnections between oral health, systemic inflammation, and mental well-being.
修复程序是一种选择性的综合外科和修复干预措施，旨在解决严重的口腔健康问题，特别是牙周炎，通过系统地消除口腔中的慢性炎症源，整体全身健康状况可能会得到改善。此外，恢复口腔的功能和美观可以显著提高患者的生活质量。本研究调查了通过修复程序改善口腔健康是否与使用患者健康问卷-9（PHQ-9）评估的抑郁症状的可测量减少相关，PHQ-9是对接受修复程序全口康复的患者进行术前和术后评估。结果表明，PHQ-9评分在统计学上有显著下降，表明该干预措施可能有助于改善心理健康结果。这些发现支持了综合医疗保健方法的必要性，这种方法认识到口腔健康、全身炎症和心理健康之间的相互联系。
