Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of Entamoeba gingivalis and Trichomonas tenax in periodontitis and gingivitis patients. Methods: The study consisted of 107 periodontitis patients and 68 gingivitis patients. Bacterial plaque samples were collected with a curette from the deepest pocket in each quadrant and placed into separate tubes containing sterile 0.9% saline solution. Samples were examined at a magnification of ×400 by light microscopy. Cultivation for T. tenax was performed using the same samples, and the cultures were examined after 48 hours. Results: E. gingivalis was present in the samples from 38 periodontitis patients, whereas T. tenax was present in samples from only 3 periodontitis patients. Both E. gingivalis and T. tenax were found together in the samples from 2 periodontitis patients. In total, 22 and 2 gingivitis patients were found to be infected with E. gingivalis and with T. tenax, respectively. Only 1 gingivitis patient was found to be infected with both E. gingivalis and T. tenax. Conclusion: In our study, oral protozoa were found in a high percentage in periodontitis and gingivitis patients. We believe that the prevalence of E. gingivalis and T. tenax should be determined via new studies and, in particular, the protection principles should be complied with.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada periodontitis ve gingivitis hastalarında E. gingivalis ve T. tenax yaygınlığının araştırılması amaçlanmıştır.Yöntem: Çalışmamıza 107 periodontitis hastası ve 68 gingivitis hastası alınmıştır. Ağzında tespit edilen mevcut mikrobiyal dental plaklar kazınmış ve kazınan plak parçaları, içerisinde % 0,9 serum fizyolojik bulunan tüplere konulmuştur. Örnekler ışık mikroskobu altında incelenmiştir.Ayrıca T. tenax için aynı örnekten bir miktar da besiyerine ekilmiş ve 37°C’de inkübe edilmiştir.Bulgular: Periodontitis hastalarının 38’inde E. gingivalis, üçünde T. tenax ve ikisinde hem E. gingivalis hem de T. tenax birlikte tespit edilmiştir. Gingivitis hastalarının ise 22’sinde E. gingivalis, 2’sinde T. tenax, 1’inde ise E. gingivalis ve T. tenax birlikte bulunmuştur.Sonuç: Çalışmamızda periodontitis ve gingivitis hastalarında oral protozoonlar yüksek oranda bulunmuştur. Yeni yapılacak çalışmalarla E. gingivalisve T. tenax prevalansının belirlenmesi ve özellikle korunma prensiplerine uyulması gerektiği kanısındayız.
