About this trial
The goal of this observational study is to study the molecular markers of stress in blood samples from people who are having periodontal surgery. The main question it aims to answer are:
* How do the levels of inflammatory molecules in the blood change during a periodontal surgery? * How are the levels of inflammatory molecules in a person having surgery different from the levels in a person having a nonsurgical procedure? * Participants will be people who are having a periodontal surgery or a nonsurgical periodontal treatment as part of their dental care. Participants will be asked to let the investigator take blood samples from them before, during, and after the procedure is being done. The blood will later be analyzed for substances in the blood that are associated with inflammation.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Adults 21-75 years of age
Systemically healthy
Non-smoker
scheduled to receive nonsurgical or surgical periodontal treatment under IV sedation
Disqualifiers
Patients who have localized form of the disease (less than 30% of available tooth/implant sites are affected with the disease)
Non-english speaking individuals since informed consent form will be in English only.
Patients with uncontrolled systemic diseases (such as metabolic diseases, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure) since these types of chronic inflammatory challenges would cause increase levels of circulatory serum pro-inflammatory markers.
Pregnant patients (pregnancy will be reported by the patient) since pregnancy itself would affect circulatory serum pro-inflammatory markers.
