본 연구의 목적은 비외과적 치주치료시에 부가적으로 사용하기 위해 개발한 테트라싸이클린 젤의 효과를 임상지수, 치은 열구액양 및 치은열구액내 효소활성도 측정을 통해 평가함에 있다. 치주낭 깊이가 4mm 이상 6mm이하인 구치가 편악당 적어도 2개 이상 존재하는 중등도 치주염에 이환된 환자 23명을 선택하여, 한 편악에서는 치근활택술 만을 시행하였고, 다른 한 편악에는 치근활택술 후 테트라싸이클린 젤을 치은연하로 주입한 뒤 치근면 처리하였다. 사용된 임상검사 지수는 치태지수, 치은지수, 치주낭 깊이, 치은부착 상실도 및 탐침시 출혈로, 각각 치료시작 전과 치료 후 4, 12주에 검사하였으며, 치은열구액내 효소활성도 검사를 위해 치은열구액을 치료시작 전과 치료 후 1, 2, 4, 12주에 각각 채취하고 치은열구액 양을 조사한 뒤 Lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)와 Beta-glucuronidase(BG)의 활성도를 측정하였고, 효소활성도는 LDH는 340nm에서, BG는 550nm에서 각각 흡광도를 조사 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 임상지수를 측정 비교한 결과 치근활택술 만으로 치료한 군과 치근활택술 후 테트라싸이클린 젤을 병용한 군 모두에서 임상적으로 치은건강의 현저한 향상을 관찰할 수 있었으나, 통계상 두 군간의 유의성있는 차이는 발견되지 않았다. 2. 치은열구액 양은 치근활택술 후 테트라싸이클린 젤을 병용한 군이 치근활택술만 시행한 군보다 치료 후 2주와 4주에 유의성 있게 감소하였다. 3. LDH와 BG 효소 활성도는 두 군 모두 현저히 감소하였고, 비록 통계학적인 유의성은 관찰할 수 없었으나 치근활택술 후 테트라싸이클린 젤을 병용한 군에서 감소량이 더 크게 나타났다.

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of 5% tetracycline(Tc) with or without citric acid on periodontally diseased root surfaces. Six single-rooted teeth extracted from one patient was selected and received thorough scaling and root planning, followed by saline irrigation. Each one tooth was divided into eight fragments with a thin separating disc. Total 48 fragments were prepared and setted into 4 groups for this study. Group I (control group)were treated with saline. Group II were treated with 5% Tc gel. Group III were treated with 33% citric acid-5% Tc gel. Group IV were treated with Tc solution. All the specimens are evaluated under Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM). Group I showed large amount of debris in spite of thorough scaling and root planing, but Group II, III & IV showed clean and soft root surface texture. In higher magnification(x3, 000), Group II, III & IV showed nunmerous dentinal tubules, especially Group IV showed collagen fibrils. In the present study, Tc gel and Tc gel with citric showed clinically successful result when treated on periodontally diseased root surface, in vitro.

The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of 5% tetracycline(Tc) gel on healing of gingival tissue and change of diseased root surface when used with nonsurgical procedure. 7 patients with advanced periodontitis were received thorough scaling and root planning, followed by saline irrigation on 10 randomly selected control teeth and Tc gel application for 5 minutes with specifically designed plastic instrument of 10 test teeth in contralateral side. At 0, 1, 7, 14, and 21 days after treatment, biopsy and extraction were carried out. At day 7, Tc group showed decreased inflammation and delayed proliferation of pocket epithelium in comparison with control group which was continued for all experimental days. Scanning electron microscopic finding revealed demineralized and cleaned root surface with exposed dentinal tubules in Tc gel group. In the present study, clinically successful result is expected with combined use of nonsurgical periodontal therapy and intrapocket application of Tc gel.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the substantivity of experimentally developed gel type tetracycline HCl and a mixture of tetracycline-citric acid gel, and compare to those of solution type tetracycline HCl. 11 extracted anterior teeth were subjected to this study. After scaling and root planing teeth were randomly divided into 3 treatments groups : group 1; 3 teeth were irrigated with tetracycline HCl(50mg/ml) solution , group 2; tetracycline gel (5%) was inserted in the periodontal pockets of 3 teeth, group 3; a mixture of tetracycline and citric acid gel was inserted in the pockets of 3 teeth. And 2 teeth treated in 0.9 % sterile saline served as controls. After 5-minute exposure, each tooth immediately extracted and incubated at room temperature for 22 days in tris-buffered saline as a desorption media. The total volume of TBS was removed and replaced with fresh TBS, at 24-h intervals. Removed desorption media transferred to a sterile vial and stored at -70 oC. This procedure was repeated every 24 h throughout the 22-day desorption period. Using Porphyromonas gingivalis as an indicator organism, a microtiter assay was used to evaluate antimicrobial activity desorbed from the teeth. 1. 50mg/ml tetracycline HCl solution exhibited the longest antimicrobial activity. Compared to saline treated group, it showed significant difference on the day 1 and day 2 desorption period. 2. The ODs of 5% tetracycline gel and a mixture of tetracycline-citric acid gel were significantly different during the first 24 hour only. 3. There was no statistically significant difference after the day 3 between the groups.(p<0.05). Despite our expectation a mixture of tetracycline-citric acid gel did not show longer antimicrobial activities than those of tetracycline gel, and the solution type exhibited the longest activities. Because the gel type agents may stay in the subgingival environment longer than the solution, if the teeth were not extracted immediately after the delivery of the agent, the result could be different. hus this result suggests the possibilities of practical use of these kind of gel type agents.
