Abstract:
Objective: To study the effects of hyperbaric oxyge(HBO) in the treatment of periodontitis.Methods: 60 Guinea pigs were divided into 3 groups, 20 animals each group: ①Experimental periodontitis was induced by silk suture and feeding with the food containing 100 g/L of sugar and then exposed to 0.25 MPa of HBO for 60 min once a day when periodontitis established; ② the other 20 animals were simillary treated to group ① but not exposed to HBO; ③ another 20 animals were used as controls. HBO treatment was conducted for 2 weeks. Samples of periodontal tissues were obtained 0,4,8 and 10 weeks after treatment and prepared for histopathological study and electron microscopic observation.Results: In the treated group there were fewer macrophages in gingiva and periodontal ligment, more blood vessles, less absorption of alveolar bone, more osteoblasts and more osteogenesis in the bone. There were fewer metochodria and rough endo reticulum in plasmacytes, macrophages and osteoclasts; and more in fibroblasts, endothelial cells of blood vessles and osteoblasts. Conclusion: HBO may improve blood supply, inhibit macrophage and bone absorption.
