Characterization of the release profile of doxycycline by PLGA microspheres adjunct to non-surgical periodontal therapy

Abstract: The aim of this pilot study was to assess the release of locally delivered doxycycline by poly (l-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) microspheres in the periodontal pocket of patients with chronic periodontitis, treated by non-surgical periodontal therapy. Nineteen sites of non-adjacent teeth of four different patients were evaluated. Five milligram of PLGA microspheres loaded with 16 doxycycline hyclate (DOX) was administered per periodontal site. To quantify DOX released into the periodontal pocket, gingival crevi… Show more

“…12 Ten-percent DOX gel has been used in the treatment of periodontitis and has been proven to more effectively reduce the periodontal probing depth (PPD) and improve the clinical attachment level (CAL) compared with SRP alone, thereby improving the quality of life of individuals with periodontitis. 13,14,15 However, Garrett et al 16 reported that the treatment of moderate to severe periodontitis with 10% DOX was only as effective as SRP.…”

“…Polymers like polylactides (PLA), polyglycolides (PGA), poly lactide-co-glycolides (PLGA), are approved by the World Health Organization (WHO) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as materials that can be used in medicine and pharmacy [28] . Moura et al, demonstrated a successful sustained release of locally delivered doxycycline by poly lactide-co-glycolide (PLGA) microspheres in the periodontal pocket of patients with chronic periodontitis treated by non-surgical periodontal therapy [29] .…”

“…Nowadays, various antimicrobial agents have been loaded into different dosage forms to prolong their persistence time in periodontal tissue. Tetracycline group antibiotics, including doxycycline hydrochloride [36,117,125], tetracycline [132,133], and minocycline [122,124]; nitroimidazoles antibiotics like metronidazole [116,120] and tinidazole [55] are mostly used. Other antibiotics like quinolones have also been reported (Figure 5a).…”

“…With the application of nanotechnology, micro/nano-scaled carriers are reported in the DDS for oral diseases, which is more comfortable and multifunctional [34]. The carriers could be designed and modified for the loading of anti-bacterial agents [35][36][37], anti-inflammatory drugs [38], and biomolecules like protein and gene, growth factors, which expanded the application of DDS in oral diseases [39][40][41]. These nano-scaled DDS are combined with dental materials like dental restoration systems and dental implants for anti-bacterial modification without affecting their basic properties [42,43].…”
