Objectives:
Helicobacter pylori (H.
Pylori) is a Gram
(-), microaerophilic bacteria and the etiological factor of chronic active
gastritis and peptic ulcer. Some studies indicated that this bacterium found at
oral cavity which is a potential reservoir for stomach. Several studies showed
that H. pylori may found in saliva
and subgingival plaque of chronic periodontitis patients. However, there is no
data related to aggressive periodontitis patients. In this study, we aimed to
determine the prevalence of H. pylori
in subgingival plaque samples of chronic, aggressive periodontitis and
gingivitis patients and to increase the awareness of the patients for gastric
problems.
Materials
and Methods: This study included 155 patients (61 with gingivitis,
60 with chronic periodontitis, and 34 with aggressive periodontitis) who did
not have gastric disease symptom and did not use antibiotics in the last 3
months. The subgingival plaque samples were taken using sterile paper points.
The existence of H. pylori, A. actinomycetemcomitans,
and P. gingivalis
was detected by RT-PCR.
Results: H. pylori was not detected in any groups
at the end of microbiological analysis.
However, a high occurrence of A. actinomycetemcomitans (97.1%) and P. gingivalis
(100%) was observed in the aggressive periodontitis group. However, A. actinomycetemcomitans
and P. gingivalis were found in 30% and 21.7% of patients,
respectively, with chronic periodontitis. A.
actinomycetemcomitans and P. gingivalis
were found in 24.6% of patients in the gingivitis group.
Conclusions: H. pylori were not detected in samples, indicating that subgingival plaque may not
be a primary reservoir for this bacterium.

Amaç: Helicobacter pylori (H. Pylori),
bir gram (-), mikroaerofilik bakteri olup, kronik aktif gastrit ve peptik
ülserin etyolojik faktörüdür. Bazı çalışmalar, bu bakterinin, oral kavitede
bulunduğunda, mide için potansiyel rezervuar olabileceğini göstermiştir. Çeşitli
çalışmalar, H. pylori'nin kronik periodontitisli hastaların tükrük ve
subgingival plaklarında görülebileceğini göstermiştir. Bununla birlikte agresif
periodontitis hastaları ile ilgili herhangi bir veri yoktur. Bu çalışmada, kronik, agresif
periodontitis ve gingivitis hastalarının subgingival plak örneklerinde H.
pylori prevalansını saptamayı ve hastaların gastrik problemler konusunda
bilinçlenmesini arttırmayı amaçladık.
Gereç
ve Yöntem: Bu çalışma,
gastrik hastalık semptomu olmayan ve son 3 ayda antibiyotik kullanmayan 155
hasta (61 adet gingivitis, 60'ı kronik periodontitisli ve 34 agresif
periodontitisli) içermekteydi. Subgingival
plak örnekleri steril paper point kullanılarak alındı. H.
pylori, A. actinomycetemcomitans ve P. gingivalis'in varlığı RT-PCR ile tespit
edildi.
Bulgular: Mikrobiyolojik
analizin sonunda herhangi bir grupta H. pylori tespit edilmedi.
Bununla birlikte, agresif periodontit grubunda yüksek
oranda A. actinomycetemcomitans (%97.1) ve P. gingivalis (%100) görülmüştür. Bununla birlikte, A.
actinomycetemcomitans ve P. gingivalis, kronik periodontitisli hastaların
sırasıyla %30 ve %21.7'sinde bulunmuştur. A. actinomycetemcomitans ve P.
gingivalis gingivitisli hastaların %24.6'sında bulundu.
Sonuç: H. pylori, örneklerde saptanmamış
olması, subgingival plağın bu bakteri için birincil rezervuar olmayabileceğini
gösterdi.
