Adherence to long‐term supportive periodontal therapy in groups with different periodontal risk profiles

Abstract: Aim To examine changes of the periodontal risk assessment (PRA) of patients during long‐term supportive periodontal therapy (SPT) and to examine the adherence to recommended visit intervals. Material and Methods Retrospective data from 372 SPT patients were evaluated before and after active periodontal therapy (APT) and at least 5 years later. After APT and regularly during SPT, PRA was performed for all included patients (low‐risk/moderate‐risk/high‐risk profile) and they were advised to adhere to 3/6‐/or 12‐… Show more

“…These findings suggest that a 3-month SPC protocol is effective in limiting long-term tooth loss in periodontitis patients showing a PerioRisk level of 3 or 4 whereas appears inefficient when applied to patients with the highest PerioRisk level. When considering that high-risk patients are also those showing less adherence to the SPC program in the long term [25,[33][34][35], the adoption of a SPC program based on a more stringent (i.e., < 3-month) interval between sessions might represent a weak option to enhance SPC efficacy over time. Considering that patients with PerioRisk level 5 are significantly different in terms of smoking and disease-associated markers (Table 8), a more efficient treat-to-target approach based on smoking cessation program [36][37][38] as well as a more intense treatment of pockets and periodontal inflammation may be recommended prior to SPC enrollment in individuals at the highest risk level, particularly if not complying with the suggested SPC recall interval.…”

“…The microbes, which re-colonize a subgingival pocket, could be either residual micro-organisms following incomplete instrumentation or the extension of a growing and maturing supragingival plaque and there is evidence towards the former [58]. The periodontal treatment induced shifts in the subgingival ecosystem can be maintained in balance in the long-term through meticulous home-care plaque control measures and by supportive periodontal therapy that entails professional removal of the accumulated soft and hard deposits on the affected root surfaces and reiteration of oral-hygiene instructions for home care [59].…”

“…Com relação a amostra do presente estudo, foi observado que a maioria dos pacientes afirmaram não realizar uma visita periódica ao cirurgião-dentista, o que pode ser a razão para resultados de agravamento no quadro periodontal (Serino, Ström, 2009;Sonnenschein et al, 2020). Apesar desta constatação preocupante, sabe-se que a manutenção periodontal feita de forma rigorosa pode apresentar resultados bastante duradouros (Axelsson, Nyström, Lindhe., 2004), e compatíveis com a saúde periodontal (Fransson et al, 2005;Pjetursson, Heimisdottir, 2018).…”

Além disso, evidência recente aponta que mesmo pacientes com perfil de alto risco periodontal podem obter sucesso em manter dentes por longos períodos de tempo e até mesmo passarem a ser considerados pacientes de menor risco que no início do tratamento, por meio do controle da inflamação e redução de bolsas, o que nos indica que o encorajamento e motivação do paciente a aderir as visitas de manutenção é um aliado do periodontista (Sonnenschein et al, 2020).…”
