Résumé
Control of infection and inflammation is crucial for the success of periodontal treatment. In this study, in-situ forming implants (ISFI) loaded with chlorhexidine dihydrochloride (CHX) and ibuprofen (IBU) were developed and tested to optimize periodontal treatment outcomes. Release profiles were promising. Exposure to 1.5% and 5.3% CHX-IBU loaded ISFI's release media decreased significantly the P.gingivalis growth up to 20-fold and 35-fold, respectively, after 48h (p < 0.05). The metabolic activity assay of gingival epithelial cells (EC) demonstrated 1.5% CHX-IBU-loaded ISFI to be non-toxic, therefore, it was selected for further experimentation. Furthermore, significant down-regulation of TNF-α release (34% at 6h and 43% at 24h, p < 0.05) in P.gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (Pg-LPS) stimulated EC exposed to 1.5% CHX-IBU ISFI release medium was demonstrated by ELISA. In vivo, 1.5% CHX-IBU ISFI was injected into the periodontal pocket in an experimental periodontitis mouse model and the reduction in inflammation and improvement in periodontal wound healing was evaluated through inflammatory cell scoring and histomorphometry at 7- and 15-days post-treatment. The results indicate that CHX-IBU loaded ISFI could be efficient as adjuvant to periodontal therapy for the control of infection and inflammation. Moreover, other (e.g., pro-regenerative) drugs could be incorporated into ISFI to further improve periodontal treatment outcomes.
