Recently, a specifically designed device was proposed that is able to nebulize particles with a diameter of approximately 16 micrometres to be used mainly in the management of diseases of the upper airway respiratory tract. The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the potential efficacy of nebulized hyaluronic acid in the management of gingivitis. The results of the statistical analysis demonstrate that there was no difference between the pocket depth as measured in the treated sites at time 0 (pre-treatment) and time 1 (15 days post-treatment).

Abstract

Recently, a specifically designed device was proposed that is able to nebulize particles with a diameter of approximately 16 micrometres to be used mainly in the management of diseases of the upper airway respiratory tract. The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the potential efficacy of nebulized hyaluronic acid in the management of gingivitis. The results of the statistical analysis demonstrate that there was no difference between the pocket depth as measured in the treated sites at time 0 (pre-treatment) and time 1 (15 days post-treatment). However, the difference between bleeding on probing as measured at time 0 and time 1 indicated an improvement on both sides, with a slightly greater improvement on the side treated with HA.
